NCT00617851

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to demonstrate immunologic equivalence of three consecutive production lots of the subunit influenza vaccine compared to egg-derived inactivated influenza vaccine in healthy subjects 18 to 49 years of ages. In addition, this study is to show how safe and well tolerated a conventional inactivated subunit influenza vaccine, licensed in many countries outside the United States, is compared to an inactivated influenza vaccine, licensed in the United States.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs), by Vaccine Lots

    The immunologic equivalence of three consecutive production lots of the influenza virus vaccine was measured in terms of GMTs for all vaccine influenza strains.

    21 days after vaccination

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs), by Vaccine Group and Strain

    21 days after vaccination

  • Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic Symptoms

    7 days after vaccination

  • Number of Subjects With at Least One Unsolicited Adverse Event

    3 weeks after vaccination

  • Percentage of Subjects With Seroprotection and Seroconversion (Strain A/H1N1)

    21 days after vaccination

  • Percentage of Subjects With Seroprotection and Seroconversion (Strain A/H3N2)

    21 days after vaccination

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 49 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • to 49 years of age;
  • In good health as determined by medical history and physical examination;

  • History of any anaphylaxis, serious vaccine reactions, or hypersensitivity to eggs, egg protein, chicken feathers, influenza viral protein, neomycin, polymyxin, or any other vaccine component, chemically related substance, or component of the potential packaging materials (latex);
  • Known or suspected impairment/alteration of immune function
  • Receipt of an influenza vaccine within 6 months prior to Visit 1;
  • Current drug or alcohol abuse or a history of drug or alcohol abuse that in the investigator's opinion would interfere with safety of the subject or the evaluation of the study objectives;
  • Laboratory-confirmed influenza disease within 6 months prior to Visit 1
