Brief Summary

This was a randomized, laboratory-blinded study in healthy male and non-pregnant female designed to investigate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of an inactivated influenza H1N1 vaccine (AdimFlu-S). In the adult cohort, all volunteers were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 15 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart, 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 30 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart or 1 injection of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 15 mcg HA. In the elders cohort, all volunteers were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 15 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart or 2 injections of AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) 30 mcg HA at 3 weeks apart. Following immunization, safety was measured by assessment of adverse events for 6 weeks following the first vaccination, serious adverse events and new-onset chronic medical conditions through 7 months post first vaccination; and reactogenicity to the vaccines for 7 days following each vaccination. Immunogenicity testing included hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) testing on serum obtained before first vaccination, and three and six weeks after first vaccination.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following a single dose of study vaccine, stratified by age of recipient, when administered at the 15 or 30 μg HA doses.

• The primary safety objective of this study is to assess the safety of the study vaccine when administered at the 15 or 30 μg dose.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• The secondary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following 2 doses of study vaccine, stratified by age of recipient, when administered at the 15 or 30 μg HA doses.

• History of hypersensitivity to eggs or egg protein or similar pharmacological effects to study medication (AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1));
• Personal or family history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome;
• An acute febrile illness within the last 72 hours prior to vaccination;
• Subjects, with bleeding or any coagulation disorder, who receive anticoagulants in the preceding 3 weeks, thus posing a contraindication for intramuscular injection;
• Subjects with influenza-like illness as defined by the presence of fever (temperature ≧38.5℃) and at least two of the following four symptoms: headache, muscle/joint aches and pains (e.g. myalgia/arthralgia), sore throat and cough;

• Treatment with an investigational drug or device, or participation in a clinical study, within 3 months before consent;
• Immunodeficiency, immunosuppressive or household contact with immunosuppression;
• History of wheezing or have been using bronchodilator within 3 months prior to study vaccination;
• Receipt of live virus vaccine within 1 month prior to study vaccination or expected receipt within 2 months after first study vaccination;
• Receipt of any inactivated vaccine within 2 weeks prior to study vaccination or expected receipt of vaccination within 3 weeks after the immunogenicity evaluation period;
• Receipt of any blood products, including immunoglobulin in the prior 3 months;
• Underlying condition, in the investigator's opinion, that may be inappropriate for vaccination;
• Significant chronic illness for which inactivated influenza vaccine is recommended or commonly used.
