Brief Summary

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

Licensed influenza vaccines are manufactured with a variety of technologies. The majority are split, inactivated vaccines derived from egg-adapted, high growth reassortant viruses. Two US licensed products do not use egg-adapted viruses: Flucelvax (mammalian cell culture) and FluBlok (recombinant). There is increasing evidence that egg propagation induces virus mutations that impair the immune responses to circulating viruses. However, the impact of egg-propagation on clinical vaccine effectiveness is uncertain, and there is no preferential recommendation for any specific influenza vaccine product or technology. A direct comparison of serologic response to egg based and non-egg based vaccines in adults has not been performed. This randomized trial will compare serologic responses to the egg- and non-egg A(H3N2) vaccine component. The study cohort will be followed for two influenza seasons to evaluate sequential vaccination effects on immune response.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Recombinant (RIV4) Influenza Vaccine

A single dose of licensed recombinant influenza vaccine will be given in each of two influenza seasons - one in 2018-19 and a second in 2019-20.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Recombinant

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Influenza vaccine that uses a hemagglutinin protein manufactured in insect cells with a baculovirus vector

Cell-culture (ccIIV4) Influenza Vaccine

A single dose of licensed cell-culture influenza vaccine will be given in each of two influenza seasons - one in 2018-19 and a second in 2019-20

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Cell-culture

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

inactivated influenza vaccine manufactured using mammalian cell lines; current vaccine uses a cell-propagated H3N2 strain.

Standard (IIV4) Influenza Vaccine

A single dose of licensed standard influenza vaccine will be given in each of two influenza seasons - one in 2018-19 and a second in 2019-20.
