- To describe the safety of the 2015-2016 formulation of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine, administered in a 1- or 2-dose schedule, in accordance with ACIP recommendations, in children 6 months to < 9 years of age.
Observational objectives:
- To describe the immunogenicity of the 2015-2016 formulation of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine, administered in a 1- or 2-dose schedule in accordance with ACIP recommendations, in children 6 months to < 9 years of age.
- To submit available sera from each subject to Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) for further analysis by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the FDA to support formulation recommendations for subsequent influenza vaccines.
Read the detailed description
Study participants will be assigned to the appropriate age group (6 months to < 36 months of age or 3 years to < 9 years of age) based on the subject's age at the time of enrollment. Participants aged 6 months to < 36 months will receive a 0.25 mL dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine and those aged 3 years to < 9 years will receive a 0.5 mL dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine. Participants, for whom 2 doses of influenza vaccine are recommended per ACIP guidance, will receive a second dose of Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine during Visit 2 (28 days after Visit 1).
Solicited adverse event (AE) information will be collected for 7 days after each vaccination, unsolicited AE information will be collected from Visit 1 to Visit 2 or to Visit 3 for those subjects receiving 2 doses. Serious adverse event (SAE) information will be collected from Visit 1 to Visit 2 or Visit 3, as appropriate.
Immunogenicity will be evaluated in all subjects prior to vaccination on Day 0 (Visit 1) and at Day 28 after the final vaccination using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique. For each influenza vaccine strain, pre- and post-vaccination geometric mean titers (GMTs) will be calculated.

Secondary outcomes (4)
Geometric Mean Titers of Influenza Virus Antibodies Following Vaccination With the 2015-2016 Formulation of Fluzone® Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine
Anti-influenza antibodies were measured using an hemagglutination inhibition assay.
Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and 28 days post-last vaccination
Number of Participants Who Achieved Seroprotection to Influenza Virus Antigens Pre- and Post-Vaccination With the 2015-2016 Formulation of Fluzone® Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine
Anti-influenza antibodies were measured using an hemagglutination inhibition assay. Seroprotection was defined as a pre-vaccination or post-vaccination influenza antibody titer of ≥ 1:40 (1/dilutions).
Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and 28 days post-last vaccination
Number of Participants Who Achieved Seroconversion Following Vaccination With the 2015-2016 Formulation of Fluzone® Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine

Seroconversion was defined as either a pre-vaccination HAI titer < 1:10 and a post-final vaccination titer ≥ 1:40, or a pre-vaccination titer ≥ 1:10 and at least a four-fold increase in post-final vaccination titer.
Measured: 28 days post-last vaccination
Geometric Mean Titer Ratios of Influenza Virus Antibodies Following Vaccination With the 2015-2016 Formulation of Fluzone® Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Fluzone® Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine, No Preservative in people with Influenza, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 2 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 4 inclusion and 16 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 29 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 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 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 20 Oct 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?
Number of Participants Reporting Solicited Injection-Site and Solicited Systemic Reactions Following Vaccination With the 2015-2016 Formulation of Fluzone® Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine. (time frame: Day 0 up to Day 7 post any vaccination). 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 29 Nov 2016.
