Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of Seqirus Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (QIV) in a Pediatric Population 6 Months Through 59 Months of Age. (NCT NCT02914275)

NCT ID: NCT02914275

Last Updated: 2019-01-23

Results Overview

Noninferiority of Seqirus QIV compared to comparator QIV was assessed by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody geometric mean titer (GMT) for each viral strain included in the vaccines. The GMT ratio is defined as the geometric mean of the postvaccination HI titer for the US-licensed comparator QIV over the geometric mean of the postvaccination HI titer for Seqirus QIV. B/VIC = B/Victoria B/YAM = B/Yamagata

Participant Flow

Subjects were enrolled from 27 September 2016 to 11 August 2017 from 39 study sites in the United States of America.

A total of 2339 subjects were screened. A total of 2250 subjects were randomized to study treatment. Due to not having valid informed consent, 3 subjects were removed from the clinical database. Therefore, overall 2247 subjects gave informed consent and were included in the analysis set.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Postvaccination (28 days after last vaccination)

Population: The Per-Protocol Population (PPS) comprised all subjects in the Evaluable Population who did not have any protocol deviations that were medically assessed as potentially impacting on immunogenicity results.

Noninferiority of Seqirus QIV compared to comparator QIV was assessed by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody geometric mean titer (GMT) for each viral strain included in the vaccines. The GMT ratio is defined as the geometric mean of the postvaccination HI titer for the US-licensed comparator QIV over the geometric mean of the postvaccination HI titer for Seqirus QIV.

Timeframe: Postvaccination (28 days after last vaccination)

Population: The Per-Protocol Population comprised all subjects in the Evaluable Population who did not have any protocol deviations that were medically assessed as potentially impacting on immunogenicity results.

Noninferiority of Seqirus QIV compared to comparator QIV will be assessed by seroconversion rate (SCR) for each viral strain. SCR is defined as the percentage of subjects with either a prevaccination HI titer \< 1:10 and a postvaccination HI titer ≥ 1:40, or a prevaccination HI titer ≥ 1:10 and a ≥ 4-fold increase in postvaccination HI titer. For the SCR comparison, the difference between the SCR for each vaccine (for each strain) will be determined.
