  Purpose

Primary Objective:

To describe the immunogenicity of an injection of the investigational inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine 21 days after vaccination in 18 to 60 years old renal transplant subjects identified as non-responder to previous vaccination with the IM reference vaccine (Vaxigrip®).

Secondary Objective:

To describe the safety of an injection of the investigational inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine in 18 to 60 years old renal transplant subjects identified as non-responder to previous vaccination with the IM reference vaccine

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Anti-HA individual titers [ Time Frame: 21 Days Post-vaccination 2 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Individual titers ratio [ Time Frame: 21 Days Post-vaccination 2 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Seroconversion or significant increase [ Time Frame: 21 Days Post-vaccination 2 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Safety: Adverse events in the first 21 days after each vaccination; Pre-listed reactions in the 7 days following each vaccination; Serious adverse events during the entire trial. [ Time Frame: 21 days following each vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Study Group 1 Biological: Inactivated, split-virion influenza virus
0.1 mL, Intradermal. 2 vaccinations 12 months apart
Active Comparator: Study Group 2 Biological: Inactivated, split-virion influenza virus
0.5 mL, Intramuscular. 2 vaccinations, 12 months apart

Detailed Description:

The trial is a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial in renal transplant subjects aged 18 to 60 years who are non-responders to vaccination with the reference vaccine. Subjects will be randomized to receive either the 2007-2008 15 µg investigational vaccine or the 2007-2008 IM reference vaccine.
