About this study

Official title: Safety and Immunogenicity Among Adults of Fluzone®, Influenza Virus Vaccine 2011-2012 Formulation (Intramuscular Route)

The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the 2011-2012 formulation of Fluzone and Fluzone High-Dose vaccines in participants aged 65 years and older.

Objectives:

  • To describe the safety of Fluzone vaccine and Fluzone High-Dose vaccine among adults ≥ 65 years of age.
  • To describe the immunogenicity of Fluzone vaccine and Fluzone High-Dose vaccine among adults ≥ 65 years of age.
Read the detailed description

Historically, the annual safety and immunogenicity study of Fluzone vaccine has been conducted in the US in support of licenses held by sanofi pasteur in various countries.

Participants will be randomized to receive a dose of either Fluzone® or Fluzone® High-Dose vaccine and will be followed up for safety and immunogenicity. The duration of participation in the trial will be approximately 1 month.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Reporting at Least One Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With One Dose of Either Fluzone® or Fluzone® High-Dose Vaccine

    Solicited injection site reactions: Pain, Erythema and Swelling. Solicited systemic reactions: Fever (temperature), Headache, Malaise, and Myalgia.

    Grade 3 solicited reactions were defined as: Fever ≥ 39.0°C; Pain, Headache, Malaise and Myalgia, significant, prevents daily activities; Erythema and Swelling > 100 mm.

    Measured: Day 0 to up to Day 28 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Influenza Virus Vaccine: Fluzone® 2011-2012 Formulation and Influenza Virus Vaccine: Fluzone® High-Dose 2011-2012 Formulation in people with Influenza, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 6 sites in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 17 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 27 May 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 16 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?

Number of Participants Reporting at Least One Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With One Dose of Either Fluzone® or Fluzone® High-Dose Vaccine (time frame: Day 0 to up to Day 28 post-vaccination). 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 27 May 2013.
