Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Titers for Serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.	Titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs). The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA). The seropositivity cut-off assay was 1:10. The results for Day 0 and Day 21 are the primary efficacy variables.	At Days 0, 21 and 180
Secondary	Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.	A seroconverted subject was defined as a vaccinated subject who had either a pre-vaccination titer <1:10 and a post-vaccination titer =1:40 or a pre-vaccination titer =1:10 and at least a four-fold increase in post-vaccination titer. The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA).	At Days 21 and 180
Secondary	Seroconversion Factor for Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.	The seroconversion factor (SCF) was defined as the fold increase in serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) post vaccination compared to Day 0. The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA).	At Days 21 and 180
Secondary	Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease.	A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject who had a serum HI titer = 1:40. The 3 influenza strains assessed were A/Solomon Islands (SOLO), A/Wisconsin (WISC) and B/Malaysia (MALA).	At Days 0, 21 and 180
Secondary	Titers for Serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 4 Strains of Influenza Disease.	Titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs). The 4 influenza strains assessed were A/Wisconsin (WISC), B/Malaysia (MALA), A/Brisbane (BRIS) and B/Florida (FLOR). The seropositivity cut-off assay was 1:28.	At Days 0 and 21
Secondary	Geometric Mean of Influenza-specific Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 4 T-cells.	The mean was calculated for CD4 T-cells (per million CD4 T-cells) producing at least two different cytokines (All Doubles), at least CD40L, at least INF gamma (IFN-?), at least IL2 and at least TNF alpha (TNF-a).	At Days 0, 21 and 180
Secondary	Geometric Mean of Influenza-specific Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 8 T-cells.	The mean was calculated for CD8 T-cells (per million CD8 T-cells) producing at least two different cytokines (All Doubles), at least CD40L, at least INF gamma (IFN-?), at least IL2 and at least TNF alpha (TNF-a).	At Days 0, 21 and 180
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms.	Assessed solicited local symptoms were ecchymosis, pain, redness and swelling at injection site. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal everyday activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling/ecchymosis = redness/swelling/ecchymosis spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of the injection site.	During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post vaccination period
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms.	Assessed solicited general symptoms were arthralgia, fatigue, fever [oral temperature above (>) 38.0 degrees Celsius (°C)], headache, myalgia, nausea and shivering. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of grade intensity or relationship with the study vaccination. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever = 39.0°C. Related = symptom considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to study vaccination.	During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post vaccination period
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Medically Significant Conditions (MSCs).	MSCs were defined as conditions prompting emergency room visits or physician visits that were not related to common diseases or routine visits. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of grade intensity or relationship with the study vaccination. Grade 3 = event which prevented normal activities. Related = event assessed by the investigator as causally related to the study vaccination	From Day 0 to Day 180
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs).	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 = any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity or relationship to vaccination. Grade 3 = unsolicited AE that prevented normal activity Related = unsolicited AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.	During the 21-day (Days 0-20) post vaccination period
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs).	Serious adverse events (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.	From Day 0 to Day 180
