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 to 49 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Otherwise healthy 18-49 years old identical (MZ) twins identified as DR1501+ or DR0701+ by lab assay results. Both twins in the pair must be willing to participate in the study.
  • Willing to complete the informed consent process
  • Availability for follow-up for the planned duration of the study
  • Acceptable medical history by review of inclusion/exclusion criteria and vital signs.

Who cannot join

  • Prior off-study vaccination with the current year's seasonal influenza vaccine.
  • Allergy to egg or egg products or to vaccine components including gentamicin, gelatin, arginine or MSG
  • Life-threatening reactions to previous influenza vaccinations
  • Asthma (a contraindication for receipt of LAIV4)
  • Active systemic or serious concurrent illness, including febrile illness on the day of vaccination
  • History of immunodeficiency (including HIV infection)
Show all 27Show fewer
  • Known or suspected impairment of immunologic function, including, but not limited to, clinically significant liver disease, diabetes mellitus treated with insulin, moderate to severe renal disease, or any other chronic disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, might jeopardize volunteer safety or compliance with the protocol.
  • Blood pressure >150 systolic or >95 diastolic at first study visit and the day of vaccination.
  • Hospitalization in the past year for congestive heart failure or emphysema.
  • Chronic Hepatitis B or C.
  • Recent or current use of immunosuppressive medication, including systemic glucocorticoids (corticosteroid nasal sprays and topical steroids are permissible in all groups; inhaled steroid use is not permissible)
  • Participants who care for severely immunosuppressed persons that require a protective environment should not receive LAIV, or should avoid contact with such persons for 7 days after receipt, given the theoretical risk for transmission of the live attenuated vaccine virus to close contacts. [If yes, may be ineligible]
  • Malignancy, other than squamous cell or basal cell skin cancer (includes solid tumors such as breast cancer or prostate cancer with recurrence in the past year, and any hematologic cancer such as leukemia).
  • Autoimmune disease (including rheumatoid arthritis treated with immunosuppressive medication such as Plaquenil, methotrexate, prednisone, Enbrel) which, in the opinion of the investigator, might jeopardize volunteer safety or compliance with the protocol.
  • History of blood dyscrasias, renal disease, or hemoglobinopathies requiring regular medical follow up or hospitalization during the preceding year
  • Use of any anti-coagulation medication such as Coumadin or Lovenox, or anti-platelet agents such as aspirin (except up to 325 mg. per day), Plavix, or Aggrenox must be reviewed by investigator to determine if this would affect the volunteer's safety.
  • Has taken an influenza antiviral medication within 48 hours prior to study vaccination [If yes, may not eligible if unable to schedule at an appropriate interval].
  • Receipt of blood or blood products within the past 6 months or planned used during the study.
  • Medical or psychiatric condition or occupational responsibilities that preclude participant compliance with the protocol
  • Receipt of an inactivated vaccine 14 days prior to study enrollment, or planned vaccinations prior to completion of last study visit ( ~ 28 days after study vaccination)
  • Receipt of a live, attenuated vaccine within 60 days prior to enrollment of planned vaccination prior to completion of last study visit (~ 28 days after study vaccination)
  • Need for allergy immunization (that cannot be postponed) during the study period.
  • History of Guillain-Barré syndrome
  • Pregnant or lactating woman
  • Use of investigational agents within 30 days prior to enrollment or planned use during the study.
  • Donation of the equivalent of a unit of blood within 6 weeks prior to enrollment or planned donation prior to completion of the last visit.
  • Any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with volunteer safety, study objectives or the ability of the participant to understand or comply with the study protocol.

About this study

Official title: Project 1. The Role of CD4+ Memory Phenotype, Memory, and Effector T-Cells in Vaccination and Infection - Influenza-specific DR1501+ and DR0701+ T-cells

The purpose of this study is provide a better understanding of the adaptive immune response to the licensed flu vaccines. The investigators hope the information learned from this study will help identify and describe important factors of influenza immunity especially of or specific proteins associated with the T-cell immune response.

Read the detailed description

This is a study of up to 20 healthy monozygotic (MZ) twins, 18-49 years old, that are participants from past Stanford-LPCH Vaccine Program trials and who have been identified as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DR1501+ or DR0701+ by lab assay results. Volunteers will be contacted to assess interest in participating in this study. Both twins in the pair must be willing to participate in the study. All participants will be randomized within the twin pair to receive either the seasonal live, attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) or the seasonal quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4). Immunization will be at Day 0, blood samples for immunogenicity assays will be collected prior to immunization and at Days 7 (6-8) and 28 (24-32).

This study was halted due to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices decision not to recommend use of LAIV.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
LAIV randomizedOtherVolunteers are past participants who have been identified as HLA DR1501+ or DR0701+ by lab assay results.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Who Received Influenza Vaccine

    Number of individual twins who received either LAIV or IIV4 as dictated by their group assignment

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With Related Adverse Events

    Number of individual twins who experienced related adverse events through the course of the study.

    Measured: Day 0 to 28 post-immunization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Fluzone® and FluMist® in people with Influenza, run by Stanford University 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 4 inclusion and 27 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 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.

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 12 Sep 2017). 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 Who Received Influenza Vaccine (time frame: Day 0). 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 Sep 2017.
