Treatment and study plan

Inflexal V

Biological

Intramuscular administration (M. deltoideus) of a single dose of 0.5 mL Inflexal V

Other names: Inflexal V influenza vaccine (surface antigen, inactivated, virosome) formulated for the WHO requirements of the 2012-2013 season, each 0.5 mL dose containing:, • 15 µg HA antigen of A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)-like virus, • 15 µg HA antigen of A/Victoria/361/2011 (H3N2)-like virus, • 15 µg HA antigen of B/Wisconsin/1/2010-like virus

Primary outcomes

  1. Seroprotection

    Time frame: Day 22 +/- 2 days

    Seroprotection rate, defined as proportion of subjects with HI antibody titer ≥1:40 (The primary endpoints are the immunogenicity parameters for HA assessed via hemagglutinin inhibition method (HI). These parameters were analyzed according to the EMA "Note for guidance on harmonisation of requirements for influenza vaccines," 1997)

  2. Seroconversion

    Time frame: Day 22 +/- 2 days

    Seroconversion rate, defined as proportion of subjects with ≥4-fold increase in HI antibody titer and with a titer of ≥1:40 (The primary endpoints are the immunogenicity parameters for HA assessed via hemagglutinin inhibition method (HI). These parameters were analyzed according to the EMA "Note for guidance on harmonisation of requirements for influenza vaccines," 1997)

  3. Geometric Mean Titer

    Time frame: Day 22 +/- 2 days

    GMT of HI antibodies and fold-increase in GMT (The primary endpoints are the immunogenicity parameters for HA assessed via hemagglutinin inhibition method (HI). These parameters were analyzed according to the EMA "Note for guidance on harmonisation of requirements for influenza vaccines," 1997)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Local and Systemic Adverse Events, as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and 3 weeks after vaccination (Day 22 ± 2 days)

    Solicited local and systemic AEs, Unsolicited AEs

    Unsolicited AEs were collected from baseline (Day 1) to 3 weeks after vaccination (Day 22 ± 2 days).

    Solicited local and systemic AEs were collected by subjects diary from Day 1 (day of vaccination) to Day 4
