| Main Objective: To evaluate the magnitude of antibody responses to two or three doses of Fluad-H5N1 (H5N1 adjuvanted) influenza vaccine and seasonal Agrippal. ;Secondary Objective: 1. To evaluate the safety of the administration of two or three 0.5 mL intramuscular (IM) vaccination of Fluad-H5N1 (H5N1 adjuvanted) influenza vaccine, either given sequentially, concomitantly or mixed extemporaneously with seasonal Agrippal. 2. To evaluate the kinetics of antibody responses to one booster dose of Fluad-H5N1 (H5N1 adjuvanted vaccine) mixed extemporaneously with seasonal Agrippal when given 12 months after the first or second dose.;Primary end point(s): 1. Number of Subjects Who Responded to Two or Three Vaccinations of the Fluad-H5N1 Influenza Vaccine. 2. Geometric Mean Ratio After Two or Three Vaccinations of the Fluad-H5N1 Influenza Vaccine. 3. Number of Subjects Who Responded to Two Vaccinations of the Seasonal Agrippal (Strain H1N1). 4. Number of Subjects Who Responded to Two or Three Vaccinations of the Seasonal Agrippal (Strain H3N2). 5. Number of Subjects Who Responded to Two or Three Vaccinations of the Seasonal Agrippal (Strain B). 6. Geometric Mean Ratio After Two Doses of the Seasonal Agrippal (Strain H1N1). 7. Geometric Mean Ratio After Two or Three Vaccinations of the Seasonal Agrippal (Strain H3N1). 8. Geometric Mean Ratio After Two or Three Vaccinations of the Seasonal Agrippal (Strain B). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. 21 days after second and third vaccinations (day 43 and day 403). 2. 21 days after second and third vaccinations (day 22 and day 43). 3. 21 days after second vaccination (day 43). 4. 21 days after second and third vaccinations (day 43 and day 403). 5. 21 days after second and third vaccinations (day 43 and day 403). 6. 21 days after second vaccination (day 43). 7. 21 days after second and third vaccinations (day 43 and day 403). 8. 21 days after second and third vaccinations (day 43 and day 403). | — |
