- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Influenza Vaccine Antibodies at Day 1- Per Protocol Analysis Set (PPAS) Day 1 (pre-vaccination) GMTs of anti-influenza antibodies were measured using hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay for 4 influenza virus strains: A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Victoria, and B/Yamagata lineages. Titers were expressed in terms of 1/dilution.
Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Influenza Vaccine Antibodies at Day 1- Full Analysis Set (FAS) Day 1 (pre-vaccination) GMTs of anti-influenza antibodies were measured using HAI assay for 4 influenza virus strains: A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Victoria, and B/Yamagata lineages. Titers were expressed in terms of 1/dilution.
Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion Against Influenza Vaccine Antibodies-PPAS Day 29 (post-vaccination) Anti-influenza antibodies were measured using HAI assay for 4 influenza virus strains: A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Victoria, and B/Yamagata lineages. Seroconversion was defined as either a pre-vaccination titer less than (\<) 1:10 (1/dilution) and a post-vaccination titer \>=1:40 (1/dilution) or a pre-vaccination titer \>= 1:10 (1/dilution) and a \>= four-fold increase in post-vaccination titer at Day 29.
Number of Participants Reporting Immediate Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) Within 30 minutes post-vaccination An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a medicinal product and which did not had any casual relationship with the treatment. An unsolicited AE was an observed AE that did not fulfill the conditions prelisted in the case report form (CRF) in terms of diagnosis and/or onset window post-vaccination. All participants were observed for 30 minutes after vaccination, and any unsolicited AEs occurred during that time were recorded as immediate unsolicited AEs in the CRF.

GMFR were calculated as the ratio of GMTs post-vaccination (on Day 29) and pre-vaccination (on Day 1).
