About this study

Official title: Prospective Cohort Study to Evaluate Safety and Immunogenicity of Butantan´s Fragmented, Inactivated Trivalent Influenza Vaccine in Healthy Adults and Elderly

Prospective cohort study to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of the fragmented, inactivated trivalent Influenza vaccine produced at Butantan Institute in healthy adults and elderly. The study will include a total of 120 participants: 60 participants aged 18 to 59 years in the healthy adults group, and 60 participants aged older than 60 years in the elderly group.This study will evaluate the safety of one dose of the fragmented, inactivated trivalent Influenza vaccine in the first 3 days after vaccination, as well as its immunogenicity 21 days after vaccination.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Butantan Fragmented Inactivated Trivalent Influenza VaccineBiological

    Subjects participating in the study are exposed to Butantan´s Fragmented Inactivated Trivalent Influenza Vaccine during vaccination campaign, and will have immunogenicity and safety related to the vaccine evaluated (observational study).

What is being measured

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

  1. Vaccine Immunogenicity

    Antibody response to each of the vaccine´s strains as measured by % seroconversion, increase in the geometric mean of hemagglutination-inhibition (HAI) titers and % seroprotection.

    Measured: 21 days

  2. Vaccine safety assessed by unsolicited local and systemic adverse reactions up to 3 days post vaccination

    Measured: 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Influenza, run by Butantan Institute.

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 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 21 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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?

Vaccine Immunogenicity (time frame: 21 days). The study lists 2 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 NCT02313740, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 Jul 2015.
