Brief summary

Open label, single arm, multicenter study of the shedding and safety of a single dose of trivalent, influenza virus vaccine live, intranasal in children 6 to \< 60 months of age, with 28-day shedding follow-up and 180-day safety follow-up.

Detailed description

This was a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multicenter study designed to evaluate vaccine virus shedding and safety of trivalent influenza virus vaccine live, intranasal in children 6 to \< 60 months of age. Enrollment of approximately 200 participants was stratified by age, with 100 participants 6 to \< 24 months of age (who reached their sixth month but not their second year birthday) and 100 participants 24 to \< 60 months of age (who reached their second year but not their fifth year birthday). Baseline medical history data collection included the participants prior receipt of influenza vaccine or history of laboratory-confirmed influenza illness in the previous influenza season.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALTrivalent influenza virus vaccine live, intranasal

A single, intranasal dose of 0.2 mL (approximately 0.1 mL in each nostril) FluMist trivalent influenza virus vaccine live on Day 0 of the study. Each dose of FluMist vaccine contained 10\^7 FFU of three influenza virus strains.

Number of Participants With REs in Relation to Any Vaccine Virus Shedding

REs were predefined solicited events that could potentially occur after vaccination. The REs for this study were fever, runny/stuffy nose, sore throat, cough, vomiting, headache, abdominal pain (stomach ache), muscle ache, chills, decreased activity level (lethargy), decreased appetite, and irritability.

Time frame: Days 0-28 after study vaccination (up to Day 28)

Population: Safety population included all participants who received any study drug and had experienced any follow-up for safety. Here, number of participants analyzed signified those participants who had REs.

Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Significant New Medical Conditions (SNMC) Through 180 Days Post Vaccination

An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. An SNMC is defined as a newly diagnosed medical condition that was of a chronic, ongoing nature and was assessed by the investigator as medically significant. SNMCs included, but were not limited to, diabetes, asthma, autoimmune disease (lupus, rheumatoid arthritis), and neurological disease (epilepsy, autism).

Time frame: Days 0-180 after vaccination (up to 6.5 months)

Population: Safety population included all participants who received any study drug and had experienced any follow-up for safety.

Quantitation of Confirmed A/H1N1 Shed Vaccine Virus on Any Day

Quantitation of confirmed A/H1N1 shed vaccine virus was evaluated using the log transformed median tissue culture infectious dose (TCID50) per (/) millilitre (mL) for A/H1N1 vaccine strain and summarized for all participants who shed vaccine virus.

Time frame: Days 1-28 after study vaccination (up to Day 28)

Population: Shedding population included all participants who received a full dose of study drug and had assay results from nasal specimens obtained at any post-dosing time point. Here, number of participants analyzed signified those participants who shed any confirmed strain virus.
