Influenza Vaccine and Pneumococcal Vaccine

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Pneumococcal Infections
Influenza, Human
Registration Number
NCT02582047
Lead Sponsor
Korea University Guro Hospital
Brief Summary

Previous studies have demonstrated the immunogenicity and safety of the co-administration of the trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV3) with the polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine (PPV) or pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV). However, there is no direct comparison study that evaluates the immunogenicity and safety of IIV3 given concomitantly with PCV13 or PPV23 in the elderly. This study is intended to compare the immunogenicity and safety of concomitant administration in the elderly subjects.

Detailed Description

During the influenza vaccination period, 224 healthy elderly volunteers randomly received IIV3 given concomitantly with either PCV13 (PCV13+IIV3) or PPV23 (PPV23+IIV3) in a 1:1 ratio. Serum hemagglutination-inhibiting (HI) antibodies for IIV3 were measured at the time of vaccination and 1 month after vaccination. Adverse events were recorded prospectively in a clinical diary during a 7-day period.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Seroconversion rates (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B)Change from baseline titer at 4 weeks

Seroconversion: a post-vaccination titer ≥1:40 in subjects with a pre-vaccination titer of \<1:10 or a ≥4-fold titer increase in subjects with a pre-vaccination titer of ≥1:10

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
GMT folds (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B)Change from baseline titer at 4 weeks

GMT-fold change: GMT ratio of the post-vaccination titer to pre-vaccination titer

Seroprotection rates (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B)Change from baseline titer at 4 weeks

Seroprotection rate: percentage of subjects with a post-vaccination titer ≥1:40
