Brief Summary

Title: A Phase I Study of The Safety, Reactogenicity, Acceptability and Immunogenicity of Inactivated Influenza Vaccine Delivered either by Microneedle Patch or by Hypodermic Needle. This is a single center, partially blinded, randomized phase I study in which healthy adult subjects (ages 18-49) will receive either inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV) (either by microneedle patch or hypodermic needle) or placebo (by microneedle patch). This study is designed to investigate the safety, reactogenicity, acceptability and immunogenicity of an inactivated influenza vaccine delivered by microneedle patch.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Occurrence of Solicited Injection Site and Systemic Reactogenicity on the Day of Study Product Administration Through 7 Days After Administration.

    Safety will be measured by the occurrence of solicited injection site and systemic reactogenicity on the day of study product administration through 7 days after, and serious adverse events (SAEs) and new-onset chronic medical conditions through 180 days after study product administration. Local and systemic reactions were graded using an Injection Site Reaction table listing local reactions (e.g., swelling, erythema, etc.) and grade levels from 0 to 4 for each local reaction, a General Adverse Reaction table listing systemic reactions (e.g., fatigue, myalgia, etc.) and grade levels from 0 to 4 for each systemic reaction, and a Clinical Adverse Event Grading Scale (grades 1-4) for safety labs. In all tables, the higher the grade, the worse the adverse event.

    From Day 0 through Day 8

  • Occurrence of Study Product-related Serious Adverse Events From D0 Until D180 (+/- 14 Days) After Study Product Administration.

    From Day 0 until Day 180

  • Occurrence of Grade 3 Solicited or Unsolicited Adverse Events From D0 Until D28 (+/- 2 Days) After Study Product Administration.

    From Day 0 until Day 28

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of HAI Antibody Approximately 28 Days Following Receipt of IIV Delivered by Microneedle Patch or by Hypodermic Needle (Both Vaccines Administered by Study Staff).

    At Day 28

  • Percentage of Subjects Achieving Seroprotection (Defined as a HAI Antibody Titer of 1:40 or Greater) Approximately 28 Days Following Receipt of IIV Delivered by Microneedle Patch or by Hypodermic Needle (Both Vaccines Administered by Study Staff).

    At Day 28

  • Percentage of Subjects Achieving Seroconversion Approximately 28 Days Following Receipt of IIV Delivered by Microneedle Patch or by Hypodermic Needle (Both Vaccines Administered by Study Staff).

    At Day 28

  • Subject is male or non-pregnant female between the ages of 18 and 49, inclusive, on the day of signing informed consent.
  • Subject is in good health as determined by vital signs, medical history and targeted physical examination
  • Women of childbearing potential must agree to practice abstinence from sexual intercourse with men or use acceptable contraception, initiated at least 30 days prior to the study vaccination throughout D180 in order to avoid pregnancy.
  • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test prior to administration of the study product.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject has received a 2014-2015 seasonal influenza vaccine.
  • Subject with documented influenza infection during the 2014-2015 influenza season.
  • Subject has touched or handled a microneedle patch prior to study enrollment (excluding dermaroller-like devices).
