Study Overview

Brief Summary

Primary Objective:

To evaluate for each influenza strain the non-inferiority of Investigational Fluzone vaccine to the standard Fluzone® vaccine in healthy subjects aged 6 to 35 months or 3 to 8 years.

Secondary Objectives:

  • To describe the immunogenicity of of Investigational Fluzone vaccine to the standard Fluzone® vaccine in healthy subjects aged 6 to 35 months or 3 to 8 years.
  • To describe the safety of of Investigational Fluzone vaccine to the standard Fluzone® vaccine in healthy subjects aged 6 to 35 months or 3 to 8 years.

Inclusion Criteria

  • •Aged 6 months to 8 years but not yet 9 years on the day of inclusion.
  • •Subject is healthy, as determined by medical history.
  • •Institution Review Board (IRB)-approved informed assent form signed by eligible subject (if required by local regulations) and/or an IRB-approved informed consent form signed by the subject's parent(s) or legal representative (and by an independent witness if required by local regulations).
  • •Parent or legal guardian willing and able to attend (bring subject) to all scheduled visits and comply with all trial procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

  • •Participation in another clinical trial in the 4 weeks preceding the trial vaccination.
  • •Planned participation in another clinical trial during the present trial period.
  • •Personal or family history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome.
  • •Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, immunosuppressive therapy such as anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the preceding 6 months, or long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy injected or oral corticosteroids or other immunomodulator therapy within six weeks of the study vaccine. Individuals on a tapering dose schedule of oral steroids lasting < 7 days may be included in the trial as long as they have not received more than one course within the last two weeks prior to enrollment.
  • •Systemic hypersensitivity to eggs, chicken proteins, or any of the vaccine components, or a vaccine containing the same substances.
  • •Chronic illness at a stage that could interfere with trial conduct or completion
  • •Received blood or blood-derived products in the previous 3 months.
  • •Any vaccination in the 4 weeks preceding or following the trial vaccinations (Subjects can take standard childhood vaccination(s) following Visit 3 blood draw).
  • •Known current human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B (HBsAg) or hepatitis C infection or seropositivity.
  • •Known thrombocytopenia or bleeding disorder contraindicating IM vaccination.
  • •Acute medical illness, with or without fever, within the last 72 hours or an oral temperature ≥ 37.5 °C (99.5 °F) or rectal temperature of ≥ 38°C (100.4 °F) at the time of enrollment.
  • •History of seizures.
  • •Received antibiotics therapy within 72 hours preceding the trial vaccination.
  • •Received any allergy shots in the 7-day period preceding trial vaccination and/or scheduled to receive any allergy shots in the 7-day period after trial vaccination.
  • •Any condition, which in the opinion of the investigator would pose a health risk to the participant.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) Before and Post Vaccination With Either a Fluzone Intradermal or a Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine

Time Frame: Day 0 and Day 28 post-vaccination

Antibody titers against each strain of influenza hemagglutinin were measured in the sera using the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) technique.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Percentage of Participants That Achieved A 4-Fold Rise in Serum HAI Antibody Titer Post-vaccination With Either a Fluzone Intradermal or a Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine(Day 28 post-vaccination)
  • Percentage of Participants That Achieved Seroprotection Before and Post-vaccination With Either a Fluzone Intradermal or a Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine(Day 28 post-vaccination)
  • Percentage of Participants That Achieved Seroconversion Post-vaccination With Either a Fluzone Intradermal or a Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine(Day 28 post-vaccination)
  • Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reactions After Each Vaccination With Either a Fluzone Intradermal or a Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine - Age 6 to 35 Months.(Day 0 to Day 7 post-vaccination)
  • Number of Participants Reporting a Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reactions After Each Vaccination With Either a Fluzone Intradermal or a Fluzone Intramuscular Vaccine - Age 3 to 8 Year Olds(Day 0 to Day 7 post-vaccination)
