Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Absolute Vaccine Efficacy (VE) of aQIV Versus Non-influenza Comparator Based on RT-PCR-confirmed Influenza Due to Any Strain Using Protocol Defined ILI Definition.	Day 21 to Day 180 after vaccination or end of influenza season, whichever is longer	The primary efficacy endpoint was the time of first-occurrence of RT-PCR-confirmed influenza due to any strain of influenza regardless of antigenic match to the strains selected for the seasonal vaccine from Day 21 through 180 days after vaccination or end of the influenza season, whichever is longer, using protocol defined ILI definition. Absolute vaccine efficacy is VE=1-HR, where HR is the hazard ratio of aQIV vs non-influenza comparator estimated by the Cox proportional hazards model for the primary endpoint.
Safety Endpoint: The Percentage of Subjects in the Solicited Safety Subset With Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events (AE)	Day 1 through Day 7	Safety of vaccination was assessed in terms of percentage of subjects reporting solicited local and systemic AEs up to 7 days after vaccination.
Safety Endpoint: Percentage of Subjects With Medically-attended Adverse Events (MAAEs)	Within 30 days after of first occurrence RT-PCR confirmed Influenza	Safety of vaccination was assessed in terms of percentage of subjects reporting medically attended AEs within 30 days after of first occurrence RT-PCR confirmed influenza.
Safety Endpoint: Percentages of Subjects With Any Unsolicited AE	Day 1 through Day 366	Safety of vaccination was assessed in terms of percentage of subjects reporting unsolicited AEs up to 21 days after vaccination.
Safety Endpoint: Percentages of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAE), AEs Leading to Withdrawal, New Onset of Chronic Disease (NOCD), and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)	Day 1 to Day 366	Safety of vaccination was assessed in terms of percentage of subjects reporting SAEs, AEs leading to withdrawal, NOCDs, and AESIs up to 366 days after vaccination.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Absolute Vaccine Efficacy (VE) of aQIV Versus Non-influenza Comparator Based on Culture Confirmed Influenza Due to Any Strain of Influenza Antigenically Unmatched to the Strains Selected for the Seasonal Vaccine Using Modified CDC ILI Definition.	Day 21 to Day 180 after vaccination or end of influenza season, whichever is longer	The secondary efficacy endpoint was the time of first-occurrence of culture confirmed influenza due to any strain of influenza antigenically unmatched to the strains selected for the seasonal vaccine from Day 21 through 180 days after vaccination or end of the influenza season, whichever is longer, using modified CDC ILI definition. Absolute vaccine efficacy is VE=1-HR, where HR is the hazard ratio of aQIV vs non-influenza comparator estimated by the Cox proportional hazards model for the secondary endpoint.
Immunogenicity Endpoint: Geometric Mean Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Titers (GMT)	Days 1 and 22	The log-transformed antibody titers (GMT) at Day 1 and Day 22 were evaluated using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model including factors for site/country, pre-vaccination titer, age, and comorbidity.
Immunogenicity Endpoint: Percentages of Subjects With an HI Titer ≥1:40	Day 22	The percentage of subjects vaccinated with aQIV with a HI antibody titers ≥1:40 was assessed for each of the 4 strains Assessment criteria was considered fulfilled if the lower bound of the two-sided 95% CI for percent of subjects with HI antibody titer ≥1:40 met or exceeded 60% at Day 22.
Absolute Vaccine Efficacy (VE) of aQIV Versus Non-influenza Comparator Based on Culture Confirmed Influenza Due to Any Strain of Influenza Regardless of Antigenic Match Using Modified CDC ILI Definition.
