Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of Naive Subjects 6 to < 36 Months Old Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events (AEs) From Day 1 to Day 7 Following Each Vaccination.
Number of naive subjects 6 to < 36 months old reporting solicited local and systemic AEs from Day 1 to Day 7 after first vaccination and from Day 29 to Day 35 after second vaccination.
Number of Non-naive Subjects 6 to < 36 Months Old Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic AEs From Day 1 to Day 7 After Vaccination.
Number of non-naive subjects 6 to < 36 months old reporting solicited local and systemic AEs from Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination.
Number of Naive Subjects ≥ 36 Months to < 72 Months Old Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic AEs From Day 1 to Day 7 Following Each Vaccination.
Number of naive subjects ≥ 36 months to < 72 months old reporting solicited local and systemic AEs from Day 1 to Day 7 after first vaccination and from Day 29 to Day 35 after second vaccination.
Number of Non-naive Subjects ≥36 Months to < 72 Months Old Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic AEs From Day 1 to Day 7 Following Each Vaccination.
Number of non-naive subjects ≥36 months to < 72 months old reporting solicited local and systemic AEs from Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination.
Number of Naive Subjects Aged 6 to < 72 Months Reporting All Unsolicited AEs From Day 1 to Day 50.
Number of naive subjects aged 6 to < 72 months reporting all unsolicited AEs, medically attended AEs, AE leading to study withdrawal and serious AEs (SAEs) from Day 1 to Day 50.
Number of Non-naive Subjects Aged 6 to < 72 Months Reporting All Unsolicited AEs From Day 1 to Day 22
Number of non-naive subjects aged 6 to < 72 months reporting all unsolicited AEs, medically attended AEs, AE leading to study withdrawal and SAEs from Day 1 to Day 22.
Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs), in All Three Homologous Virus Strains in Subjects 6 to < 72 Months of Age.
Antibody response was assessed in terms of GMTs in all three homologous virus strains, 21 days after last immunization, in subjects 6 to <72 months of age. The study is considered a success if the 21 days after last immunization GMT ratios of aTIV relative to TIV demonstrate as non-inferior with the lower limit (LL) of the two sided 95% confidence interval (CI) above 0.67 (-0.176 on log10 scale) for each vaccine strain (Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research {CBER} Guideline on Seasonal Vaccines May 2007).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentages of Subjects Achieving Seroconversion in Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Titers and Vaccine Group Differences at Day 1 and 21 Days After Last Vaccination With aTIV or TIV in Naive and Non-naive Subjects.
Percentages of subjects with seroconversion in all three homologous virus strains, 21 days after last immunization, in subjects 6 to <72 months of age, defined as: HI ≥ 40 subject with a pre-vaccination HI titer <10; a minimum 4-fold increase HI titer for subjects with a prevaccination HI titer ≥10, on Day 22 (non-naive subjects) or Day 50 (naive subjects), as applicable.
Geometric Mean Ratios (GMRs) of HI and Vaccine Group Differences at Day 1 and 21 Days After Last Vaccination With aTIV or TIV in Naive and Non-naive Subjects.
GMRs of HI, day 22/day 1 (non-naive subjects) or day 50/day 1 (naive subjects) in all three homologous virus strains, 21 days after last immunization, in subjects 6 to <72 months of age. As the non-inferiority of aTIV to TIV has been established, GMT ratio of aTIV relative to TIV in all three homologous virus strains, 21 days after last immunization in subjects 6 to <72 months of age was evaluated using margins greater than the non-inferiority cut-off of 0.67.
Percentages of Subjects With a HI Titer ≥ 40, ≥110 and ≥330 and Vaccine Group Differences at Day 1 and 21 Days After Last Vaccination With aTIV or TIV in Naive and Non-naive Subjects.
Percentage of subjects with a HI titer ≥ 40, ≥110 and ≥330 on Day 1, Day 22 (non naïve subjects) or Day 50 (naïve subjects), in all three homologous virus strains, 21 days after last immunization, in subjects 6 to <72 months of age.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The administration of adjuvanted Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (aTIV) has come to result in a more immunogenic and effective response compared with conventional influenza vaccines in elderly and adults. The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of Novartis aTIV in children 6 to <72 months of age, Mexican population, in comparison to Fluzone, a non-adjuvanted trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV).
