Influsplit SSW® 2005/2006 6-9 years GroupInflusplit SSW® 2005/2006Subjects aged 6 to 9 years who received 2 doses of Influsplit SSW® 2005/2006 vaccine at an interval of 4 weeks (Day 0 and Day 28 ± 2).
Influsplit SSW® 2005/2006 10-13 years GroupInflusplit SSW® 2005/2006Subjects aged 10 to 13 years who received 1 dose of Influsplit SSW® 2005/2006 vaccine at Day 0.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Titers for Serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)

Titers of serum HI antibodies are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs) against the three influenza strains contained in the trivalent influenza vaccine Influsplit SSW 2005/2006 (GlaxoSmithKline/SSW) after a single versus after two vaccine doses of Influsplit SSW 2005/2006. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Seroconversion Factor (SCF) for HI Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)

Seroconversion factors were defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post-vaccination compared to Day 0. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 6 and 9 Years28 days after Dose 1 (Day 28) and 21 days after Dose 2 (Day 49 ± 2)

A seroconverted subject was defined as a subject who was either seronegative prior to the vaccination and had a protective post-vaccination titer of greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40 or who was seropositive prior to the vaccination and had at least a 4-fold increase in the titer as the outcome of the vaccination. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)During the entire study period, from Day 0 to 58 + 5 days (30 + 5 days after the 2nd vaccine dose) for the 6-9 years Group and from Day 0 to 30 + 5 days (30 + 5 days after the vaccination) for the 10-13 years Group

SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life-threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.

Number of Seroprotected Subjects Who Were Unprotected at Pre-vaccination Against 3 Influenza Strains in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

Seroprotection power (SPP) was defined as the proportion of the subjects unprotected before vaccination (titre \< 40) who were protected after vaccination (titer ≥ 40). The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Titers for Serum HI Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

Titers of serum HI antibodies are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs) against the three influenza strains contained in the trivalent influenza vaccine Influsplit SSW 2005/2006 (GlaxoSmithKline/SSW) after a single versus after two vaccine doses of Influsplit SSW 2005/2006. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Number of Seroconverted Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

A seroconverted subject was defined as a subject who was either seronegative prior to the vaccination and had a protective post-vaccination titer of greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40 or who was seropositive prior to the vaccination and had at least a 4-fold increase in the titer as the outcome of the vaccination. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with serum Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) titer ≥ 1:40. The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Number of Subjects With Solicited Local SymptomsDuring the 4-day (Day 0-3) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of injection site.

Number of Subjects With Solicited General SymptomsDuring the 4-day (Day 0-3) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

Assessed solicited general symptoms were Arthralgia, Fatigue, Fever, Headache, Myalgia, Shivering and Sweating. Any= occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 fever = Grade 3 symptoms greater than (\>) 39.0 °C. Related = symptoms considered by the investigator to have a causal relationship to study vaccination.

SCF for HI Antibodies Against 3 Strains of Influenza Disease in Children Aged Between 10 and 13 Years21 days post-vaccination (Day 21)

Seroconversion factors were defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post-vaccination compared to Day 0.The three influenza strains assessed were: A/New Caledonia (H1N1), A/New York (H3N2), B/Jiangsu.

Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events.During 31 days after the study vaccine dose (Day 0-30)

An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and 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 was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.
