Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will include adults 18 years of age and older who are vaccinated with either Flublok or IIV within the same time period, e.g. month of the year.

Who may be able to join

  • Data from the EHR of all adult KPNC members 18 years of age and older, who received Flublok for active immunization against influenza as part of routine medical care within the KPNC system. The comparator cohort will include data from all adults in the same age group who received any IIV (trivalent or quadrivalent) during the period of Flublok administration.

Who cannot join

  • Healthcare providers are expected not to administer Flublok or IIV to individuals with known contraindication to either vaccine (see product package inserts). However, there will be no exclusions other than age and KPNC membership criteria at the time of vaccination.

About this study

Official title: Post-Marketing Observational Study of Safety Following Vaccination With Flublok® Compared to Licensed IIV in Adults 18 Years of Age and Older

The primary objective of this study is to retrospectively characterize the safety of Flublok in adults 18 years of age and older, in comparison with egg-based trivalent or quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccines (IIVs), using a methodological approach designed to query the database of electronic health records (EHR) maintained by Kaiser-Permanente, Northern California (KPNC), a large medical care organization (MCO).

Read the detailed description

The primary analysis is a nonrandomized, observational retrospective cohort study. Data on adults 18 years of age and older who were enrolled in the KPNC database during the risk intervals after vaccination analyzed for this study who were vaccinated with Flublok or an IIV (either IIV3 or IIV4) will be identified for analysis. The rates of occurrence of specific MAEs of interest in pre-specified risk intervals following Flublok and IIV will be compared.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Human Influenza, run by Protein Sciences Corporation at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 12 Oct 2017. 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 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.

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?

Number of Participants with Serious adverse events (SAEs) and medically-attended adverse events (MAEs) (time frame: Five months post-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 12 Oct 2017.
