Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safe Administration of Flu Vaccine to Egg Allergic Children (NCT NCT01264601)

NCT ID: NCT01264601

Last Updated: 2017-10-26

Results Overview

After randomization, group 1 will receive a 10%/90% (or 20%/80% for 0.25ml) graded challenge of the age appropriate TIV dose, separated by 30 minutes for observation. Group 2 will receive a first dose consisting of normal saline at a volume equal to 10% of their age appropriate dose, and the second dose will consist of their full age appropriate dose as the "90%" equivalent, also separated by 30 minutes of observation. For children receiving a 0.25ml dose, a 20%/80% split will be used for ease of administration in drawing up the dose. All parties will report any adverse reactions occurring in the next 48 hours after vaccination that were not observed at the time of in office observation.

Participant Flow

This study was conducted from October 2010 through March 2012 at the University of Michigan.

After informed consent process, parents filled out a questionnaire, detailing their child's history of past reactions to the ingestion of egg and any prior influenza vaccines. This information was verified by medical record review. In addition, the most recent egg skin test and serum egg protein specific IgE were also obtained.

Measure
Single Dose
This arm will receive TIV as 2 doses, the first of which will be normal saline administered at approximately 10% of the total age appropriate dose volume, followed 30 minutes later by the full age appropriate dose. For children receiving a 0.25ml dose, a 20%/80% split will be used for ease of administration in drawing up the dose. Trivalent Influenza Vaccine : Age appropriate dose of seasonal Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (TIV), either 0.25mL under age 3 or 0.5mL over the age of 3.
Graded Challenge
Subjects in this arm will receive TIV by standard 10%/90% 2-step graded challenge split of the age appropriate dose, separated by 30 minutes. For children receiving a 0.25ml dose, a 20%/80% split will be used for ease of administration in drawing up the dose. Trivalent Influenza Vaccine : Age appropriate dose of seasonal Trivalent Influenza Vaccine (TIV), either 0.25mL under age 3 or 0.5mL over the age of 3.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Population: Because no participants had systemic/severe reactivity, there were no participants who were TIV intolerant, and therefore no meaningful analysis of correlation of baseline characteristics to intolerance could be performed. All Baseline Characteristics collected for the original purpose of such correlation are reported in Baseline Characteristics.

Rates of co-morbid allergic disease, size and magnitude of egg skin and ImmunoCAP tests, presence of other food allergy, and tolerance of "baked egg" will be assessed through a screening questionnaire and chart review, and compared between the groups to assess for any significant differences that may predict TIV tolerance.
