About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity, Reactogenicity and Safety of the Trivalent Influenza Subunit Vaccine Influvac® for the Northern Hemisphere Season 2012/2013. An Open-label, Baseline-controlled Study in Two Age Groups: Adult Subjects ≥ 18 and ≤ 60 Years and Elderly Subjects ≥ 61 Years of Age

Annual study to investigate influenza vaccine (flu vaccine) developed for the 2012/2013 season for the prevention of influenza infection. The immunizing effect is being investigated, as well as its tolerability and safety.

Read the detailed description

An open, baseline-controlled study in two age groups: adults and elderly. The subjects will be screened within 14 days prior to or at Visit 1 (Day 1). At Visit 1 (Day 1) subjects will be vaccinated after blood sampling for baseline serum antihemagglutinin antibody titration. Subjects will be asked to record local and systemic reactions daily on a diary at home for 72 hours after vaccination. One week later (Visit 2, Day 8) the subjects will return to the study site to hand in the diary and for the assessment of safety and tolerability (reactogenicity and overall inconvenience). Three weeks after vaccination (Visit 3, Day 22) the subjects will return to the study site for blood sampling to assess immunogenicity and for the assessment of safety and tolerability.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Trivalent influenza subunit vaccine Influvac in people with Prophylaxis of Influenza, run by Abbott Biologicals at 1 site in Germany.

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 5 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 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Antihemagglutinin antibody titers and the derived parameters seroprotection, seroconversion and mean fold increase (time frame: 3 weeks). 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 Aug 2012.
