NCT04451954

Brief Summary

The primary objectives of the study are:

  • To describe the safety profile of the different formulations in all participants
  • To describe the hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) and seroneutralization (SN) antibody responses against hemagglutinin (H1, H3, B/Victoria, and B/Yamagata) antigens present in the control vaccine in all groups at all timepoints. The secondary objectives are:
  • To describe antigenic coverage in each group by assessing the HAI and SN antibody responses against a panel of H3 antigens (not present in any of the vaccine formulations).
  • To describe SN antibody responses in each group against each of the H3 antigens.
  • To compare H3 HAI and SN antibody responses for the groups with quadrivalent recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV) formulations with H3 antigens to those of the quadrivalent RIV control group.
  • To compare the HAI and SN antibody responses for the groups with quadrivalent RIV formulation with adjuvant to the group without adjuvant.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (11)

    Within 30 minutes after vaccination

  • Number of participants with solicited injection site or systemic reactions

    Solicited injection site reactions: injection site pain, erythema, swelling, induration and bruising; solicited systemic reactions: fever, headache, malaise, and myalgia

    From Day 0 to Day 7

  • Number of participants with unsolicited adverse events

    Unsolicited (spontaneously reported) adverse events not not fulfilling criteria for solicited reactions

    From Day 0 to Day 28

  • Number of participants with serious adverse events

    Serious adverse events are collected throughout the study

    From Day 0 to Day 365

  • Number of participants with adverse events of special interest

    Adverse events of special interest are collected throughout the study

    From Day 0 to Day 365

  • Clinical safety laboratory test results

    Laboratory tests include complete blood count (CBC), platelet count, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin, serum creatinine, serum lipase, and serum amylase)

    From Day 0 to Day 7

  • HAI and SN antibody titers against influenza antigens in the quadrivalent RIV control vaccine

    Influenza antibody titers are measured by HAI and SN assays

    From Day 0 to Day 365

  • Individual HAI and SN titers ratio against influenza antigens in the quadrivalent RIV control vaccine

    Titers ratio is calculated for the following time points: Day 7/Day 0, Day 28/Day 0, and Day 90/Day 0

    From Day 0 to Day 90

  • Number of participants with seroconversion to influenza antigens in the quadrivalent RIV control vaccine

    Seroconversion is defined as HAI antibody titer \< 10 \[1/dil\] at Day 0 and post-injection titer ≥ 40 \[1/dil\] at Day 28, or titer ≥ 10 \[1/dil\] at Day 0 and a ≥ 4-fold increase in titer \[1/dil\] at Day 28)

    From Day 0 to Day 28

  • HAI Ab titer ≥ 40 [1/dil]

    Influenza vaccine antibody titers are measured by HAI assay

    From Day 0 to Day 365

  • 2-fold and 4-fold increase in SN titers

    Influenza vaccine antibody titers are measured by SN assay

    From Day 0 to Day 28

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • HAI antibody titers against influenza H3 antigens not present in the vaccine formulations and the SN antibody titers against each of the H3 antigens

    Day 0, Day 7, Day 28, Day 90, Day 180, and Day 365

  • Individual HAI titer ratios against influenza H3 antigens not present in the vaccine formulations and individual SN titer ratio against each of the H3 antigens

    From Day 0 to Day 90

  • Number of participants with seroconversion to influenza H3 antigens not present in the vaccine formulations

    Day 0 and Day 28

  • 2-fold and 4-fold rise in SN antibody titers against each of the H3 antigens

    Day 0, Day 7, Day 28, Day 90, Day 180, and Day 365
