简要总结
This is a multiple sites phase II trial, randomized, observer-blind, dose ranging, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability of a single intramuscular injection of plant-based Seasonal VLP Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine administered in elderly subjects (50 years old and more).
A total of four hundred fifty (450) subjects will be randomized in six (6) groups of 75 subjects to receive one injection of either a non-adjuvanted low, medium or high dose level of VLP, a low or high dose level of VLP of the quadrivalent VLP influenza vaccine combined with Alhydrogel® as adjuvant or the placebo preparation (100 millimolar (mM) phosphate buffer + 150 mM sodium chloride (NaCl) + 0.01% Tween 80)
详细描述
This study will use cohort staggering (slow enrollment) for 3 non-adjuvanted dose levels (low, medium, high dose level of VLP per strain), 2 adjuvanted dose levels (low or high dose level of VLP per strain) and a placebo-controlled group divided in 3 cohorts:
- Cohort 1: Approximately one hundred and thirty-eight (138) subjects will be randomized and dosed as follows: seventy-five (75) subjects with the lowest non-adjuvanted dose of the quadrivalent VLP vaccine, nineteen (19) subjects with the medium non-adjuvanted dose of the quadrivalent VLP vaccine, nineteen (19) subjects with the lowest adjuvanted dose of the quadrivalent VLP vaccine and twenty-five (25) subjects with a placebo. The 7-day safety data after the immunization will be collected by the clinical staff and will be reviewed by the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB). The DSMB consisting of the PIs, the Sponsor's Medical Officer and 3 external medical advisors (voting members); the members will determine if the clinical sites are allowed to continue with the immunization of the second cohort.
- Cohort 2: Approximately one hundred and seventy-five (175) subjects will be randomized and dosed as follows: fifty-six (56) subjects with the medium non-adjuvanted dose quadrivalent VLP vaccine, fifty-six (56) subjects with the lowest adjuvanted dose quadrivalent VLP vaccine, nineteen (19) subjects with the highest adjuvanted dose quadrivalent VLP vaccine, nineteen (19) subjects with the highest non-adjuvanted dose quadrivalent VLP vaccine and twenty-five (25) subjects with a placebo. The 7-day safety data after the immunization will be collected by the clinical staff and reviewed by the DSMB prior to allowing immunization of the third cohort.
- Cohort 3: Approximately one hundred and thirty-seven (137) subjects will be randomized and dosed as follows: fifty-six (56) subjects with the highest adjuvanted dose, fifty-six (56) subjects with the highest non-adjuvanted dose and twenty-five (25) subjects with a placebo.

In the opinion of the Investigator, competence and willingness to provide written, informed consent for participation after reading the informed consent form. The subject must have adequate opportunity to discuss the study with an Investigator or qualified designee.
- •Healthy as judged by the Investigator or designee and determined by general physical examination, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, and medical history conducted no more than 90 days prior to study vaccine administration. Subjects with a pre-existing chronic disease will be allowed to participate if the disease is stable and, according to the Investigator's judgment, the condition is unlikely confound the results of the study or pose additional risk to the subject by participating in the study. Stable disease is defined as no new onset of exacerbation of pre-existing chronic disease 6 months prior to immunization. Based on Investigator's judgment, a subject with more recent stabilisation of a disease may still be eligible.
- •Comprehension of the study requirements, expressed availability for the required study period, ability to attend scheduled visits, accessible by phone on a consistent basis.
- •If female, have a negative serum pregnancy test result at screening and negative urine pregnancy test on Day 0 prior to immunization.
- •Female of childbearing potential must use an effective method of contraception for 1 month prior to immunization and agrees to continue employing adequate birth control measures for at least 60 days post-immunization. Moreover, she must have no plan to become pregnant for at least 2 months post-immunization. Abstinent subjects should be asked what method(s) they would use, should their circumstances change, and subjects without a well-defined plan should be excluded.
- •The following relationship or methods of contraception are considered to be effective:
- •Hormonal contraceptives (e.g., injectable, topical [patch], estrogenic vaginal ring, etc.);

- •Surgically-sterile (defined as bilateral tubal ligation or hysterectomy performed more than 1 month prior to immunization);
- •Post-menopausal (absence of menses for 24 consecutive months and age consistent with natural cessation of ovulation).
排除标准
- •According to Investigator's opinion, presence of significant acute or chronic, uncontrolled medical or neuropsychiatric illness. "Uncontrolled" is defined as:
- •Requiring a new medical or surgical treatment within one month prior to study vaccine administration which would interfere with vaccine evaluation or study completion (subject requiring medical or surgical treatment that would not interfere with evaluation [e.g., minor knee surgery, cataracts, etc.] would be eligible);
- •Requiring a change in medication dosage in one month prior to study vaccine administration due to uncontrolled symptoms or drug toxicity (elective dosage adjustments in stable subjects are acceptable).
- •Any medical or neuropsychiatric condition or any history of excessive alcohol use or drug abuse which, in the Investigator's opinion, would render the subject unable to provide informed consent or unable to provide valid safety observations and reporting.
- •Any autoimmune disease or any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive condition or immunodeficiency including history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, Hepatitis B or C, or the presence of lymphoproliferative disease.
