About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Active Comparator Controlled Study of the Immunogenicity and Safety of VAX2012Q, A Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine in Healthy Adults 18-64 Years

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, active comparator controlled study in which up to 450 healthy adults age 18-64 years will be administered either one of two dose levels of VAX2012Q or a licensed quadrivalent influenza vaccine. The subjects will be randomized at a 1:1:1 ratio.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, active comparator controlled study in which up to 450 healthy adults age 18-64 years will be administered either VAX2012Q or Fluzone. Four hundred fifty (450) subjects will be randomized 1:1:1 ratio of either 8 or 12 mcg VAX2012Q dose levels or to Fluzone® Quadrivalent vaccine.

Randomization will be stratified for age (18-49 and 50-64 years). Subjects will be stratified by two age groups (18-49 and 50-64) and randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to either 8 or 12 mcg VAX2012Q dose levels or to Fluzone® Quadrivalent vaccine. 25-35% of the total study population will be recruited into the 50-64 age group.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the seroconversion rates at Day 21 for both dose levels of VAX2012Q.

What is being measured

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

  1. Seroconversion rates to the 4 components of VAX2012Q

    Immune response to the vaccine will be measured in sera by the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay.

    Measured: Through day 21

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Safety following vaccination assessed by Adverse events (AEs)

    vital signs, laboratory test results and analgesic and antipyretic use to treat symptoms emerging post vaccination will be collected.

    Measured: Through day 21

  2. Immunogenicity of the two dose levels of VAX2012Q and of Fluzone Quadrivalent

    Immune responses to the vaccines will be measured in sera by HAI assay.

    Measured: Through day 21

  3. C-reactive protein levels

    Measure C-reactive protein levels.

    Measured: Through day 7

  4. Long term safety following vaccination assessed by Clinically significant AEs

    including Serious Adverse Events, Adverse Events of Special Interest and new onset chronic diseases, will be collected.

    Measured: After Day 21 through one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing VAX2012Q and Fluzone Quadrivalent in people with Influenza, run by VaxInnate Corporation at 6 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 10 inclusion and 23 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jun 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Seroconversion rates to the 4 components of VAX2012Q (time frame: Through day 21). 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 26 Jun 2015.
