Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antibody response to the influenza vaccine (AdimFlu-S), as measured by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) at 4 weeks post immunization in pregnant women in compliance with the requirements of the current European Union (EU) recommendations for the evaluation of the immunogenicity for a new formulation of a licensed flu vaccine (CPMP/BWP/214/96). Besides, the vaccine safety will also be evaluated.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The primary endpoint will be the seroprotection rate which is defined as the proportion of subjects with HAI titer ≥ 1:40. The other immunogenicity endpoints include seroconversion rate and geometric mean folds increase in HAI titer.

    The primary endpoint will be the seroprotection rate which is defined as the proportion of subjects with HAI titer ≥ 1:40. The other immunogenicity endpoints include seroconversion rate and geometric mean folds increase in HAI titer. Immunogenicity profile will be assessed before vaccination, 4 weeks after the vaccination and at the end of gestation period.

    Time frame: Immunogenicity profile was assessed before vaccination, 4 weeks after the vaccination and at the end of gestation period. Moreover, the HAI titer of the cord blood was also measured and compared with the maternal blood sample.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The secondary endpoint is to evaluate the safety and tolerability profiles including the presence or absence of the pre-specified reactogenicity events and other serious/non-serious adverse events of the AdimFlu-S.

    Safety outcomes include immediate reactions at the time of vaccination, solicited local and systemic reactions for 7 days, unsolicited adverse events until the first post-vaccination serum collected (Day 28), and serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest until 8 weeks after the delivery.

    Time frame: The safety information is collected from the day of vaccination to 8 weeks after the delivery.
