Group Intervention Description GSK2282512A Group Quadrivalent influenza GSK2282512A vaccine Subjects aged between 6 to 35 months inclusive received 1 dose (primed subjects) at Day 0 and 2 doses (unprimed subjects) at Days 0 and 28 of quadrivalent influenza GSK2282512A vaccine. Quadrivalent influenza GSK2282512A vaccine was administered intramuscularly in the left anterolateral thigh (subjects \< 12 months of age) or the deltoid muscle (subjects ≥ 12 months of age). Fluarix Group Fluarix Subjects aged between 6 to 35 months inclusive received 1 dose (primed subjects) at Day 0 and 2 doses (unprimed subjects) at Days 0 and 28 of Fluarix vaccine. Fluarix vaccine was administered intramuscularly in the left anterolateral thigh (subjects \< 12 months of age) or the deltoid muscle (subjects ≥ 12 months of age).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Seroconverted Subjects for Anti- Haemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies Against Each of the Four Vaccine Influenza Strains of Quadrivalent Influenza GSK2282512A Vaccine. At Day 28 for primed subjects and at Day 56 for unprimed subjects A seroconverted subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with either a pre-vaccination titer less than (\<) 1:10 and a post-vaccination titer greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40, or a pre-vaccination titer ≥ 1:10 and at least a 4-fold increase in post-vaccination titer. The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/CAL/7/09 (H1N1), Flu A/Victoria/361/11 (H3N2), Flu B/Hubei-Wujiagang/158/09 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Bri/60/08 (Victoria). This outcome concerns solely subjects in the GSK2282512A Group.
Number of Subjects Reporting Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms. During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period Solicited local symptoms assessed were pain, redness and swelling. Any was defined as occurrence of the specified solicited local symptom regardless of its intensity. Grade 3 pain was defined as pain that prevented normal everyday activities. Grade 3 swelling was greater than 100 millimeters (mm) i.e. \>100mm.
Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms (Excluding Fever). During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period Solicited general symptoms assessed were drowsiness, irritability/fussiness and loss of appetite. Any was defined as any solicited general symptom reported irrespective of intensity and relationship to vaccination. Related was defined as symptoms assessed by the investigator to have a causal relationship to vaccination. Grade 3 irritability/fussiness was defined as crying that could not be comforted/prevented normal activity. Grade 3 loss of appetite was defined as not eating at all. Grade 3 drowsiness was defined as drowsiness that prevented normal activity.
Number of Subjects Reporting Any, Grade 3 and Related Fever During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period Any fever was defined as any fever ≥38.0 degrees Celsius (°C) irrespective of intensity and relationship to vaccination. Related was defined as symptoms assessed by the investigator to have a causal relationship to vaccination. Grade 3 fever was defined as fever ≥39.0 °C.

The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/CAL/7/09 (H1N1), Flu A/Victoria/361/11 (H3N2), Flu B/Hubei-Wujiagang/158/09 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Bri/60/08 (Victoria)
