Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change from baseline geometric mean titer ratio of antibodies for each virus strain (GMT (Flu-M w/p) / GMT (Flu-M w/o/p) at 6 months [days 0-180]

    The upper limit of bilateral 95% CI for the GMT ratio (GMT (Flu-M w/p) / GMT (Flu-M w/o/p) should not exceed 1.5

  2. Change from baseline the difference between seroconversion rates (seroconversion rate Flu-M w/p - seroconversion rate Flu-M w/o/p) at 6 months [days 0-180]

    The upper limit of bilateral 95% CI for the difference between seroconversion rates (seroconversion rate Flu-M w/p - seroconversion rate Flu-M w/o/p) should not exceed 10%

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Geometric mean titer of antibodies for each virus strain (A (H1N1), A (H3N2) and B) [days 0,28,180]

    Specific anti-influenza antibodies were determined using haemagglutination inhibition assay (HI assay)

  2. Seroconversion rate for each virus strain (A (H1N1), A (H3N2) and B) [days 0,28,180]

  3. Seroconversion factor for each virus strain (A (H1N1), A (H3N2) and B) [days 0,28,180]

  4. Seroprotection rate for each virus strain (A (H1N1), A (H3N2) and B) [days 0,28,180]

  5. Incidence, severity, and duration of influenza or ARVI during 6 months after vaccination [days 1-180]

  6. Incidence of adverse events (AEs) [days 1-180]

  7. Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) [days 1-180]

  8. Number of patients with abnormal results of blood pressure (BP) [days 0,1,7,28,180]

    BP measurements include the systolic and diastolic blood pressure.BP is measured on the brachial artery according to the Korotkoff method using a certified sphygmomanometer or tonometer. It is also allowed to use a certified electronic tonometer for measuring.

  9. Number of patients with abnormal results of heart rate (HR) [days 0,1,7,28,180]

    The HR is measured during auscultation of the heart in parallel with determining the pulse rate on the radial artery (or on the carotid artery in case of weak pulsation in the radial artery) for a minute while sitting.

  10. Number of patients with abnormal results of respiratory rate (RR) [days 0,1,7,28,180]

    The RR is measured for a minute at rest in the sitting position, by registering the breathing movements of the chest or abdominal wall.

  11. Number of patients with abnormal results of body temperature (>37 °С) [days 0,1,7,28,180]

    Body temperature (°C) is measured with a mercury or digital thermometer in the armpit for at least 5 minutes or with a non-contact infrared digital thermometer.

  12. Number of patients with abnormal results of physical examination [days 0,1,7,28,180]

    Physical examination of volunteers includes an interview, discovery of complaints and symptoms, when required, palpation, auscultation, percussion.

  13. Number of patients with abnormal results of neurological status [days 0,7,28]

    Assessment of: Cranial nerve function Motor sphere Reflex sphere Sensitive sphere Coordination sphere Pelvic functions Higher mental functions

  14. Determination of total IgE [days 0,7,28]

  15. Number of patients with abnormal results of electrocardiography (ECG) [days 0,7]

    2-lead electrocardiography (ECG). Assessment of: PQ, QT,QTc intervals, QRS complex
