Study summary

One-site dose sparing intradermal influenza vaccination in elderly had been studied but resulted in unsatisfactory outcomes. The investigators evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the two-site intradermal injection of influenza vaccine containing all 6 and 12 micrograms of hemagglutinin antigen per strain (with 4/10th and 8/10th of a regular 15 microgram HA/strain intramuscular vaccine respectively) in elderly over 60 years of age. An influenza vaccine administered intramuscularly at the standard dose is used as the reference vaccine.

Read the detailed description

The subjects would be randomly divided into three groups of 60 subjects each. Group1 receives a single intramuscular dose of 0.5 ml of trivalent influenza vaccine, containing at least 15 microgram of hemagglutinin antigen per strain, Group II receives two-site intradermal dose of 0.1 ml each, containing at least 3 microgram of hemagglutinin antigen per strain per site and group III receives two-site intradermal dose of 0.2 ml each, containing at least 6 microgram of hemagglutinin antigen per strain per site.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. immunogenicity

    evaluate the immunogenicity of the two-site intradermal influenza vaccination containing all 6 and 12 micrograms of hemagglutinin antigen per strain (with 4/10th and 8/10th of a regular 15 microgram HA/strain intramuscular vaccine respectively) in elderly over 60 years of age , as measured by the titer of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) antibodies, in order to determine whether it would meet the guidelines of the European Committee for Proprietary Medicinal Products (CPMP) for the annual relicensure of influenza vaccines

    Time frame: 4 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. comparison of the immunogenicity

    comparison of the immunogenicity of the two-site influenza vaccine administered intradermally as the above reduced dose with those of the reference influenza vaccine administered intramuscularly at the standard dose

    Time frame: 4 months

  2. safety

    evaluate for number of participants with adverse effects: * systemic effects such as fever, headache, myalgia * local effects such as redness, swelling, induration and pain by giving diary card for each participant to record the data once daily for 1 week. (the investigators explain how to grade the redness (no/yes), swelling by measure, induration by measure, pain (no/yes))

    Time frame: 4 months
