Immunogenicity, Safety, and Tolerability of MF59-Adjuvanted Versus Non-Adjuvanted Influenza Vaccines in Patients With HIV-1 Infection
- Conditions
- H1N1 Influenza VirusHuman Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) Infection
- Interventions
- Biological: Focetria®Biological: Begrivac®
- Registration Number
- NCT01032408
- Lead Sponsor
- Chiltern Pesquisa Clinica Ltda
- Brief Summary
This is a phase III, randomized, controlled, open label study with two vaccine regimens. The study will assess the relative safety and immunogenicity of vaccine regimens comparing adjuvanted versus non-adjuvanted formulations of A(H1N1) inactivated influenza virus vaccine in subjects with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) Infection and to compare safety and immunogenicity data with a contemporaneously enrolled control group of age-comparable, healthy subjects.
Because certain individuals may be hypo-responsive to influenza vaccination, additional studies with high-risk groups are warranted in order to determine the optimal vaccine formulation and dosing schedule for prevention of novel H1N1 virus infection.
