Filter by:To evaluate the safety of a single intramuscular (IM) injection of trivalent nonadjuvated influenza study vaccine, formulation 2012/2013, in adult and elderly subjects and the antibody response to each influenza vaccine antigen, as measured by single radial hemolysis (SRH) and hemagglutination inhibition (HI) at approximately 21 days postimmunization in adult and elderly subjects in compliance with the requirements of the current EU recommendations for clinical trials related to yearly licensing of influenza vaccines.
Phase III clinical trial was carried out in Jintan city, Jiangsu Province, China in May, 2006. Trial results showed that the vaccine had proved safety and immunogenicity. Influenza vaccine of Hualanbio has obtained production permission and marketing authorization in May, 2008. In order to further investigate the safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine in the market, The clinical observation was planned to be conducted in Mianyang city (Yanting County), Sichuan Province, China.
Influenza vaccine (split virion), Inactivated (15ug HA/subtype/0.5ml) of Hualan Biological Bacterin Co., Ltd (The subsidiary of Hualan Biological Engineering INC.) is applicable to the influenza immunity of age 3 and older population. Phase III clinical study was conducted in Jintan City, Jiangsu Province in May, 2006. Trial results showed that this vaccine had good safety and immunogenicity. Hualan Bio Influenza Vaccine obtained its production approval(China Drug Approval No.: S20083016) for marketing on April 3rd, 2008. In order to monitor and evaluate the safety and protective effect against influenza administered on age 3 and older population, therefore we conduct the phase IV clinical trial of the licensed Influenza Vaccine (split virion), Inactivated (15ug HA/subtype/0.5ml).
This study aims to evaluate the immunogenicity, by means of cell mediated immunity (CMI) and hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay, and also the safety of a MF59C.1-adjuvanted subunit influenza vaccine compared with a conventional subunit vaccine in previously unvaccinated children aged 6 to <36 months.
The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response and T-cell response of split-virion inactivated A (H1N1) vaccine. Participants will include up to 20 healthy persons of age 20 and older who have no history of novel influenza H1N1 2009 infection in latest 3 months or novel influenza H1N1 2009 vaccination. This is a randomized study in healthy males and non-pregnant females, aged 20 years and older. All subjects will be stratified into 1 dose group (15mcg per dose), and will receive intramuscular influenza H1N1 vaccine. The H1N1 vaccine will be administered at Day 0 and Day 21. On Day 0, Day 10, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35 and Day 42 after first vaccination (Day 0), the immunogenicity testing will be manipulated. The antibody response of immunogenicity testing will be hemagglutination inhibiting (HAI) on serum. The T-cell response will be interferon-gamma ELISPOT assay and Tetramer staining using PBMCs.
The next influenza pandemic is expected to spread rapidly in resource-poor settings. Influenza viruses spread from human-to-human via large respiratory droplets. Transmission via large-particle respiratory droplets is believed to be mediated by close contact between infected and susceptible persons or contact with droplet-contaminated fomites. Close contact between infected and susceptible persons may consist of skin-to-skin contact (e.g., via hands) or inhalation of respiratory droplets (e.g., due to talking, coughing, or sneezing by the infected person). Airborne transmission, which is expected to result in transmission over long distances (>1 meter) and which would be mediated by ventilation, is believed to be uncommon. Therefore, the greatest risk of transmission from personal contact comes from those people who are closest to an index case, such as contacts living in the same household. There are, to date, no published estimates of the secondary attack ratio of influenza among household contacts of index case-patients in low-income countries. Moreover, the investigators do not have data on the risk factors for secondary transmission of influenza from index case-patients to their household contacts. There is some data for the benefits of promoting handwashing with soap on the risk of all-cause acute respiratory illness among children < 15 years old in a resource-poor setting in Pakistan. But, the investigators do not have evidence that promoting handwashing with soap will acutely reduce the risk of secondary transmission. Therefore, the investigators propose to conduct a study in rural Bangladesh to assess the following: - The secondary attack ratio of influenza among household contacts of an index case-patient with influenza - The risk factors for secondary transmission of influenza from an index case-patient to household contacts - The impact of promoting handwashing with soap on the risk of secondary transmission of influenza from an index case-patient to household contacts - The impact of handwashing promotion on handwashing behavior six months after intervention - The impact of handwashing promotion on the prevalence of respiratory infections, diarrhea and influenza
