Subjects, 3 to 17 years old, received 1 dose of GSK2282512A vaccine at Day 0 or 2 doses of GSK2282512A vaccine at Day 0 and Day 28. The GSK2282512A vaccine was administered intramuscularly in the deltoid region of the non-dominant arm.
Subjects, 3 to 17 years old, received 1 dose of Fluarix™ VB vaccine containing the Victoria lineage B flu strain at Day 0 or 2 doses of Fluarix™ VB vaccine at Day 0 and Day 28. The Fluarix™ VB vaccine was administered intramuscularly in the deltoid region of the non-dominant arm.
Subjects, 3 to 17 years old, received 1 dose of Fluarix™ YB vaccine containing the Yamagata lineage B flu strain at Day 0 or 2 doses of Fluarix™ YB vaccine at Day 0 and Day 28. The Fluarix™ YB vaccine was administered intramuscularly in the deltoid region of the non-dominant arm.
Subjects, 6 to 35 months old, received 1 dose of GSK2282512A vaccine at Day 0 or 2 doses of GSK2282512A vaccine at Day 0 and Day 28. The GSK2282512A vaccine was administered intramuscularly in the deltoid region of the non-dominant arm for subjects ≥12 months of age and into the antero-lateral region of the left thigh for infants <12 months of age.
