Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic ARs

    Time frame: 7 days after vaccination

    Solicited ARs (local and systemic) were collected in the electronic diary (eDiary). Local ARs included: pain at injection site, erythema (redness) at injection site, swelling/induration (hardness) at injection site, and localized axillary swelling or tenderness ipsilateral to the injection arm. Systemic ARs included: headache, fatigue, myalgia (muscle aches all over the body), arthralgia (aching in several joints), nausea/vomiting, rash, body temperature (potentially fever), and chills. Solicited ARs (local and systemic) considered causally related to injection were graded 0-4; lower score indicates lower severity and a higher score indicates greater severity. Note, not all solicited ARs were considered adverse events (AEs). The Investigator reviewed whether the solicited AR was also to be recorded as an AE. Summary of serious AEs (SAEs) and nonserious AEs ("Other"), regardless of causality, is in Reported "Adverse Events" section and presented by Phase/dose group.

  2. Number of Participants With Unsolicited AEs

    Time frame: Up to 28 days after vaccination

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. A treatment-emergent AE (TEAE) was defined as any event not present before exposure to vaccine or any event already present that worsens in intensity or frequency after exposure. Any abnormal laboratory test result (hematology, clinical chemistry, or prothrombin time [PT]/partial thromboplastin time [PTT]) or other safety assessment (for example, electrocardiogram, radiological scan, vital sign measurement), including one that worsens from baseline and is considered clinically significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the Investigator. A summary of SAEs and all nonserious AEs ("Other") reported up to the end of the study, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported "Adverse Events" section and presented by each Phase and dose group separately.

  3. Number of Participants With SAEs, AEs of Special Interest (AESIs), Medically Attended AEs (MAAEs)

    Time frame: Up to 6 months (end of study)

    An SAE was defined as any AE that resulted in death, is life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in disability/permanent damage, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was an important medical event.

    AESIs included thrombocytopenia, new onset of or worsening of the protocol specified neurologic diseases, anaphylaxis, and myocarditis/pericarditis.

    An MAAE is an AE that leads to an unscheduled visit to an healthcare practitioner. This would include visits to a study site for unscheduled assessments (for example, abnormal laboratory follow-up, and/or COVID-19 and visits to healthcare practitioners external to the study site (for example, urgent care, primary care physician). A summary of SAEs and all nonserious AEs ("Other"), regardless of causality, is located in the Reported "Adverse Events" section and presented by each Phase and dose group separately.

    Time frame: Day 29

    Seasonal influenza A included H1N1 and H3N2 and seasonal influenza B strains included Victoria-lineage and Yamagata-lineage.

    Seroconversion at a participant level was defined as (a) if lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 1:10, a post-baseline titer ≥1:40 if baseline was <1:10 or a 4-fold or greater rise from baseline if baseline was ≥1:10 in anti-HA antibodies; or (b) if LLOQ was >1:10, a post-baseline titer ≥4 x LLOQ if baseline was <LLOQ, or 4-fold or greater increase from baseline if baseline was ≥LLOQ in anti-HA antibodies.
