About this study

Official title: Tolerability and Immunogenicity Study of Fluval AB Suspension for Injection (Trivalent, Seasonal Influenza Vaccine, Active Ingredient Content: 15 μgHA/Strain/0.5mL) for the Use in the Season 2013/2014 in Adult and Elderly Subjects

To assess immunogenicity of a single intramuscular injection of Fluval AB suspension for injection (trivalent, seasonal influenza vaccine, active ingredient content: 15 μgHA/0.5mL of seasonal A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B influenza antigens each), as measured by haemagglutination inhibition (HI) test.

Read the detailed description

Aim of the study:

To assess immunogenicity and safety of Fluval AB seasonal influenza vaccine with 3 x 15 μgHA active ingredient in two age groups (18-59 years and ≥60 years) in accordance with CPMP/BWP/214/96: "Note for Guidance on Harmonization of Requirements for Influenza Vaccines", 12 March 1997

Primary objective:

To assess immunogenicity of a single intramuscular injection of Fluval AB suspension for injection (trivalent, seasonal influenza vaccine, active ingredient content: 15 μgHA/0.5mL of seasonal A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B influenza antigens each), as measured by haemagglutination inhibition test.

Methods:

In this open label, uncontrolled, multi-centre immunogenicity and tolerability study subjects were enrolled in two groups according to age (18-59 years and ≥60 years) and assigned to the following vaccine group:

Group 1: Single injection of Fluval AB suspension for injection. Subjects were observed for 30 minutes after the injection on Visit 1 (Day 0) for any immediate reactions.

All subjects were requested to complete a diary card to record local reactions (injection site pain, erythema, swelling, induration and ecchymosis) and systemic reactions (fever, shivering, headache, malaise, fatigue, sweating, nausea, myalgia and arthralgia) started on the day of vaccination on Visit 1 (Day 0) until 7 (seven) days following that.

All adverse events were collected during the period of Visit 1 (Day 0) to Visit 2 (between Day 21 and Day 28).

Serum samples for immunogenicity assays were collected immediately before immunization on Visit 1 (Day 0) and on Visit 2 (between Day 21 and Day 28) in all subjects. Immunogenicity was evaluated by HI test.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vaccination with Fluval AB suspension for injection in people with Influenza Prophylaxis, run by Fluart Innovative Vaccine Ltd, Hungary at 3 sites in Hungary.

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 6 inclusion and 18 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 5 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Hungary. 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 5 Apr 2021). 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?

Change in Geometric Mean Titre Ratio, A/H1N1 Strain (time frame: 21-28 days after vaccination). The study lists 9 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 5 Apr 2021.
