NCT ID NCT05513391

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This study compared a newer recombinant flu vaccine (RIV4, also called Supemtek or Flublok Quadrivalent) to the standard egg-based flu vaccine in 366 children aged 3 to 8 years. The goal was to see if the recombinant vaccine produced a similar immune response and was as safe. The trial was terminated early, so the full results are not available.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV4, Supemtek/Flublok Quadrivalent)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a flu vaccine option for young children that is not made with eggs, potentially improving immune response and supply flexibility.
What could go wrong
The trial was terminated early, so results are limited. It was a non-inferiority study, meaning it aimed to show the new vaccine is as good as the existing one, not necessarily better. Early termination may reduce confidence in findings.
