Active clinical trials for "Influenza, Human"

Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib) remains a serious global health threat associated with high mortality and morbidity in young children. In China, The overall impact of Hib-related infections and the extent of coverage of Hib conjugate vaccines are unclear.Generally, vaccination has been considered the most effective way to prevent infection against Hib.In order to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of a haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) conjugate vaccine developped by Chengdu Olymvax Biopharmaceuticals Inc. a phase III clinical trial is planned to conduct in healthy infants and children in China.

This Phase 3 study evaluates the safety, immunogenicity and lot-to lot consistency of 3 lots of aH5N1c vaccine for pandemic avian influenza, in approximately 2394 healthy adults ≥18 years of age receiving the vaccine and 797 healthy adults receiving placebo. Subjects were randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive either aH5N1c vaccine or saline placebo. Enrollment was stratified by age: 18 to <65 years of age and ≥65 years of age, to allow adequate safety assessment of the entire age spectrum.

Influenza poses a heavy burden to our health service. The WHO estimates that seasonal influenza causes 250,000-500,000 deaths worldwide each year. Various strategies including intradermal vaccination and new vaccine adjuvants have been shown to improve immunogenicity. Recently, imiquimod, a synthetic Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist useful for the treatment of DNA virus infection, have been shown to improve vaccine immunogenicity against influenza virus in mouse model. The objective of this prospective double-blind randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effect and safety of topical treatment with imiquimod immediately before intradermal influenza vaccination in healthy young adults.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of IL-YANG Inactivated Split Influenza Vaccine (IL-YANG FLU Vaccine Vial INJ.) administered as a single intramuscular injection

In this study, the safety and immunogenicity of the current formulation of aTIV will be compared to aTIV-modified formulations in which the dosage of the MF59 adjuvant will be doubled or tripled and/or the dosage of the 3 influenza virus strains will be doubled, in independently-living elderly subjects ≥ 65 years of age.

H7N9 viruses have caused a recent outbreak of severe illness in humans in China. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response of an H7N9 A/Anhui/13 ca influenza virus vaccine followed by an inactivated subvirion H7N9 vaccine at varying intervals.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether FVH1, a DNA-based influenza vaccine, will be safe and generally well tolerated in healthy elderly adult volunteers and will result in greater immunogenicity when used to prime the immune response to a dose of a trivalent inactivated seasonal vaccine.

The purpose of the study is to compare the performance of two currently available influenza (flu) vaccines. This study will try and determine if the high dose flu vaccine provides protection that is the same or better than that of regular dose flu vaccine. Both the regular dose and the high dose flu vaccines are approved by the FDA for use in older adults.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity in healthy adult subjects of an investigational vaccine being developed for the prevention of pandemic influenza. The vaccine, identified as H5-VLP + GLA-AF, consists of a recombinant influenza virus H5 protein (hemagglutinin from A/Indonesia/5/2005) produced in a plant-based expression system assembling into virus-like particles together with the adjuvant GLA-AF.

The study is to assess whether the virosomal influenza vaccine for season 2012/2013 fulfills the EMA requirements for re-registration of influenza vaccines.
