Treatment and study plan

GSK Biologicals' quadrivalent influenza vaccine

Biological

Single intramuscular dose on Day 0.

GSK Biologicals' trivalent influenza vaccine

Biological

Single intramuscular dose on Day 0.

Primary outcomes

  1. Serum Haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) Antibody Titers, Against Each of the Vaccine Influenza Virus Strains.

    Time frame: At Day 0 and Day 21

    Antibody titers were expressed as Geometric mean titers (GMTs).The vaccine influenza strains included A/Solomon Islands,A/Wisconsin,B/Malaysia and B/Jiangsu antigens.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Subjects Seroconverted for HI Antibodies Against the Vaccine Influenza Strains.

    Time frame: At Day 21

    A seroconverted subject was defined as a subject who had either a pre-vaccination titer less than (<) 1:10 and a post-vaccination titer greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40 or a pre-vaccination titer ≥ 1:10 and at least a four-fold increase in post-vaccination titer. The vaccine influenza strains included A/Solomon Islands, A/Wisconsin, B/Malaysia and B/Jiangsu antigens.

  2. HI Antibody Seroconversion Factors Against the Vaccine Influenza Strains

    Time frame: Day 21

    Seroconversion factors were defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post-vaccination compared to Day 0. The Influenza vaccine strains included A/Solomon Islands, A/Wisconsin, B/Malaysia and B/Jiangsu antigens.

  3. Number of Subjects Seroprotected for HI Antibodies Against the Vaccine Influenza Strains.

    Time frame: At Days 0 and 21

    A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with a serum HI titer ≥1:40 that usually is accepted as indicating protection. The Influenza vaccine strains included A/Solomon Islands, A/Wisconsin, B/Malaysia and B/Jiangsu antigens.

  4. Number of Subjects Reporting Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms.

    Time frame: During a 7 day (Days 0-6) follow-up period after vaccination

    Solicited local symptoms assessed were pain, redness and swelling. Any was defined as occurrence of any specified solicited local symptoms reported irrespective of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain was defined as considerable pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness and swelling were defined as redness/swelling above 100 millimeters (mm).

  5. Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms Reported by the Former GSK Rules of Grading.

    Time frame: During a 7-day follow-up period (Days 0-6) after vaccination

    Solicited local symptoms assessed by the former GSK rules of grading were pain, redness and swelling. Any was defined as occurrence of any specified solicited local symptoms reported irrespective of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain was defined as pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness and swelling were defined as redness/swelling above 50 millimeters (mm).

  6. Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms.

    Time frame: During a 7-day follow-up period (Days 0-6) after vaccination

    Solicited general symptoms assessed were arthralgia, fatigue, headache, myalgia, nausea, shivering and fever. Any =occurrence of any specified solicited general symptoms reported irrespective of intensity grade or relationship to vaccination. Any fever = oral temperature ≥ 38.0 degrees Celsius (°C).. Grade 3 symptoms = symptoms that prevented normal activities. Grade 3 fever = oral temperature ≥39.0°C. Related = symptoms considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to vaccination

  7. Number of Subjects With Any ,Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms Reported by the Former GSK Rules of Grading.

    Time frame: During a 7-day follow-up period (Days 0-6) after vaccination

    Solicited general symptoms assessed by the former GSK rules of grading were arthralgia, fatigue, headache, myalgia, nausea, shivering and fever. Any = occurrence of any specified solicited general symptoms reported irrespective of intensity grade or relationship to vaccination. Any fever = oral temperature ≥ 37.5 °C. Grade 3 symptoms = symptoms that prevented normal activities. Grade 3 fever = oral temperature above 39.0°C. . Related = symptoms considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to vaccination.

  8. Number of Subjects Reporting Any Medically Significant Conditions (MSCs) and Auto-immune Diseases (AIDs).

    Time frame: During the entire study period (Days 0-180)

    MSCs were defined as those adverse events (AEs) prompting emergency room visits, hospitalizations or physician visits and that were not routine visits for physical examination or vaccination. AIDs include a large group of diseases characterized by abnormal functioning of the immune system that causes immune system to produce antibodies against own tissues.

  9. Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Unsolicited AE(s).

    Time frame: During a 21 day (Days 0-20) follow-up period after vaccination-

    Unsolicited AE covers any AE reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as occurrence of any unsolicited symptom regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Grade 3 was an event that prevented normal activities and related was defined as an unsolicited AE assessed by the investigator to be causally related to the study vaccination

  10. Number of Subjects Reporting Any and Related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Time frame: During the entire study period (Days 0-180)

    SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, result in disability/incapacity or are a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject. Any was defined as occurrence of any symptom regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination and related was an event assessed by the investigator as causally related to the study vaccination.
