Hide Baseline Analysis Population Description
A subject in 1x FLU-v adjuvanted group received 1x non-adjuvanted FLU-v. Subject completed the study but with this treatment, the subject could not be assigned to any group for analysis. This is the reason why 58 subjects were randomised to this group but only 57 were analysed, making the total subject number 174 rather than 175.

Measure Description: Serum samples were collected at screening (summer-autumn 2016) and later analysed for pre-existing neutralising antibodies against the main influenza strains that circulated in the Netherlands during the influenza season of 2016-2017 (B/Phuket/3073/2013, B/Brisbane/60/2008, A/Hong Kong/5738/2014 (H3N2) and A/Michigan/45/15 (H1N1)). The number of subjects with a HA titer for A strains ≥ 40 and with HA ≥ 80 for B strains was recorded in each group.
1.Primary Outcome
Title CD4+ and CD8+ Th1 Cellular Immunogenicity on Day 42
Hide Description Comparison of the TH1 response in the treatment arms compared to placebo from baseline to day 42 following vaccination, calculated as the median fold change in the number of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells positive for IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IL-2 and CD107a. Fold change is calculated as the number of cells on day 42 divided by number of cells on day 0.
Time Frame day 0 to day 42
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
FAS population: Full Analysis Set corresponds to subjects that completed the vaccination successfully and provided samples for immunogenicity analysis for baseline (pre-vaccination) and at least one time point post-vaccination. Only samples with acceptable positive and negative controls were used in the analysis.

Title Severity of Symptoms in RT-PCR Influenza-confirmed Subjects.
Hide Description Subjects recorded daily influenza symptoms from December 2016 up to March 2017. Subjects with a sudden onset of at least one respiratory and one systemic symptom were swabbed. If the results were positive for influenza then the symptoms were included in the analysis. The duration of symptoms was recorded as the number of symptomatic days during the influenza episode. Fever (≥38oC), malaise, headache, myalgia (muscle and joint pain), cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing and earache were scored on a severity scale of 0 to 3 (0: no symptom, 1: mild, 2: moderate, 3: severe). The daily severity score was the sum of the severity score for all symptoms listed above on a single day. The total score was the sum of all daily scores during the influenza episode. The peak score was the highest daily score during the influenza episode. The average score was the total score divided by the number of days the influenza episode lasted.
Time Frame Symptoms experienced during an influenza infection episode, approximately 7-10 days.
