H1N1v Vaccination of Pregnant Women: Longitudinal Cohort Study, Denmark, Phase 3
Summary
COPSAC (a non-commercial Danish sponsor) conducted a Phase 3 longitudinal cohort study in Denmark to evaluate the immune response and safety of the Novartis MF59-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine Focetria in pregnant women during their second and third trimesters. The trial tracked immune persistence over a 15-month period following a single maternal vaccination and assessed maternally transferred H1N1-specific antibodies in newborns. The EudraCT registration was first entered on 30 October 2009 and the trial status is now Completed.

What changed
This document is a completed EudraCT clinical trial registration entry for a Phase 3 longitudinal cohort study conducted in Denmark by non-commercial sponsor COPSAC. The trial evaluated the Novartis MF59-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine Focetria in pregnant women in the second and third trimesters, comparing adjuvanted versus non-adjuvanted formulations and tracking immune response persistence over 15 months post-vaccination. Secondary objectives included assessment of maternally transferred H1N1-specific antibodies in newborns and comparison with immune responses in non-pregnant women of similar age.
For stakeholders in pharmaceutical research, public health, and maternal-infant health, this trial registration represents a documented source of safety and immunogenicity data for adjuvanted influenza vaccines used in pregnant populations. The Completed status indicates the trial has concluded and results are available in the registry, making it a potential reference for H1N1 vaccination strategy development in pregnancy.

• Assess whether the adjuvanted vaccine offers a meaningful benefit in pregnant women in terms of immune response over the non-adjuvanted vaccine, and if so, whether a low dose adjuvanted vaccine is sufficient.
• Assess the persistence of immune response over a 15 month time period after one single vaccination of the pregnant mother.

For adults subjects aged 18-60 years:
• The percentage of subjects with seroconversion or significant increase in HI antibody is > 40%
• The percentage of subjects achieving an HI titer ≥40 is > 70%
• The GMR is >2.5
