Trial summary

Influenza (flu) viruses change continuously, therefore also the parts of viruses used in influenza vaccines can vary from year to year. The current study is a phase III A clinical trial with a commercially available vaccine (Influvac®) supplied in pre filled syringes. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity, Reactogenicity and Safety of the Trivalent Influenza Subunit Vaccine Influvac® for the Southern Hemisphere Season 2015. An Open-Label, Baseline-Controlled Study in Two Age Groups: Adult Subjects ≥ 18 and ≤ 60 Years and Elderly Subjects ≥ 61 Years of Age

Influenza (flu) viruses change continuously, therefore also the parts of viruses used in influenza vaccines can vary from year to year. The current study is a phase III A clinical trial with a commercially available vaccine (Influvac®) supplied in pre filled syringes. The objective of this study is to investigate the immunogenicity and safety and tolerability of the changed influenza vaccine virus composition in two groups of subjects in good health: subjects aged >= 18 and <= 60 years and subjects >= 61 years of age (elderly).

What is being measured

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

  1. the Serum Antihemagglutinin Antibody Titers and the Derived Parameters Defined in the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) Note for Guidance on Harmonization of Requirements for Influenza Vaccines for Influenza Vaccines.

    Seroprotection and Seroconversion Rate for A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B Strains 3 weeks After Vaccination in non-elderly adults and elderly adults.

    Measured: 3 weeks post vaccination

  2. the Serum Antihemagglutinin Antibody Titers and the Derived Parameters Defined in the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) Note for Guidance on Harmonization of Requirements for Influenza Vaccines for Influenza Vaccines.

    Mean fold increase in HI antibody titer 3 weeks After Vaccination in non-elderly adults and elderly adults.

    Measured: 3 weeks post vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety (Unsolicited Adverse Events) and Tolerability (Reactogenicity and Overall Inconvenience) of Influvac®.

    Measured: up to 3 weeks post vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

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

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 22 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 1 site in Australia. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Dec 2016). 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?

the Serum Antihemagglutinin Antibody Titers and the Derived Parameters Defined in the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) Note for Guidance on Harmonization of Requirements for Influenza Vaccines for Influenza Vaccines. (time frame: 3 weeks post vaccination). 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?
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 22 Dec 2016.
