Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a Phase III Randomized Clinical Trial, blind, multicenter, with active controls, to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (split virion, inactivated) from Instituto Butantan, in two dose scheme (0.25ml and 0.50ml), in infants and children under 3 years of age.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (split virion, inactivated)
  • Biological: Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (split virion, inactivated) containing Influenza B virus - Victoria lineage
  • Biological: Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (split virion, inactivated) containing Influenza B virus - Yamagata lineage
Phase 3

Detailed Description

The study will be carried out in multiple sites in Brazil, using a community-based recruitment strategy.

The study interventions are the Butantan Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (split virion, inactivated) in two dose scheme (QIV-IB/0.25ml and QIV-IB/0.50ml) and the active controls Butantan Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (split virion, inactivated) containing Influenza B virus

  • Victoria or Yamagata lineage (TIVV-IB and TIVY-IB), in a ratio 1:1:1:1.

The study population is healthy infants and children aged 6 to 35 months and all participants will be followed up 6 months after the last vaccination.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Ratio of Geometric Mean Titers (rGMT) of antibodies induced by QIV-IB/0.50ml compared to those induced by QIV-IB/0.25ml, for each strain, in infants and children from 6 to 35 months of age. [28 days after last vaccination]
