Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Humoral Immune Response for Each Vaccine Strain in Terms of Haemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibody Titers.
At Days 0 and 21.

Antibody titers were expressed as Geometric mean titers (GMTs). The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/Christchurch/16/2010 (H1N1), Flu A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2), Flu B/Phuket/3073/2013 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria).

Number of Seropositive Subjects for HI Antibodies Against Each of the 4 Vaccine Strains.
At Days 0 and 21

A seropositive subject was a subject whose HI antibody titer was greater than or equal to the assay cutoff value of 1:10. The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/Christchurch/16/2010 (H1N1), Flu A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2), Flu B/Phuket/3073/2013 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria).

Number of Subjects Who Were Seroprotected for Anti-HI Antibodies Against Each of the 4 Vaccine Influenza Strains.
At Days 0 and 21

A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with a serum HI titer greater than or equal to (≥) 1:40 that usually is accepted as indicating protection in adults. The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/Christchurch/16/2010 (H1N1), Flu A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2), Flu B/Phuket/3073/2013 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria).

Number of Seroconverted Subjects for Anti-HA Antibodies Against Each of the 4 Vaccine Influenza Strains.
At Day 21.

A seroconverted subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with either a pre-vaccination HI titer less than (\<) 1:10 and a post-vaccination HI titer ≥1:40 or pre-vaccination HI titer ≥ 1:10 and at least a 4-fold increase in post-vaccination HI titer. The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/Christchurch/16/2010 (H1N1), Flu A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2), Flu B/Phuket/3073/2013 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria).

Number of Subjects With Seroprotection Power (SPP) for HI Antibody Titer Against Each of the 4 Vaccine Influenza Strains Above the Cut-off Value.
At Day 21

SPP was defined as the number of vaccinated subjects with a pre-vaccination titer \< 1:40 and a post-vaccination titer ≥ 1:40. The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/Christchurch/16/2010 (H1N1), Flu A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2), Flu B/Phuket/3073/2013 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria).

Mean Geometric Increase (MGI) for HI Antibody Titer Against Each of the 4 Vaccine Influenza Strains.
At Day 21

MGI also known as the seroconversion factor \[SCF\] was defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post vaccination compared to pre-vaccination (Day 0). The vaccine strains assessed were Flu A/Christchurch/16/2010 (H1N1), Flu A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2), Flu B/Phuket/3073/2013 (Yamagata) and Flu B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria).

Frequently asked questions about Fluarix Tetra

What is Fluarix Tetra used for?

Fluarix Tetra is a quadrivalent split virion influenza vaccine used for the prevention of influenza in adults 18 years of age and above. It is designed to provide protection against four influenza virus strains, including two A subtypes and two B lineages, as indicated in its clinical development program.

Who makes Fluarix Tetra?

Fluarix Tetra is developed by GSK plc, a global biopharmaceutical company listed on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker GSK. The vaccine is being investigated for its immunogenicity and reactogenicity in adults, as part of GSK's infectious disease portfolio.

What phase is Fluarix Tetra in?

Fluarix Tetra is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational vaccine, not yet approved by regulatory authorities. A Phase 3 trial has been completed to evaluate its immunogenicity and reactogenicity in adults aged 18 years and above.

What clinical trials is Fluarix Tetra in?

Fluarix Tetra has one completed Phase 3 clinical trial, identified as NCT02369341. This study, titled 'Immunogenicity and Reactogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' Quadrivalent Split Virion Influenza Vaccine Fluarix Tetra (2015 Season Southern Hemisphere) in Adults 18 Years of Age and Above,' was conducted in Brazil with 121 participants.

Is Fluarix Tetra the same as Fluarix?

Fluarix Tetra is a quadrivalent formulation of the influenza vaccine, containing four virus strains, whereas Fluarix is typically a trivalent vaccine containing three strains. The 'Tetra' designation indicates the quadrivalent composition, distinguishing it from the trivalent version.
