Seasonal Influenza DNA Vaccine & Seasonal Influenza Trivalent Inactivated Vaccine (TIV) in Children & Adolescents

This is a Phase I, dose escalation study in healthy adolescents and children (6-17 years) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a prime-boost regimen of the 2012/2013 seasonal influenza DNA vaccine (HA DNA) followed by licensed 2012/2013 TIV vaccine. The comparator groups will receive licensed 2012/2013 TIV as prime and boost. The hypothesis is that the 2012/2013 HA DNA prime-TIV boost regimen will be safe and result in a broader and more durable immune response than is observed in age-matched comparator TIV-TIV groups.
