Clinical Study in Children, 6 Months to 3 Years of Age, to Assess the Immunogenicity and Safety of Two Dose Levels of Thimerosal-free Fluviral® Vaccine, Using a Licensed Influenza Virus Vaccine, Vaxigrip® as the Control
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating GSK Biologicals' influenza vaccine GSK1557482A and Vaxigrip for Influenza. Completed, enrolled 390 participants across 18 sites.
Detailed Summary
Children younger than 5 years of age are at high risk for severe influenza disease (flu) and hospitalization due to flu. Scientists are in the process of re-evaluating the dosing initially based on whole virus vaccines to improve their efficacy in infants. In this study, we will compare two different dose levels of GSK1557482A flu vaccine. Another already approved flu vaccine made by a different company will be used as a control.
