Randomized Phase 1 Double-Blinded Placebo Controlled Trial to Determine the Safety and Immunogenicity of an Adenoviral-Vector Based Seasonal Influenza A Vaccine and dsRNA Adjuvant Administered Orally to Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the safety and immunogenicity of an oral
vaccine tablet to prevent seasonal influenza. The study was a placebo controlled, double
blinded trial at a single site. The study was conducted under two separate protocols.
Initially single administrations at two dose levels (low dose and mid dose) of the oral
vaccine was tested in a placebo controlled study (37 subjects). And subsequently a single
high dose of the oral vaccine was tested in a separate placebo-controlled study (24
subjects).

Low and mid dose study was conducted under protocol number VXA02-001

High dose study was conducted under protocol number VXA02-003
