About this study

Official title: A Phase III Open, Randomized, Parallel, Multi-center Study in Children Aged 6 - 35 Months to Compare the Immunogenicity and Safety of a Single 0.5 mL Dose of Inflexal V With a 0.25 mL 2-dose Regimen of Inflexal V Administered According to a 0/4 Week Schedule

The study aims to evaluate the immunogenicity of a single full (0.5 mL) dose and a 0.25 mL 2-dose regime of Inflexal V in unprimed children aged 6 - <36 months, using the EMA guideline for the re-registration of the seasonal influenza vaccine in adults (aged ≥18 ≤60 years) as reference.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Immunogenicity of a Single Full (0.5 mL) Dose and a 0.25 mL 2-dose Regimen of Inflexal V, Using the EMA Guideline for the Re-registration of the Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in Adults (Aged ≥18 to ≤60 Years) as Reference

    Seroprotection rate

    Measured: This assesment was done for immunogenicity data collected at Day 29 after completion of designated vaccination regimen

  2. Immunogenicity of a Single Full (0.5 mL) Dose and a 0.25 mL 2-dose Regimen of Inflexal V, Using the EMA Guideline for the Re-registration of the Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in Adults (Aged ≥18 to ≤60 Years) as Reference

    Seroconversion rate

    Measured: This assesment was done for immunogenicity data collected at Day 29 after completion of designated vaccination regimen

  3. Immunogenicity of a Single Full (0.5 mL) Dose and a 0.25 mL 2-dose Regimen of Inflexal V, Using the EMA Guideline for the Re-registration of the Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in Adults (Aged ≥18 to ≤60 Years) as Reference

    GMT-fold increase - calculated as the GMT on Day 22 divided by the baseline GMT value

    Measured: This assesment was done for immunogenicity data collected at Day 29 after completion of designated vaccination regimen

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With Local and Systemic Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: Solicited local and systemic AEs were collected from Day 1 (day of vaccination) to Day 4 inclusive using a subject diary

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Inflexal V in people with Influenza, run by Crucell Holland BV at 2 sites in Italy.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Italy. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 May 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Immunogenicity of a Single Full (0.5 mL) Dose and a 0.25 mL 2-dose Regimen of Inflexal V, Using the EMA Guideline for the Re-registration of the Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in Adults (Aged ≥18 to ≤60 Years) as Reference (time frame: This assesment was done for immunogenicity data collected at Day 29 after completion of designated vaccination regimen). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Feb 2014.
