Study Description

Brief Summary

The present phase III study aims to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of MF59-adjuvanted subunit seasonal influenza vaccine and to evaluate the consistency in the manufacturing process of three consecutive lots of MF59-adjuvanted subunit seasonal influenza vaccine with respect to immunogenicity in subjects aged 65 years and older. The active comparator non-adjuvanted seasonal influenza vaccine is approved for use in this age group in the United States and will be used to provide a comparative assessment for immunogenicity and safety.

    Title Comparison of aTIV Versus TIV in Terms of Percentage of Subjects Achieving Seroconversion Against Heterologous Strains-FAS
    Description The superiority of HI antibody responses of aTIV compared to TIV against the heterologous vaccine strains, in overall group and in subjects with pre-defined co-morbidities (high risk subjects), was assessed in terms of percentage of subjects achieving seroconversion, at three weeks after vaccination. Seroconversion is defined as prevaccination HI titer <10 and postvaccination HI titer ≥40 or at least a 4-fold increase in HI titers from prevaccination HI titer ≥10.
