About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route in Subjects Aged 18 to 60 Years in the Republic of Korea

The aim of the trial is to evaluate immunogenicity and safety of the quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) and the trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) (split-virion inactivated) Northern Hemisphere (NH) 2015 2016 seasonal formulations, in subjects aged 18 to 60 years in the Republic of Korea for the registration of the QIV by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

Objectives:

  • To evaluate the immunogenicity of QIV and TIV (split-virion, inactivated) NH 2015-2016 seasonal formulations. The compliance, in terms of immunogenicity, of the QIV NH 2015-2016 formulation, with the requirements of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) Note for Guidance (NfG) CPMP/BWP/214/96 will be assessed.
  • To evaluate the safety profile of QIV and TIV (split-virion, inactivated) NH 2015-2016 seasonal formulations
Read the detailed description

All subjects will receive one dose of either QIV or TIV on Day 0. They will be monitored for safety and immunogenicity for up to Day 21 post-vaccination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Geometric Mean Titers of Influenza Antibodies Before and After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    Immunogenicity was evaluated using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 21 post-vaccination

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroprotection Against Influenza Antigens Before and After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    Immunogenicity was evaluated using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique. Seroprotection was defined as titers ≥ 40 (1/dil) on Day 0 and Day 21.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 21 post-vaccination

  3. Percentage of Participants With Influenza Antibodies Titers < 10 (1/Dil) Before and After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    Immunogenicity was evaluated using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 21 post-vaccination

  4. Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion or Significant Increase Against Influenza Antigens After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    Immunogenicity was evaluated using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique. Seroconversion was defined as titers < 10 (1/dil) on Day 0 and post-injection titer ≥ 40 (1/dil) on Day 21, and Significant increase was defined as titers ≥ 10 (1/dil) on Day 0 and ≥ 4-fold increase of post-injection titer on Day 21.

    Measured: Day 21 post-vaccination

  5. Geometric Mean Titer Ratios of Influenza Virus Antibodies After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    Immunogenicity was evaluated using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 21 post-vaccination

  6. Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Reactions Listed in The Former Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use Note for Guidance Within 3 Days After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    The solicited reactions evaluated were Injection-site Induration (≥50 mm for at least 4 consecutive days), Injection-site Ecchymosis (injection site bruising), Pyrexia (recorded temperature >38.0˚C for at least 1 day), Malaise, and Shivering (rigors).

    Measured: Day 0 up Day 3 post-vaccination

  7. Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Injection-Site or Systemic Reaction After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route

    Solicited Injection-site reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling, Induration, and Ecchymosis. Solicited Systemic reactions: Fever, Headache, Malaise, Myalgia, and Shivering. Grade 3: Pain, Significant; prevents daily activity; Erythema, Swelling, Induration, and Ecchymosis, >100 mm. Grade 3 Solicited Systemic reactions: Fever, ≥ 39.0˚C; Headache, Malaise, Myalgia, and Shivering, Significant; prevents daily activity.

    Measured: Day 0 up Day 7 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) (split virion, inactivated) Northern Hemisphere (NH) 2015-2016 and Trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) (split virion, inactivated) NH 2015-2016 formulation in people with Influenza, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 5 sites in South Korea.

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 15 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 28 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in South Korea. 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 4 Nov 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?

Geometric Mean Titers of Influenza Antibodies Before and After Vaccination With a Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine Administered Via the Intramuscular Route (time frame: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 21 post-vaccination). The study lists 7 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 NCT02550197, 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 28 Mar 2022.
