About this study

Official title: Safety of Simultaneous Versus Sequential Administration of mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines and Quadrivalent Inactivated Influenza (IIV4) in Adults, Adolescents and Children: A Randomized Observer Blinded Study

This study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. During this study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4) and mRNA COVID-19 vaccine either simultaneously or sequentially, 7-14 days apart. Persons in the simultaneous group will receive mRNA COVID-19 and IIV4 at Visit 1 (Day 1) and a saline placebo injection at Visit 2. Persons in the sequential group will receive mRNA COVID-19 vaccine and a saline placebo at Visit 1 (Day 1) and IIV4 injection at Visit 2. For participants receiving their primary dose series, a second dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine will be administered either 3 to 8 weeks or 4 to 8 weeks following the first dose, depending upon the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine provided. For those receiving a booster dose of mRNA COVID-19 only a single mRNA COVID-19 will be received in this study. Solicited symptoms of reactogenicity and adverse events will be assessed on vaccination day and daily during the 7 days following each Vaccination Visit using either electronic or paper symptoms diaries, depending on study participant preference. Quality of life data will be collected using electronic or paper diaries on day of Vaccination Visit 1 and daily during the 7 days following the visit. Serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest will be collected throughout the duration of the study. Participants are followed through Day 121. Serum samples from participants will be collected for determination of SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity at baseline. Serum samples will be taken throughout the study to determine IIV4 and COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity and for potential future studies.

What is being measured

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

  1. Total Number of Participants With Moderate or More Severe Fever, Chills, Myalgia, or Arthralgia in the Simultaneous Group and the Sequential Group Following Both Vaccination Visit 1 and 2

    Subjects will be asked to complete a memory aid to document symptoms and measure temperature daily.

    Measured: Up to 7 Days Post Vaccination (combined for Visits 1 and 2)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Participants With Moderate or More Severe Fever, Chills, Myalgia, or Arthralgia in the Simultaneous Versus the Sequential Group Following the First Vaccination Visit

    Subjects will be asked to complete a memory aid to document symptoms and measure temperature daily.

    Measured: Up to 7 Days Post Vaccination

  2. Number of Participants With Moderate or More Severe Fever, Chills, Myalgia, or Arthralgia in the Simultaneous Versus Sequential Group Following the Second Vaccination Visit

    Subjects will be asked to complete a memory aid to document symptoms and measure temperature daily.

    Measured: Up to 7 Days Post Vaccination

  3. Number of Participants in the Simultaneous and Sequential Vaccination Groups With Solicited Local and Systemic Reactogenicity Events According to Severity Grade After the First, Second and Third Vaccination Visit

    Subjects will be asked to complete a memory aid to document symptoms and measure temperature daily.

    Measured: Up to 7 Days Post Vaccination

  4. Number of Participants With Observed Serious Adverse Events

    Measured: 120 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing mRNA COVID-19 and IIV4 in people with Quality of Life and Injection Site Reaction, run by Duke University at 3 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 6 inclusion and 28 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 19 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 19 Mar 2024). 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?

Total Number of Participants With Moderate or More Severe Fever, Chills, Myalgia, or Arthralgia in the Simultaneous Group and the Sequential Group Following Both Vaccination Visit 1 and 2 (time frame: Up to 7 Days Post Vaccination (combined for Visits 1 and 2)). 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 NCT05028361, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 19 Mar 2024.
