About this study

Participants will receive a single injection of their randomized vaccine on Day 0.

Who can participate

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Healthy adults aged 18 years or older on the day of inclusion
  • Informed consent has been signed and dated
  • Able to attend all scheduled visits and comply with all trial procedures

Exclusion criteria

  • Known pregnancy or positive urine pregnancy test
  • Currently breastfeeding a child
  • Participation in another clinical trial investigating a vaccine, drug, medical device, or a medical procedure in the 4 weeks preceding the first trial vaccination
  • Planned participation in another clinical trial during the present trial period
  • Receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding the trial vaccination, except for the inactivated seasonal influenza vaccine, within two weeks preceding trial vaccination
  • Planned receipt of any vaccine prior to the Day 42 blood sample
  • Receipt of blood or blood-derived products in the past 3 months which might interfere with the assessment of immune response
  • Known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, immunosuppressive therapy such as anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the preceding 6 months, or long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy (prednisone or equivalent for more than 2 consecutive weeks within the past 3 months)
  • Self-reported seropositivity for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B antigen, or Hepatitis C
  • Known systemic hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components, or history of a life-threatening reaction to the vaccine(s) used in the trial or to a vaccine containing any of the same substances
  • Self reported thrombocytopenia contraindicating intramuscular (IM) vaccination
  • Bleeding disorder or receipt of anticoagulants in the 3 weeks preceding inclusion contraindicating IM vaccination
  • Deprived of freedom by an administrative or court order, or in an emergency setting, or hospitalized involuntarily
  • Current alcohol abuse or drug addiction that may interfere with the subject's ability to comply with trial procedures
  • Chronic illness that in the opinion of the Investigator, is at a stage where it might interfere with trial conduct or completion
  • Employees of the Investigator or study center, with direct involvement in the proposed study or other studies under the direction of that Investigator or study center, as well as family members of the employees or the Investigator
  • Previous participation in a swine-origin A/H1N1 pandemic flu trial except if performed in 1976
  • Any confirmed case of influenza (including swine-origin A/H1N1 Influenza) since March 2009
  • Febrile illness (temperature ≥ 100.4°F [≥ 38.0°C ]) or moderate or severe acute illness/infection (according to Investigator judgment) on the day of vaccination
  • Personal or family history of Guillain-Barré syndrome
  • Active neoplastic disease or a history of any hematologic malignancy
  • Known seizure/epilepsy history and/or taking anti-seizure medication
  • Receipt of psychiatric drugs. Subjects receiving a single antidepressant drug and stable for at least 3 months prior to enrollment, without decompensating symptoms will be allowed to enroll in the study
  • Any Grade 1, 2, or 3 liver function values (Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and Alkaline phosphatase) observed in blood sample taken at Screening
  • Any Grade 2 or Grade 3 laboratory abnormalities in blood sample taken at Screening
  • Receipt of any monovalent 2009 pandemic H1N1 vaccine.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Detectable Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Detectable anti HA antibody titer was defined as titers ≥ 10 (1/dilution) on Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination.

  2. Number of Participants With Seroprotection Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Seroprotection was defined as a titer ≥ 40 (1/dil).

  3. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of A/H1N1 Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay.

  4. Number of Participants With Detectable Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Detectable anti-HA antibody titer was defined as titers ≥ 10 (1/dil).

  5. Number of Participants With Seroprotection Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay. Seroprotection was defined as a titer ≥ 40 (1/dil).

  6. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of A/H1N1 Antibodies Before and Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 and Day 21 post-vaccination

    Antibodies to vaccine were measured using the Hemagglutinin Inhibition (HAI) assay.

  7. Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age 18 to 64 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

    Solicited Injections Site Reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling, Induration, and Ecchymosis. Solicited Systemic Reactions: Fever (Temperature), Headache, Malaise, Myalgia, and Shivering

  8. Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reaction Following Vaccination With Either Adjuvanted or Non-adjuvanted A/H1N1 Pandemic Vaccine or a Placebo: Age ≥ 65 Years

    Time frame: Day 0 up to Day 7 post-vaccination

    Solicited Injections Site Reactions: Pain, Erythema, Swelling, Induration, and Ecchymosis. Solicited Systemic Reactions: Fever (Temperature), Headache, Malaise, Myalgia, and Shivering.
