About this study

Adopt the design of random, blind method and placebo to parallel control and progressive methods of groups to study and evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of influenza A (H7N9) vaccine (two types, one type with two specifications) on people of different ages. The vaccines used for testing include: influenza A (H7N9) virus inactivated vaccine/split influenza vaccine (15μg /dose), influenza A (H7N9) virus inactivated vaccine/split influenza vaccine (30μg / dose), influenza A (H7N9) virus inactivated vaccine/whole influenza vaccine (7.5μg / dose) and influenza A (H7N9) virus inactivated vaccine/ whole influenza vaccine (15μg / dose).

The study between different subgroups was carried out in an orderly and progressive manner, that is, each kind of vaccine by the dose is from low to high according to the order of age from old to young. Firstly, the study on 15μg/dose split vaccine group (aged 18 and above) and 7.5μg/dose whole-virus vaccine group (aged 18 and above) was carried out and then the study on 15μg/dose split vaccine group (aged 12-17) and 7.5μg/dose whole-virus vaccine group (aged 12-17) was conducted upon 7-day safety was confirmed after the vaccination, finally the study on 30μg/dose split vaccine group (aged 18 and above) and 15μg/dose whole-virus vaccine group (aged 18 and above) was done. By that analogy for the same conditions, the next group of test can be done after the 7-day safety of the last group of vaccine is confirmed.

Subjects and researchers didn't know the formulations of the vaccines used. The vaccine is injected into the upper arm deltoid muscle. After 30 minutes of field observation on safety, the subjects' axillary temperature shall be recorded on the Record Book prepared by the research and local and systemic reactions to injection at the 6th, 24th, 48th, and 72th hour and on the 4th, 8th, 21st and 30th day shall also be recorded. This paper collected 5 serum samples: day 0 (before the first-dose vaccination), day 4 (after the first-dose vaccination), day 21 (before the second-dose vaccination), day 25 (fourth day after the second-dose vaccination) and day 42 (21st day after the second-dose vaccination), of which, blood samples on day 0, 21 and 42 should be stored at 18℃ for antibody detection and the remaining 2 blood samples are only used for blood routine examination, routine urine test, blood biochemistry and other laboratory examinations.

What is being measured

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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Influenza A (H7N9) virus vaccine in people with Influenza A, run by Hualan Biological Bacterin Co. Ltd..

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 8 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 23 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

587 subjects accept the observation of local adverse reaction according to Guidelines for grading standard of adverse reaction of clinical trial of vaccine used for prevention. (time frame: 20 days after the inoculation of first needle). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Jun 2017.
