Safety and Immunogenicity of Live Attenuated Influenza H5N2
- Conditions
- Influenza Due to Influenza A Virus Subtype H5N2
- Interventions
- Biological: Avian Flu Vaccine
- Registration Number
- NCT01841918
- Lead Sponsor
- Mahidol University
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate immune response and safety of live attenuated influenza H5 vaccine candidate strain A/17/turkey/Turkey/05/133 (H5N2) manufactured by GPO, Thailand in healthy Thais.
- Detailed Description
It is a double blind randomized study using 7.5-8.5 log EID50 dose which is the same dose as being tested in phase I.
150 participants (100 vaccinees and 50 placebos) age 18-49 years old will be enrolled. All will be separated in 4 batches; Batch 1: 36 participants (24 vaccinees and 12 placebos) Batch 2: 38 participants (25 vaccinees and 13 placebos) Batch 3: 38 participants (25 vaccinees and 13 placebos) Batch 4: 38 participants (26 vaccinees and 12 placebos)
Each batch will be admitted in the isolation ward for 5 days after each immunization mainly for safety assessment. Two doses of live attenuated influenza H5 vaccine candidate strain A/17/turkey/Turkey/05/133 (H5N2) will be given by intranasal route 28 days apart. Total follow up is 60 day.

Group Intervention Description A/17/turkey/Turkey/05/133 (H5N2) Avian Flu Vaccine 100 participants will be admitted in the isolation ward for 5 days after each immunization mainly for safety assessment. Two doses of live attenuated influenza H5 vaccine candidate strain A/17/turkey/Turkey/05/133 (H5N2) will be given by intranasal route 28 days apart and will be followed for the total of 60 days. Placebo Avian Flu Vaccine 50 participants will be admitted in the isolation ward for 5 days after each administered placebo mainly for safety assessment. Two doses placebo will be given by intranasal route 28 days apart and will be followed for the total of 60 days.
