Vaccination Reaction Clinical Trial
— TETRALITE-IbOfficial title:
A Single-center, Observer-blind Study to Evaluate Safety, Immunogenicity, and Immunological Mechanisms of TETRALITE Influenza Vaccine With LiteVax Adjuvant, in Healthy Participants Aged 60 Years and Older and 18 to 50 Years.
The effect of LiteVax Adjuvant supplemented to licensed seasonal influenza vaccine on safety and immunogenicity will be investigated in both younger and older healthy participants. Local and systemic adverse events, and humoral and cellular immune responses will be determined at different time intervals after a single administration. Mode of action of LiteVax Adjuvant will examined by detailed genetic analysis and omics approaches such as transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics.

Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: 1. Written signed informed consent obtained before any study-related activities. 2. Aged 18 to 50 years inclusive, at the time of signing the ICF in the younger age cohorts (Cohort 1, Cohort 2 and Cohort 3) and aged 60 years or older, at the time of signing the ICF in the older age cohorts (Cohort 4, Cohort 5 and Cohort 6). 3. Participants who are considered to be in good general health as determined by medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination (PE) and laboratory tests within 21 days prior to enrollment. 4. Participants with a BMI within the range 18.5 to 35 kg/m2 inclusive at screening. 5. Women who are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and one of the following conditions applies - Women of non-childbearing potential (WONCBP) as defined in Appendix 1. or - WOCBP and using a highly effective contraceptive method (with a failure rate of less than 1 % per year) as defined and described in Appendix 1 from at least 1 month prior to study vaccination and for 3 months post-vaccination. The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (e.g. noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to study vaccination. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the study and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. The participant should commit her abstinence to at least 1 month prior to study vaccination and for 3 months post-vaccination. If the participant will not maintain abstinence and changes her status, the participant must first commit to another highly effective method of contraception, which should be discussed with the investigator prior to terminating sexual abstinence as contraceptive method (34). 6. WOCBP must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test before vaccination at Day 1. Refer to Section 8.3.5 for Pregnancy Testing. The investigator is responsible for review of medical history and menstrual history to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy. 7. Participants who are willing and able to comply with the study procedures and are in the view of the investigator capable of completing the study. Exclusion Criteria: Medical Conditions 1. History of previous laboratory confirmed influenza infection in the past 6 months, excluding laboratory confirmed COVID-19 infections, prior to the day of study vaccination. 2. Positive (in the past, suspected or ongoing) for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody. 3. Past or current history of immune-mediated and/or autoimmune diseases as indicated by the investigator, e.g. diabetes mellitus type I and thyroid disease. 4. Serious reactions to vaccines that preclude receipt of study vaccinations as determined by the investigator. 5. Clinical conditions representing a contraindication for IM administration, as judged by the investigator, e.g. history of bleeding disorder (e.g. factor deficiency, coagulopathy, or platelet disorder requiring special precautions) or significant bruising or bleeding difficulties with IM administration or blood draws. 6. History of confirmed hypersensitivity, allergy and/or anaphylaxis to eggs (ovalbumin or chicken proteins), squalene-based adjuvants, or other components of the study vaccine (neomycin, formaldehyde or octoxinol-9). 7. Current history of uncontrolled medical illness (unstable for the past 3 months) as judged by investigator, e.g. hypertension, diabetes mellitus type 2. 8. Past or current history of any neurological disorder, e.g. Guillain-Barré syndrome and seizure disorder other than: 1) childhood febrile seizures, or 2) seizures that have not required treatment within the last 3 years. 9. History of asplenia, functional asplenia or any condition resulting in the absence or removal of the spleen. 10. Active malignancy or malignancy within the past 5 years, except basocellular carcinoma (single lesion) that has been fully removed. 11. Asthma that is unstable or required emergent care, urgent care, hospitalization or intubation during the past 2 years or that is expected to require the use of oral or intravenous corticosteroids. 12. History of hereditary angioedema, acquired angioedema or idiopathic forms of angioedema. 13. History of idiopathic urticaria within the past year. 14. Current or recent (< 2 years ago) heavy smoking (> 20 cigarettes per day). If candidate stopped smoking > 2 years ago, the investigator will make an individual judgement based on the total packs per year and the candidate's overall health status. Drug - or alcohol abuse/addiction (including alcohol dependence), or psychiatric condition (e.g. past or present psychoses; disorder requiring lithium; or within 5 years prior to administration of study vaccine, a history of suicide plan or attempt), which in the investigator's opinion could compromise the participant's safety and/or compliance with the protocol. 15. A rash, dermatological condition or tattoos that would, in the opinion of the investigator, interfere with injection local reaction rating. Prior/Concomitant Therapy 16. Prior receipt of an investigational or licensed seasonal or pandemic influenza vaccine in the 9 months before administration of study vaccine or planning to receive the influenza vaccination during the study period. 17. Prior receipt of a live attenuated vaccine in the 28 days prior to administration of study vaccine, or within 14 days for subunit or inactivated vaccines other than seasonal or pandemic influenza vaccination, excluding COVID-19 vaccine. 18. Prior receipt of vaccination with TETRALITE + 0.5 mg LVA or TETRALITE + 2 mg LVA. 19. Prior receipt of COVID-19 vaccine in the 7 days before administration of study vaccine, or planning to receive a COVID-19 vaccine during the first 14 days following study vaccination. 20. Planning to receive a vaccine during the first 28 days following the administration of study vaccine, other than COVID-19 vaccine. 21. Currently participating in another clinical study, or planning to participate in another study during the study period, or administration of any investigational drug, vaccine or medical device in the 4 weeks prior to study vaccination (with the exception of influenza vaccine, refer to exclusion criterium 16). 22. Prior receipt of blood, blood-derived products or immunoglobulins in the 6 months prior to administration of study vaccine, or planning to receipt such product during the study period. 23. Chronic administration (defined as 14 consecutive days in total) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs during the period starting 90 days prior to vaccination or planned administration during the study (excluding topical, inhaled and intranasal preparations and intra-articular injections). For corticosteroids, this is prednisone >= 20 mg/day, or equivalent. 24. Current intake of more than 1 anticoagulant medication (coumarin derivatives, low molecular weight heparin, DOAC) or 1 anticoagulant medication in combination with antiaggregation medication. 25. Current anti-tuberculosis prophylaxis or therapy. 26. Elective surgery planned in the first 14 days following study vaccination. Other Exclusion Criteria 27. WOCBP who are pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study. 28.
