Subjects may be on chronic or as needed (prn) medications if, in the opinion of the site principal investigator or appropriate sub-investigator, they pose no additional risk to subject safety or assessment of reactogenicity and immunogenicity. Note: Topical, nasal, and inhaled medications (with the exception of steroids as outlined in the Subject Exclusion Criteria (see section 5.2)), vitamins, and contraceptives are permitted. -Oral temperature is less than 100.4 degrees F. -Pulse is 50 to 115 bpm, inclusive. -Systolic blood pressure is 85 to 150 mmHg, inclusive. -Diastolic blood pressure is 55 to 95 mmHg, inclusive. -Female subjects of childbearing potential who are not surgically sterile via tubal sterilization, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy or who are not postmenopausal for >/= 1 year must agree to practice highly effective contraception that may include, but is not limited to, abstinence from intercourse with a male partner, monogamous relationship with a vasectomized partner, male condoms with the use of applied spermicide, intrauterine devices, and licensed hormonal methods with use of a highly effective method of contraception for a minimum of 30 days prior to study product exposure and agree to practice highly effective contraception for the duration of study product exposure, including 2 months (defined as 60 days)after the last study vaccination.

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Randomized, Double-Blinded, Controlled Study in Healthy Adults to Assess the Safety, Reactogenicity, and Immunogenicity of a Monovalent Influenza A/H7N9 Virus Vaccine Administered at Different Dosages Given With and Without MF59 Adjuvant

This is a Phase II randomized, double-blinded, controlled study in up to 700 males and non-pregnant females, 19 to 64 years old, inclusive, designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine administered at different dosages (3.75, 7.5, or 15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose) given with and without MF59 adjuvant and without adjuvant (15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose and 45 mcg of HA/0.75 mL dose). Subjects will receive two doses via intramuscular injection, approximately 21 days apart. Safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity data will be collected at standard time points with safety follow-up to continue through one year post dose 2. The duration of the study for each subject will be approximately 13 months.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase II randomized, double-blinded, controlled study in up to 700 males and non-pregnant females, 19 to 64 years old, inclusive, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. The study is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine manufactured by Sanofi Pasteur administered to healthy adults at different dosages (3.75, 7.5, or 15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose) given with MF59 adjuvant manufactured by Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics and without adjuvant (15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose and 45 mcg of HA/0.75 mL dose). The A/H7N9 vaccine was made with HA antigen derived from the influenza A/Shanghai/2/2013 virus. Subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 7 groups (up to 100 subjects per group) to receive two doses of the A/H7N9 vaccine with and without MF59 adjuvant delivered intramuscularly approximately 21 days apart. The same dosage of A/H7N9 vaccine will be given to subjects at both their first and second study vaccinations. The primary objectives are to: 1) assess the safety and reactogenicity of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine following receipt of two doses administered with and without MF59 adjuvant; and 2) assess new-onset chronic medical conditions following receipt of two doses of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine administered with and without MF59 adjuvant. The duration of the study for each subject will be approximately 13 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Influenza Virus Vaccine, Monovalent A/H7N9 A/Shanghai/2/2013 and MF59 in people with Influenza, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 4 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 12 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Occurrence of solicited injection site and systemic reactogenicity on the day of each study vaccination through 7 days after each study vaccination. (time frame: Day 0 through Day 29). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01938742, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 12 Dec 2016.
