First Received: March 30, 2006   Last Updated: April 30, 2009   History of Changes
Sponsored by: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
Information provided by: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00310206
  Purpose

The purpose of this research study is to compare how the body reacts to different strengths of an H5N1 flu vaccine when given by different routes of injection (injection into the skin or into the muscle). It will also compare how antibodies (proteins produced by the body's immune system that recognize and help fight infections and other foreign substances in the body) are made after receiving the H5N1 flu vaccine. Participants may be involved in the study for 13 months or less. Study procedures include blood samples.

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Geometric mean titer (GMT) and proportion of subjects achieving a 4-fold or greater increase in neutralizing antibody titers in each group 1 and 7 months after receipt of dose 1.

  • Geometric mean titer (GMT) and proportion of subjects achieving a 4-fold or greater increase in HAU and neutralizing antibody titers in each group 1 and 7 months after receipt of dose 1. [ Time Frame: Blood samples for serum assays will be collected prior to first dose on day 0, prior to second dose on day 28, and on days 56 and 215 after the first immunization. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • GMT and the proportion of subjects achieving a 4-fold or greater increase in HAI and neutralizing antibody titers in each group 1 month after receipt of a 3rd dose of vaccine administered approximately 6-7 months after the 2nd dose of vaccine. [ Time Frame: Blood samples for serum assays will be collected prior to first dose on day 0, prior to second dose on day 28, and on days 56 and 215 after the first immunization. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Development of serum antibody responses against antigenically drifted variants of H5 influenza virus. [ Time Frame: Blood samples for serum assays will be collected prior to first dose on day 0, prior to second dose on day 28, and on days 56 and 215 after the first immunization. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:

This is a single-center, randomized, open-labeled, dose-ranging, phase I comparative trial of intradermal (ID) and intramuscular (IM) injection with subvirion inactivated influenza A/H5N1 vaccine in healthy adults, 18 to 40 years old, inclusive. This study is designed to investigate the safety, reactogenicity, and dose-related immunogenicity of an investigational inactivated influenza A/H5N1 virus vaccine given by ID injection compared to IM injection. This study is linked to DMID protocol 07-0022.

  • Able to understand and comply with planned study procedures.
  • Provides informed consent prior to any study procedures and is available for all study visits.
  • Is not receiving any regular medications with the exceptions of birth control pills and vitamins.
  • Meets all other inclusion criteria and must have received two doses of inactivated influenza A/H5N1 vaccine in the present study to be eligible for a third dose.

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects who meet any of the following exclusion criteria at baseline will be excluded from study participation:

  • Has a known allergy to eggs or other components of the vaccine.
  • Has a positive urine pregnancy test prior to vaccination (if female of childbearing potential), is lactating, or has the intention to become pregnant within 3 months of receipt of their second dose of vaccine.
  • Is undergoing immunosuppression as a result of an underlying illness or treatment.
  • Has an active neoplastic disease or a history of any hematologic malignancy.
  • Is using oral or parenteral steroids, high-dose inhaled steroids (>800 mcg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive or cytotoxic drugs.
  • Has a history of receiving immunoglobulin or other blood product within the 3 months prior to enrollment in this study.
  • Has received any other licensed vaccines within 2 weeks (for inactivated vaccines) or 4 weeks (for live vaccines) prior to enrollment in this study.
  • Has an acute or chronic medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would render vaccination unsafe or would interfere with the evaluation of responses (this includes, but is not limited to: known chronic liver disease, significant renal disease, unstable or progressive neurological disorders, diabetes mellitus, and transplant recipients).
  • Has a history of severe reactions following immunization with contemporary influenza virus vaccines.
  • Has an acute illness, including an oral temperature greater than 100.4 Fahrenheit, within 1 week of vaccination.
  • Received an experimental agent (vaccine, drug, biologic, device, blood product, or medication) within 1 month prior to each vaccination in the study, or expects to receive an experimental agent within 1 month after each vaccination in the study.
  • Prior receipt of influenza A/H5N1 vaccine, other than the present study.
  • Is enrolled or planning to enroll in another interventional trial at any time between receipt of the third dose of vaccine and the end of the study (approximately 6 months after receipt of the third dose).
  • Has any condition that would, in the opinion of the site investigator, place the subject at an unacceptable risk of injury or render the subject unable to meet the requirements of the protocol.
