Brief Summary

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

This is an open label-study of Fluzone HD, a high-dose form of trivalent, inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV), vs. Fluzone, a standard-dose form of TIV. Subjects with cancer or HIV will be vaccinated twice with one of the two vaccines and evaluated for development of immune responses.

Detailed Description

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

The primary objectives of this study are to compare the immune response of Fluzone HD, a high-dose, trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV), to Fluzone, a standard-dose TIV, in children with cancer and in children with HIV.

The secondary objectives of this study are to:

* Describe the safety and reactogenicity of high-dose and standard-dose TIV.
* Compare the immunogenicity induced by 1 dose, compared to 2 doses, of high-dose and standard-dose TIV.
* Describe the relationship between baseline lymphocyte numbers/function and robustness/durability of the immune response.
