Primary Outcome Measures:
- Number of participants who mount an adequate immune response one month post vaccination to a double dose compared to single dose of TIV [ Time Frame: One month (28-35 days) post vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Determine the sero-response rate to each of the vaccine viral strains, defined as post vaccination hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) levels of ≥1:40 AND ≥4 fold increase over baseline HAI levels, in HIV-infected pregnant women receiving a double strength TIV dose compared to mothers receiving a single dose of TIV one-month after completion of the dosing schedule.
- Number of participants who mount an adequate immune response one month post completing vaccination to two-dose TIV administered 1 month apart, compared to single dose TIV [ Time Frame: One month (28-35 days) post vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Determine the sero-response rate to each of the vaccine viral strains, defined as post vaccination HAI levels of ≥1:40 AND ≥4 fold increase over baseline HAI levels, in HIV-infected pregnant women receiving two-doses of TIV spaced 21-35 days apart compared to women receiving a single dose of TIV one-month after completion of the dosing schedule.
- Number of participants in each treatment arm who have local and/ or systemic reactions post vaccination with TIV [ Time Frame: One week post vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Evaluate the safety of the three dosing schedules of TIV in HIV-infected pregnant women vaccinated between 12-36 weeks of gestational age.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Number of infants born to mothers who received double- or two doses of TIV who are seroprotected against influenza compared to infants born to mothers in single dose arm. [ Time Frame: Within first week of life (0-7 days) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Compare the proportion of newborns born to HIV-infected mothers in the double dose and two-dose arms with HAI antibody titers of ≥1:40 to each of the three TIV strains to newborns of HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected women (enrolled in separate parallel cohort) who received single dose of TIV.
- Number of infants with protective maternal antibody levels against TIV at birth and at 8, 16 and 24 weeks of age [ Time Frame: Birth to 24 weeks post delivery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Determine the kinetics of transplacental transfer of maternal Hemagglutinin (HA) antibodies and persistence thereof until 24 weeks post-partum in the infants.
- Number of infants born to women in double- and two dose TIV arms, compared to single TIV dose arm who are protected against laboratory confirmed influenza [ Time Frame: Birth to 24 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Compare the relative efficacy of a double-strength or two-dose dose TIV schedule compared to a single dose TIV schedule in pregnant HIV-infected women in protecting against laboratory-confirmed influenza illness in their infants up to 24 weeks of chronological age.
- Number of infants born to women in double- and two- dose TIV arms compared to single dose arm who are protected against clinical influenza like illness [ Time Frame: Birth to 24 weeks post delivery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Compare the relative efficacy of a double-strength or two-dose dose TIV schedule compared to a single dose TIV schedule in pregnant HIV-infected women in protecting against protocol defined clinical influenza like illness (ILI) in their infants up to 24 weeks of chronological age.
- Number of women protected against laboratory confirmed influenza in each treatment arm [ Time Frame: From date of vaccination (12 to 36 weeks gestational age [GA]) until infant is 24 weeks old. Anticipated mean GA at randomisation is 20 weeks, and at delivery is 39 weeks, so average follow up period is 43 weeks, however it could be as long as a year. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Compare the relative efficacy of a double-strength or two-dose dose TIV schedule compared to a single dose TIV schedule in pregnant HIV-infected women in protecting against laboratory-confirmed influenza illness in maternal participants up to 24 weeks post partum.
- Number of women protected against clinical influenza like illness in each treatment arm [ Time Frame: From date of vaccination (12 to 36 weeks gestational age [GA]) until infant is 24 weeks old. Anticipated mean GA at randomisation is 20 weeks, and at delivery is 39 weeks, so average follow up period is 43 weeks, however it could be as long as a year. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Compare the relative efficacy of a double-strength or two-dose dose TIV schedule compared to a single dose TIV schedule in pregnant HIV-infected women in protecting against protocol defined clinical ILI in maternal participants up to 24 weeks post partum.
- Number of women who mount immune responses (seroconversion /seroprotection)in each treatment arm [ Time Frame: From date of vaccination (12 to 36 weeks gestational age [GA]) until infant is 24 weeks old. Anticipated mean GA at randomisation is 20 weeks, and at delivery is 39 weeks, so average follow up period is 43 weeks, however it could be as long as a year. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Define and compare cell mediated immune responses to different dosing options of TIV in HIV-infected pregnant women.
- Number of women who have changes to CD4+ and/ or viral load results post vaccination in each treatment arm [ Time Frame: From date of vaccination (12 to 36 weeks gestational age [GA]) until infant is born. Anticipated mean GA at randomisation is 20 weeks, and at delivery is 39 weeks, so average follow up period is 19 weeks, however it could be as long as 30 weeks. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Evaluate the effect of TIV (single, double and two doses) on CD4+ cell count and HIV-viral load changes comparing baseline levels to levels at delivery.
- Number of participants in each treatment arm who suffer adverse pregnancy outcomes (maternal or foetal) after TIV-vaccination [ Time Frame: From date of vaccination (12 to 36 weeks gestational age [GA]) until infant is born. Anticipated mean GA at randomisation is 20 weeks, and at delivery is 39 weeks, so average follow up period is 19 weeks, however it could be as long as 30 weeks. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Describe safety outcome measures (maternal and foetal) of TIV-vaccination of HIV-infected pregnant women
