Comparative assessment of the tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity of the FLU-M® Tetra quadrivalent inactivated split influenza vaccine and the Ultrix® vaccine in volunteers aged 60 years and above.
Evaluation of the tolerability, safety and immunogenicity of the inactivated split influenza vaccine FLU-M® Tetra compared to Ultrix® vaccine in volunteers aged 60 years and above. Volunteers were screened and randomized in three groups: the Flu-M Tetra w/p (with preservative) group, the Flu-M Tetra w/o/p (without preservative) group and the Ultrix® group. All subjects were followed up for 28 days post randomization and vaccination.

Geometric mean titer (GMT) ratio of antibodies after vaccination
Geometric mean titer (GMT) of antibodies in the blood serums of vaccinated people in haemagglutination inhibition assay.
Time frame: days 0, 28
Change from baseline seroconversion rate at 28 days
Seroconversion rate refers to the percentage of subjects who have a prevaccination titer of influenza haemagglutinin antibody titer (HA titer) ≤ 1:10 and a post-vaccination HA titer ≥ 1:40 or a prevaccination HA titer \> 1:10 and at least a 4-fold increase in post-vaccination HA titer vs. the baseline.
Time frame: days 0, 28
Seroconversion factor
Seroconversion factor is an increase in the geometric mean titers of antibodies at Day 28 vs. the baseline level, expressed in the fold rise.
Time frame: days 0, 28
Seroprotection rate
Seroprotection rate refers to the percentage of subjects with a generated protective HA titer (at least 1:40) vs. the baseline level.
Time frame: days 0, 28
Frequency of development of AEs associated with the vaccination
An adverse event (AE) is any adverse medical occurrence in a trial subject who has received a pharmaceutical product or medicine that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the medicine. AE include: new disease, complication of signs or symptoms of the condition being treated or a concomitant disease, effect of the trial drug or the reference drug, effect associated with a trial procedure, any combination of one or more of these factors.
Time frame: days 0-28
