NCT02290509

Brief Summary

Randomized, double-blind trial of safety and immunogenicity of Flublok Quadrivalent versus Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (IIV4) in 1350 healthy, medically stable adults 18-49 years of age. Serum samples for Hemagglutinin Inhibition titers will be determined pre- and 28 days post-vaccination. Subjects will be followed for 6 months after vaccination for serious and/or medically-attended adverse events.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Seroconversion to Vaccine Antigens Following Vaccination With Quadrivalent Vaccine

    Seroconversion is defined as: Either a pre vaccination titer \< 10 (1/dil) and a post vaccination titer ≥ 40 (1/dil), or a pre vaccination titer ≥ 10 (1/dil) and a ≥ 4 fold increase in post vaccination titer at Day 28 after the final vaccination.

    Day 28 after final vaccination

  • Geometric Mean Titers of Antibodies to Vaccine Antigens Following Vaccination With Quadrivalent Vaccine

    Immunogenicity will be evaluated prior to vaccination and at 28 days after vaccination using the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) technique. For each influenza vaccine strain, pre and post vaccination geometric mean titers (GMTs) were calculated.

    Day 0 and Day 28 after final vaccination

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of Participants With Systemic and Injection Site Reactogenicity

    Days 0-7

  • Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Medically-attended Adverse Events (MAEs)

    Six months post-vaccination

Study Arms (2)

Flublok Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine

EXPERIMENTAL

Intramuscular injection of vaccine containing 4 x 45µg (180µg total) of each recombinant hemagglutinin (rHA) derived from influenza A/H1N1 and A/H3N2 and two lineages of influenza B viruses identified for the season in which the trial is conducted in a total volume of 0.5 mL

Biological: Flublok Quadrivalent

Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (IIV4)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Intramuscular injection of vaccine contains 4 x 15µg (60µg total) of HA derived from the same influenza A/H1N1 and A/H3N2 and influenza B strains in a total volume of 0.5mL.

Biological: Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (IIV4)

  • Plans to participate in any investigation involving an investigational product during this study.
  • Pregnant, lactating or planning to become pregnant within 30 days of study vaccine.
  • Any clinical or social circumstance that in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with compliance with study procedures or interfere with the interpretation
