Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A safety study to compare, over a 7 day period, the fever rates following one dose of either Influenza Virus Vaccine or placebo administered outside the influenza season to healthy children and adolescents aged 6 to less than 18 years.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study. Subjects were randomized to receive either CAIV-T or Placebo. All subjects were healthy children and adolescents aged at least 6 years of age and less than 18 years of age at the time of enrollment.

CAIV-T

The total volume of 0.2 ml was administered intranasally with a spray applicator (approximately 0.1 mL into each nostril).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Cold-adapted influenza vaccine trivalent (CAIV-T)

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The total volume of 0.2 ml was administered intranasally with a spray applicator (approximately 0.1 ml into each nostril). Each dose of CAIV-T used in this study contained approximately 10\^7+/-0.5 fluorescent focus units (FFU) (equivalent to 10\^7+/-0.5 TCID50) of each of the following three influenza virus strains: Influenza Cold Adapted Virus Type H1N1, strain A/New Caledonia/20/99; Influenza Cold Adapted Virus Type H3N2, strain A/ Panama/2007/99; Influenza Cold Adapted Virus Type B, strain B/Hong Kong/ 330/01.

Placebo

The total volume of 0.2 ml was administered intranasally with a spray applicator (approximately 0.1 mL into each nostril).

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The placebo consisted of physiologic normal saline.
