Immunogenicity and safety of high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine in Japanese adults ≥65 years of age: a randomized controlled clinical trial.

ABSTRACT: A trivalent high-dose inactivated influenza vaccine has been licensed in healthy adults ≥65 years of age and provides better protection against influenza infection and related complications than trivalent standard-dose vaccine. This phase I/II clinical trial (NCT03233217), conducted at two sites in Japan, examined the safety and immunogenicity of a quadrivalent formulation of the high-dose inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4-HD). Healthy adults ≥65 years of age were randomized to receive IIV4-HD by intramuscular injection (n = 60), IIV4-HD by subcutaneous injection (n = 60), or a quadrivalent standard-dose inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4-SD) by subcutaneous injection (n = 55). Irrespective of administration route, post-vaccination (day 28-35) hemagglutination inhibition geometric mean titers and seroconversion rates were higher for IIV4-HD than for IIV4-SD. Hemagglutination inhibition geometric mean titers and seroconversion rates were also higher for intramuscular than subcutaneous administration of IIV4-HD. Solicited reactions were more common in participants who received IIV4-HD administered subcutaneously than in those who received IIV4-HD administered intramuscularly or IIV4-SD administered subcutaneously. Unsolicited adverse events were similar between the vaccine groups, and no safety signals were detected. This study showed that IIV4-HD administered by either intramuscular or subcutaneous injection was well tolerated and highly immunogenic in healthy Japanese adults ≥65 years of age. Although this study was descriptive, the results add to the evidence that high-dose inactivated influenza vaccines are more immunogenic than standard-dose vaccines in this age group and that intramuscular administration provides greater immunogenicity and lower reactogenicity than subcutaneous administration.

Project description:BackgroundHigh-dose influenza vaccines provide better protection against influenza infection than standard-dose in persons aged 65 years and above; however, in most countries, high-dose vaccines are not widely implemented. Assessing the relative effectiveness of high-dose compared to standard-dose vaccines on hospitalizations and mortality would enable more robust public health and cost-effectiveness estimates. This study aims to investigate the feasibility of conducting a pragmatic randomized clinical trial in Denmark comparing high-dose to standard-dose vaccines utilizing existing vaccination infrastructure and the Danish nationwide health registries for data collection.MethodsThe DANFLU-1 trial (NCT05048589) is a pragmatic, open-label, active-controlled randomized trial randomizing Danish citizens aged 65-79 years to either high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine or standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine. The study utilizes the infrastructure of a private vaccination provider (Danske Lægers Vaccinations Service) for recruitment, inclusion, randomization, and vaccination. All collection of baseline and follow-up data including safety monitoring is performed centrally by the Department of Cardiology at Herlev and Gentofte Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark using the Danish nationwide health registries. The study aims to include 40,000 participants during the 2021/2022 influenza season. The primary endpoints address feasibility and include the number of participants enrolled, randomization balance, and representativeness compared to the Danish general population. Relative vaccine effectiveness will also be assessed, however, this feasibility study is not powered for clinical outcomes and may be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.DiscussionThe DANFLU-1 study is investigating the feasibility of conducting a large-scale pragmatic clinical trial in Denmark utilizing existing infrastructure and the Danish nationwide registries. This will provide valuable insight, especially for potential future fully powered vaccine trials, but also for trials wishing to investigate other interventions.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov : NCT05048589 , registered September 17, 2021.

Project description:BackgroundTwo antigenically distinct influenza B lineages have co-circulated since the 1980s, yet inactivated trivalent influenza vaccines (TIVs) include strains of influenza A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and only one influenza B from either the Victoria or Yamagata lineage. This means that exposure to B-lineage viruses mismatched to the TIV is frequent, reducing vaccine protection. Formulations including both influenza B lineages could improve protection against circulating influenza B viruses. We assessed a candidate inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) containing both B lineages versus TIV in adults in stable health.MethodsA total of 4659 adults were randomized 5:5:5:5:3 to receive one dose of QIV (one of three lots) or a TIV containing either a B/Victoria or B/Yamagata strain. Hemagglutination-inhibition assays were performed pre-vaccination and 21-days after vaccination. Lot-to-lot consistency of QIV was assessed based on geometric mean titers (GMT). For QIV versus TIV, non-inferiority against the three shared strains was demonstrated if the 95% confidence interval (CI) upper limit for the GMT ratio was ≤1.5 and for the seroconversion difference was ≤10.0%; superiority of QIV versus TIV for the alternate B lineage was demonstrated if the 95% CI lower limit for the GMT ratio was > 1.0 and for the seroconversion difference was > 0%. Reactogenicity and safety profile of each vaccine were assessed. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01204671.ResultsConsistent immunogenicity was demonstrated for the three QIV lots. QIV was non-inferior to TIV for the shared vaccine strains, and was superior for the added alternate-lineage B strains. QIV elicited robust immune responses against all four vaccine strains; the seroconversion rates were 77.5% (A/H1N1), 71.5% (A/H3N2), 58.1% (B/Victoria), and 61.7% (B/Yamagata). The reactogenicity and safety profile of QIV was consistent with TIV.ConclusionsQIV provided superior immunogenicity for the additional B strain compared with TIV, without interfering with antibody responses to the three shared antigens. The additional antigen did not appear to alter the safety profile of QIV compared with TIV. This suggests that the candidate QIV is a viable alternative to TIV for use in adults, and could potentially improve protection against influenza B.Trial registrationClinical Trials.gov: NCT01204671/114269.
