3 Urban tertiary care hospital Rural Primary and Secondary care All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Rural Intensive Field Practice Area 2 Primary Health Centres, 12 sub-centers 28 villages, pop. 84, 748 Individual unique numbers in data base Longitudinal data on health indices and demographics Ballabgarh information from Dr. Sanjay Rai, Centre for Community Medicine, AIIMS 3

4 Studies in 2 phases Influenza vaccine direct and indirect efficacy Determine direct efficacy of influenza vaccination in children 6 mths-10 yrs Determine indirect effects of influenza vaccination among household contacts of vaccinated children Define influenza clinical disease and outcomes Define the Incidence rates and Epidemiological characteristics of influenza disease Determine optimum time period for influenza immunization Provide information about influenza and influenza vaccines in children that will be useful for decision makers in India and globally 4

5 Study Duration: Double blind Community Trial of Killed Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (NH) with Inactivated Polio vaccine as Control vaccine given in fall or early winter of each year Surveillance case definition for Influenza : Febrile Acute Respiratory Illness (FARI) Design: prospective, household randomized, controlled, participant/observer/investigator blinded 5

6 All ages in 3 villages in active surveillance ) (~17000 individuals) Weekly home visits: sample if febrile acute respiratory illness (FARI) Vaccinate fall: 6 m0-10 year (~3600): randomized by household, TIV or inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) as control Primary outcome: reduction in realtimert-pcr confirmed influenza infections in vaccine recipients and households 6

7 Northern Hemisphere (did not include pandemic virus) an A/Brisbane/59/2007 (H1N1)-like virus *an A/Brisbane/10/2007 (H3N2)-like virus a B/Brisbane/60/2008-like virus 2010, 2011 Northern Hemisphere an A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)-like virus; an A/Perth/16/2009 (H3N2)-like virus; a B/Brisbane/60/2008-like virus. Inactivated and live vaccines 7

8 Children >6 months of age and <through 10 years of age to received either influenza or control vaccine In the first year of the study children 6 mo to 8 y of age received 2 doses, those 9 and 10 y old one dose. In 2 nd and 3 rd years a single dose of vaccine was planned but this changed in response to 2009 pandemic,. In year 2 also 2 doses were given Children in control group received a licensed inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) on the same schedule 8

10 Case definition of FARI: Adult or child with self reported fever (now or past 7 d) AND any symptom of respiratory infection (e.g. cough, sore throat, rhinorrhea, or coryza). Active surveillance: field workers make weekly home visits and inquire as to the occurrence of FARI. FARI clinical assessments include include measurement of temperature, and respiratory rates, evaluation for cyanosis and respiratory distress, and oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry. Nasal and throat swabs obtained at FARI events, realtimert-pcr used to detect influenza. 10

12 Study database links: 1) an electronic Rural Health Information System database with house numbers and demographic data 2) paper forms used for field data collection that were optimized for optical character recognition 3) an in-house created laboratory data base that stored sample testing and laboratory results Scanned proformas uploaded to a secure server, downloaded at UAB, processed with TELEform software, and converted to a SAS database. Dr. Karen Fowler responsible for data management. Each week 17,000 individuals received home visits, generating ~ 884,000 person weeks of observation per year. Febrile respiratory infections generate ~38,000 proformas per year. 12

30 Phase 1 study will define direct (total) and indirect protective effects of fall TIV immunization in children Extension of study in phase2 will assess pre-monsoon immunization Enrollment and immunization rates for Influenza vaccine high, reflecting on high community acceptance Likely no benefits of vaccination in first year (due to vaccine mismatch), 3 rd yr vaccination done Emergence of pandemic H1N1 emphasized the importance of multi-year studies of influenza vaccine Weekly FARI Surveillance in ~16,000 villagers providing incidence data for Pandemic H1N1 in first year Ancillary investigations bring added value to the study and include measures of immunity and nutrition and testing for other respiratory viruses Efficacy analyses are under way 30

31 To assess genetic drift of pandemic H1N1, H3, and Influenza B over at least 5 years ( ) India is producing trivalent LAIV, likely licensure by end of 2012: An efficacy trial proposed in different village Rural villages study platform offers opportunities for further studies of influenza such as maternal immunization against influenza, other vaccines, the role of malnutrition in ARIs, the contribution of mixed viral infections, bacterial-viral interactions, exposure to indoor air pollution, etc 31

32 Assess the efficacy of a Live attenuated Influenza Vaccine that has been indigenously developed in India Compare the efficacy of Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV) with efficacy of inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine in the cohort 32

33 To study the relative efficacy of Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine as compared to placebo against laboratory confirmed influenza among children 2-10 years of age in a rural north Indian community To study the relative efficacy of inactivated trivalent Influenza Vaccine as compared to Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccineagainst laboratory confirmed influenza among children 2-10 years of age in a rural north Indian community 33

34 An open-label three armed community superiority trial Age group: 2-10 Years (depends on licensing) Outcome of interest direct protection only Unit of Randomization -Individuals 34

35 LAIV -Procured preferably from an Indian Manufacturer Must be DCGI approved and not an experimental agent. Selection of the vaccine would be done after a review of licensing status of approved and available formulations in India. TIV - Procured preferably from an Indian Manufacturer Must be DCGI approved and not an experimental agent. Selection of the vaccine would be done after a review of licensing status of approved and available formulations in India. Placebo - Should be present as we feel that LAIV vsplacebo comparisons have not been done in a limited resource setting. Since a large community based TIV vsplacebo trial is already underway at BallabgarhAIIMS, the same is a not that important an objective for the present study 35

36 Blinded preferable but given the practicalities, may have to be open label trial If blinding is to be done then The TIV arm receives an intranasal placebo The LAIV arm receives an i.m. placebo/control Placebo arm receives both intranasal and i.m. placebo/control 36

37 Assumptions for calculating sample size: Annual incidence of Influenza in target age group: 150/1000 person yrs. (conservative) Probability of Type-I Error: 5% Probability of Type-II Error: 20% / Power of 80% Protective Efficacy of LAIV: 80% Protective Efficacy of TIV: 50% Sample Size For LAIV Vs TIV vsplacebo : 622 in each group totals to 1866 child years For TIV VS placebo (466 in each group) = 912 child years ) 37

46 Initial plan was to perform the study in 2 villages, one influenza and one control vaccine Concern about village to village variability and limited number of randomization units lead to consideration of other randomization units: Individual (limits indirect protection in home if some children immunized and some not) Groups within the villages: mohallas(challenges in defining and social mixing) Household(reduces community level indirect protection) Chose household randomization. 46
