Eligibility Criteria

65 Years - undefined (Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participant is 65 years or older at the time of screening.
  • Participant is generally healthy, as determined by the investigator's clinical judgment through collection of medical history and performance of a physical examination.
  • Participant is physically and mentally capable of participating in the study.
  • Participant is willing and able to comply with the requirements of the protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participant has a history of infection with H5N1 virus or a history of vaccination with an H5N1 influenza vaccine.
  • Participant is at high risk of contracting H5N1 influenza infection (e.g., poultry workers).
  • Participant currently has or has a history of a significant cardiovascular (including hypertension), respiratory (including asthma), metabolic, neurological (including Guillain-Barré Syndrome and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis), hepatic, rheumatic, autoimmune, hematological, gastrointestinal or renal disorder.
  • Participant has any inherited or acquired immunodeficiency.
  • Participant has a disease or is currently undergoing a form of treatment or was undergoing a form of treatment within 30 days prior to study entry that can be expected to influence immune response. Such treatment includes, but is not limited to: systemic or inhaled corticosteroids, radiation treatment or other immunosuppressive or cytotoxic drugs.
  • Participant has a history of severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis.
  • Participant has a rash, dermatologic condition or tattoos which may interfere with injection site reaction rating.
  • Participant has received a blood transfusion or immunoglobulins within 90 days prior to study entry.
  • Participant has donated blood or plasma within 30 days prior to study entry.
  • Participant has received any influenza or any live vaccine within 4 weeks or any other inactivated vaccine within 2 weeks prior to vaccination in this study.
  • Participant has a functional or surgical asplenia.
  • Participant has a known or suspected problem with alcohol or drug abuse.
  • Participant has been exposed to an investigational product (IP) within 30 days prior to enrollment or is scheduled to participate in another clinical study involving an IP or investigational device during the course of this study.
  • Participant is a family member or employee of the investigator.
  • Participant has any other condition that disqualifies his/her participation in the study in the opinion of the investigator.

Arm Label

Influenza Vaccine

Arm Description

One dose of the vaccine will be administered at a volume of 0.5 mL by intramuscular injection into the musculus deltoideus in the upper arm on Day 1 and 22.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Co-Primary Evaluation of Immunogenicity by Single Radial Hemolysis (SRH) Assay: Number of participants with antibody response to vaccine strain (A/Indonesia/05/2005)

Co-Primary Evaluation of Immunogenicity by SRH Assay: Number of participants demonstrating seroconversion 21 days after the second vaccination
'Seroconversion' is defined as either a ≥25mm^2 hemolysis area after the vaccination in case of a negative prevaccination sample (≤4mm^2) or a ≥50% increase in hemolysis area if the prevaccination sample is >4mm^2.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Evaluation of Immunogenicity by SRH Assay: Number of participants with antibody response to the vaccine strain (A/Indonesia/05/2005)

Evaluation of Immunogenicity by MN Assay: Fold increase of antibody response 21 days after the first and 21 and 180 days after the second vaccination as compared to baseline
Evaluation of Immunogenicity by Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Assay: Number of participants with antibody response to the vaccine strain (A/Indonesia/05/2005)
Associated with protection 21 days after the first and 21 and 180 days after second vaccination defined as HI titer ≥ 1:40
