Study summary
The study aims to evaluate an egg-based H5N8 influenza vaccine up to 3 dose levels (low, medium, and high dose) given with or without adjuvant to see if the adjuvant improves vaccine effectiveness.
The study will enroll healthy adults aged 18 years and over. Participants will receive 2 injections in their arm of either one of the 3 dose levels of the study vaccine (low, medium, or high dose) with the adjuvant or the unadjuvanted vaccine (high dose).
Study duration per participant: approximately 14 months (including screening visit).
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
* Aged 18 years or above on the day of inclusion

Primary outcome measure(s)
- Number of participants with immediate Adverse Events (AEs) — Within 30 minutes after each vaccination
Immediate adverse events are medically relevant unsolicited systemic adverse events reported in the 30 minutes after vaccination
- Number of participants experiencing solicited administration site reactions (pre-listed in the participant diary and case report form [CRF]) — Within 8 days of each vaccination, including the day of vaccination
A solicited reaction is an adverse reaction (sign or symptom) observed and reported under the conditions pre-listed (for example: injection site pain or headache). Solicited administration site reactions are reactions at and around the injection/administration site
- Number of participants experiencing solicited systemic reactions (pre-listed in the participant diary and CRF) — Within 8 days of each vaccination, including the day of vaccination
All solicited reactions that are not solicited injection or administration site reactions
- Number of participants experiencing unsolicited AEs — Within 21 days after the first vaccination, including the day of the first vaccination, and within 28 days after the second vaccination, including the day of the second vaccination
Unsolicited AE: an observed AE that does not fulfill the conditions of solicited reactions
- Number of participants experiencing Medically Attended Adverse Events (MAAEs) — From Day 01 until the end of the study, approximately 14 months
MAAEs are collected throughout the study
- Number of participants experiencing Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs) — From Day 01 until the end of the study, approximately 14 months
AESIs are collected throughout the study
- Number of participants experiencing Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) — From Day 01 until the end of the study, approximately 14 months
SAEs are collected throughout the study
- Number of participants experiencing out-of-range biological test results (including shift from baseline values) — Up to 8 days after each vaccination
Safety laboratory assessments will include clinical chemistry and hematology
- Number of participants experiencing AEs leading to discontinuation — From Day 01 until the end of the study, approximately 14 months
AEs leading to discontinuation are collected throughout the study
- Geometric mean titer of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay antibody (Ab) titer — Day 01 and Day 43
Influenza vaccine antibody titers are measured by HAI assay
- Number of participants with HAI Ab titer ≥ 40 (1 dilution [dil]; ie, seroprotection) — Day 43
Influenza vaccine antibody titers are measured by HAI assay
- Number of participants with seroconversion — Day 01 and Day 43
Seroconversion is defined as HAI Ab titer \< 10 (1/dil) on Day 01 and post-injection titer ≥ 40 (1/dil) on Day 43; or defined as HAI Ab titer ≥ 10 (1/dil) on Day 01 and a ≥ 4-fold increase in titer (1/dil) on Day 43
- Geometric mean titer ratio of individual HAI Ab titer ratio Day 43/Day 01 — Day 01 and Day 43
Influenza vaccine antibody titers are measured by HAI assay
