Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: In order to participate in this study, all subjects must not meet ANY of the exclusion criteria described below: 1.

| Measure | Time frame |

| Main Objective: Primary Immunogenicity Objectives: 1. To demonstrate immunological noninferiority of aQIV versus a nonadjuvanted quadrivalent influenza comparator (QIV) in subjects 50-64 years of age, as measured by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) and seroconversion rates (SCRs) for each vaccine strain, at 3 weeks after vaccination. 2. To demonstrate that aQIV induces a superior immune response compared with QIV in subjects 50-64 years of age as measured by HI GMTs at 3 weeks after vaccination for at least 2 of the 4 vaccine strains. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary Immunogenicity Objectives: 1. To demonstrate that aQIV induces a superior immune response compared with QIV in subjects 50-64 years of age as measured by HI GMT for at least one vaccine strain at 3 weeks after vaccination. 2. To demonstrate greater persistence of the immune response for at least one vaccine strain at 6 after vaccination with aQIV compared with QIV as measured by HI assay in subjects 50-64 years of age. 3. To evaluate the immunogenicity of aQIV compared with QIV as measured by HI in subjects 50-64 years of age. Secondary Safety Objective: To assess the safety and reactogenicity of aQIV and QIV in adults 50-64 years of age. ;Primary end point(s): Primary Immunogenicity Endpoint(s) Humoral immune responses in terms of HI antibody response against homologous egg-derived vaccine strains (A/H1N1, A/H2N3, B/Yamagata, and B/Victoria): - Geometric mean titer (GMT) of HI antibodies at Day 22; - Seroconversion rate (SCR) defined as the percentage of subjects with either a prevaccination HI titer <1:10 and a postvaccination (Day 22) HI titer =1:40, or with either a prevaccination HI titer =1:10 and a =4-fold increase in postvaccination HI titer. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The immunogenicity of the study vaccines will be assessed 21 days (ie, on Day 22) after vaccine administration by measuring HI antibody titers to the A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Yamagat | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Secondary Safety Endpoints Safety and reactogenicity will be assessed by the frequency and severity of: - Solicited local and systemic AEs for 7 days following vaccination (Day 1 through Day 7); - All unsolicited AEs for 21 days following vaccination (Day 1 through Day 22); - SAEs, AEs leading to withdrawal from the study, AESIs as collected from Day 1 through Day 271. Secondary Immunogenicity Endpoint Humoral immune response in terms of HI antibody response against homologous egg-derived vaccine strains (A/H1N1, A/H2N3, B/Yamagata, and B/Victoria): - GMT of HI antibodies at Day 22 and Day 181. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Secondary Safety Endpoints: Day 1 through Day 7, Day 1 through Day 22, Day 1 through Day 271. Secondary Immunogenicity Endpoint: Day 22 and Day 181. | — |
