A Study of Influenza Virus Vaccines in Children and Adults
A Study of Influenza Virus Vaccines in Children and Adults
The purpose of this study is to describe the immunogenicity of the prototype Quadrivalent
 Influenza Vaccine (QIV) compared with the 2009-2010 Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (TIV) and the
 2008-2009 TIV among children and adults.

 Primary Objective:

 To describe the immunogenicity of the prototype Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (QIV) compared
 with the 2009-2010 Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (TIV) and the 2008-2009 TIV among adults.

 Observational Objectives:

 -  To describe the safety of the 2009-2010 TIV among subjects ≥6 months to <5 years, 18-60
 years, and ≥ 61 years of age, and to describe the safety of 2008-2009 TIV and prototype
 QIV Fluzone® vaccines among subjects 18-60 years and ≥ 61 years of age.

 -  To describe the immunogenicity of the 2009-2010 TIV vaccine among subjects ≥6 months to
 <5 years, 18-60 years, and ≥61 years of age, and to describe the immunogenicity of
 2008-2009 TIV and prototype QIV vaccines among subjects 18-60 years and ≥61 years of
 age.

 -  Laboratory-confirmed influenza infection or vaccination against influenza in the six
 months preceding enrollment in the study.

 -  Any vaccination scheduled between Visit 1 and Visit 2 or Visit 3.

 -  Participation in any other interventional drug or vaccine trial during participation
 in this study.

 -  Thrombocytopenia or bleeding disorder contraindicating intramuscular vaccination.

 -  Any condition that in the opinion of the Investigator would pose a health risk to the
 subject if enrolled or could interfere with the evaluation of the vaccine.

 -  Prior personal history of Guillain-Barré syndrome.

 For subjects > 6 months to < 5 years of age:

 -  Known or suspected impairment of immunologic function or receipt of immunosuppressive
 therapy or immunoglobulin since birth.

 -  Personal or immediate family history of congenital immune deficiency.

 -  Developmental delay, neurologic disorder, or seizure disorder.

 -  Chronic medical, congenital, or developmental disorder.

 -  Known HIV-positive mother.

 For subjects 18 years of age and older:

 use for two weeks or more); cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy at the time of
 enrollment, planned during the period of this study, or at any time within the past
 six months.

 -  Diabetes mellitus requiring pharmacological control.

 -  Person deprived of freedom by an administrative or court order (having legal or

 -  Current use of alcohol or recreational drugs that may interfere with the subject's
 ability to comply with trial procedures.

 -  Any subject with the following conditions is not eligible for enrollment. However, the
 subject may be enrolled subsequently if the condition has resolved and enrollment is
 still ongoing and the subject meets all other inclusion/exclusion criteria:

 -  An acute illness with or without fever in the 72 hours preceding enrollment in
 the trial.

 -  Clinically significant findings in vital signs or review of systems (Investigator
 judgment).
