NCT02104869

Brief Summary

This will be an open label, parallel, randomized clinical trial that will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the trivalent influenza vaccine (inactivated and fragmented) produced by Instituto Butantan among adult kidney transplant recipients, when administered in three vaccination regimens: i) the recommended dose; ii) a single double dose; iii) two doses administered with a 21 day interval. The randomization ratio among the three groups of kidney transplant recipients will be 1:1, and 60 participants will be included in each group. After vaccination all participants will be followed for 26 weeks. In addition, 15 healthy adults will be included as a control group, and will receive the recommended dose. The study hypothesis is that a different vaccination regimen can improve the immune response of kidney transplant recipients after vaccination with the trivalent influenza vaccine (inactivated and fragmented).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Percentage of Seroconversion.

    Seroconversion will be defined as HI titers ≥1:40 post-vaccination among subjects with pre-vaccination HI titers \<1:10, or as a 4-fold increase in post-vaccination HI titers among subjects with pre -vaccination HI titers ≥ 1:10.

    21 days (+7 days) after vaccination.

  • Percentage of Seroprotection

    Seroprotection will be defined as post-vaccinations HI titers ≥1:40.

    21 days (+7 days) after vaccination.

  • Increase in the geometric mean titers of HI post-vaccination.

    21 days (+7 days) after vaccination.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Solicited and unsolicited local and systemic adverse reactions.

    Until day 3 post-vaccination.

Study Arms (4)

Recommended dose (kidney transplant)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Intervention: trivalent influenza vaccine (inactivated and fragmented).

Dose: single 0.5 mL dose.

Biological: Trivalent influenza vaccine (inactivated and fragmented).
