PG - 1-9 LID - 10.1080/21645515.2021.1967041 [doi] AB - To control seasonal influenza epidemics in elders, a quadrivalent, inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine (IIV4) comprising A and B lineages is produced for young individuals and adults aged >/=60 years. In this phase III, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial, we compared safety and immunogenicity of IIV4 with a licensed quadrivalent inactivated vaccine (IIV4-HL) produced by Hualan Biological Engineering during the 2019 influenza season. Participants were randomly assigned to receive IIV4 (n = 959) or IIV4-HL (n = 959). Compared to IIV4-HL, geometric mean titers (GMT) of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titers and seroconversion rate (SCR) of IIV4 demonstrated better antibody responses in A lineages (H1N1 and H3N2) (P < .01) and equivalent antibody responses in B lineages (B/Yamagata and B/Victoria) (P > .01) in both age groups. After immunization, IIV4 provided a satisfactory SCR and seroprotection rate (SPR) in elders. No discernible variation in immunogenicity was observed between the two age cohorts. In both age groups, IIV4 and IIV4-HL recipients experienced similar levels of solicited and unsolicited adverse events (AEs), and the incidence of AEs was low in both vaccine groups. Most AEs were of mild-to-moderate severity and no grade 3 AEs in IIV4 group, but AEs in adults aged 60-65 were little higher than in adults over 65 years in IIV4 and IIV4-HL groups (IIV4: 14.66% vs. 10.36%; IIV4-HL:14.67% vs. 11.43%). Totally, IIV4 was generally well tolerated and induced high antibody titers against all four influenza strains in elderly, making it a compelling alternative for the elderly aged >/=60 years.Trial registration: Clinical Trials.gov: 2015L00649-2.
