* Males or females 5 through 17 years of age on the day of first study vaccination.
* Parent or legally acceptable representative able to provide written informed consent and be willing and able to adhere to all protocol requirements including blood draws. Participant assent will also be obtained if required.
* If applicable, females of childbearing potential” (ie, ovulating, not surgically sterile) must be abstinent or be willing to use a medically accepted contraceptive regimen until at least 28 days after the last Study Vaccine.

* Antineoplastic chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the 6 months preceding vaccination.
Note: Use of topical, inhalant or localised tissue injections of corticosteroids prior to administration of the Study Vaccine or throughout the study are acceptable.
* Administration of immunoglobulin and/or any blood products within the 3 months preceding vaccination, or planned administration during the study.
* Participation in a clinical trial or use of an investigational compound within 28 days prior to the first dose of Study Vaccine, or within 28 days after receiving the final indicated dose of Study Vaccine, or plans to enter a study during this period.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: To demonstrate that vaccination with Seqirus QIV elicits an immune response that is not inferior to that of a US licensed comparator QIV containing the same virus strains as Seqirus QIV, among a pediatric population 5 through 17 years of age.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of the study are to assess the following:<br>1. To assess safety and tolerability of Seqirus QIV, among children 5 through 17 years of age in two age strata: 5 through 8 years of age, and 9 through 17 years of age, as well as overall.<br>2. To characterize the immunogenicity of Seqirus QIV and the US-licensed comparator QIV in two age strata: 5 through 8 years of age, and 9 through 17 years of age, as well as overall.;Primary end point(s): 1. The Geometric Mean Titre (GMT) ratio of each virus strain<br>2. The difference in Seroconversion Rate (SCR) for each virus strain<br><br><br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. 28 days after last vaccination<br>2. 28 days after last vaccination<br>
