Study summary

This is a multicenter, open-label, blank-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the impact of influenza vaccination and pneumococcal vaccination on disease progression and medical burden in COPD patients aged 45-80 years, as well as the safety and immunogenicity of vaccination. COPD patients aged 45-80 years are recruited. On the basis of informed consent and voluntary participation, influenza and pneumococcal vaccination are carried out. At each site, towns/subdistricts will be randomly assigned as clusters to one of four groups in a 2:2:2:1 ratio: influenza vaccine group, pneumonia vaccine group, combined vaccination group, and blank control group. Follow-up lasts 12 months from informed consent.

For the immunogenicity subgroup, during the period from September 1, 2026 to October 31, 2026, the first 50 participants enrolled for influenza vaccination at each site (Dongtai City and Wujin District) are included in the influenza vaccine immunogenicity subgroup, and the first 50 participants enrolled for pneumococcal vaccination at each site are included in the pneumococcal vaccine immunogenicity subgroup, with the two subgroups serving as mutual controls. Blood samples (5ml each time) are collected before vaccination and at 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months after vaccination.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Meet the GOLD diagnostic criteria for : presence of risk factors and/or clinical symptoms and pulmonary function test showing persistent airflow limitation (i.e., post-bronchodilator /FVC \< 70%), after excluding other diagnoses.
  • Aged between 45 and 80 years.
  • Provide and sign the informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Combined with structural lung disease (including: bronchiectasis, interstitial lung disease, old tuberculosis, diffuse panbronchiolitis, obliterative bronchiolitis, atelectasis, destroyed lung, congenital lung dysplasia, post-lung resection).
  • Combined with lung .
  • Combined with acute phase or unstable cardiovascular, liver, kidney, neurological or psychiatric diseases.
  • Pregnant, lactating women, or those planning pregnancy within 1 year.
  • History of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccination within 5 years.
  • Other conditions that, in the investigator's judgment, make the subject unsuitable for participation in this study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

COPD

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.

FEV1

From a breathing test (spirometry): how much air you can blow out in the first second. Often given as a percentage of what is expected for your age, height and sex.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Jun 2026; primary completion for Jun 2027, 12 months later.

Of 101 non-industry phase 4 interventional studies under Influenza, Human, half reached primary completion within 19 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 52. This study's planned 12 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 137 studies reached it within 14 months; a quarter within 3 and three quarters within 37.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 11, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
