GRIPPOL® PLUS — TRIVALENT INFLUENZA VACCINE WITH PROVEN EFFIСACY AND SAFETY
Influenza vaccination: the health of the vaccinated under the immune umbrella
Immunogenicity of Grippol® Plus meets WHO requirements
Sulfur protection, %
Antibody titration fold increase
Seroconversion, %
- Grippol®provides effective protection to all three antigens of current influenza virus strains in 95-100% vaccinated
- More than 70% of those vaccinated have a quadruple increase in antibody titration.
- After vaccination, protective antibody titer increases 4 fold or more
A strong immune response is formed as early as 8-12 days after vaccination and lasts up to 12 months

Safety Immunogenicity of vaccines containing 5 and 10 µg of haemagglutinin of each strain Groups: Grippol® Grippol Plus (5 µg per strain) Grippol plus (10 µg per strain) |
Safety
Mild normal overall vaccine reactions were reported in 6.9% of vaccinated persons (malaise, low grade fever). None of the vaccinated persons experienced severe general vaccine reactions or post-vaccination complications. Local reactions (soreness at the injection site for 30-60 minutes) were noted in 14.8% of vaccinated persons. |

Comparison of safety and immunogenicity using two vaccination regimens: Group 1 - double dose 0.5 ml with 21-28 weeks interval Group 2 - double dose 0.25 ml with 21-28 weeks interval |
Safety:
None of the regimens affected clinical blood parameters Local reactions (pain, redness, swelling) after the first and second vaccination vary in the range: 3.1% – 7.4% General reactions (headache, malaise, poor appetite, sleep disturbance, sweating, runny nose, cough) range from 1.5% to 14.5%. They were all short-lived and did not require medicamental correction. |

Immunogenicity after 1 month and 6 months Preventive Efficacy |
Safety:
Local reactions (pain, redness, itching, induration at the injection site) were reported in 16.6% of those vaccinated. Were resolved without treatment within 3 days. Common reactions have been reported in 22% of those vaccinated. The most common are headache (14%-16%), joint pain (2.5%-3.4%), low grade fever (up to 37.5) - 2.5%. All reactions were short-lived and were resolved without treatment. ImmunogenicityOne month after vaccination: Percentage of individuals with protective titer: 67.4 % - 80.0% Percentage of persons with 4-fold increase: 39.0 % - 68.9% Antibody Titers fold increase: 2.6 (for influenza B) — 6.5 (for influenza A) 6 months after vaccination: Percentage of individuals with protective titer: 53.80% - 64.4% Percentage of persons with 4-fold increase: 21.7%- 55.1% Fold increase compared to baseline: 1.8 (for influenza B) -4.3 (for influenza A) Preventive Efficacy:A decrease in the morbidity of acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) and the frequency of exacerbations of underlying chronic disease in the vaccinated group. |

Safety Immunogenicity Vaccines: Grippol® plus Influvac |
Safety
Both vaccines have shown a favourable safety profile with respect to general and local reactions. No significant differences in safety and tolerability of the two vaccines have been found. Immunogenicity1 month later, the fold increase in the A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B strains were respectively: 2.1 to 4.7, 2.5 to 3.7 and 1.3 to 2.7 in children with allergies and 2.8 to 3.5, 1.8 to 2.1 and 1.4 to 1.6 in healthy children. The proportion with a 4-fold increase among those initially seronegative was 45.5%-52.9% in the Grippol® Plus group and 50.0%-63.6% in the Influvac group. The proportion of individuals with a protective titer was 69.2%-80.8% in the Grippol Plus group and 64.7%-94.1% in the Influvac group. No significant differences in vaccine immunogenicity were found |

Schools with vaccination coverage of ≥ 60% of students had a 40% lower overall morbidity of ARVI (cases per 1,000) than schools with vaccination coverage of about 60% 3. Schools with ≥ 60% coverage had 3.4 times fewer RRI children than schools with a low “immune layer” (3.1% and 10.6% of children, respectively, p < 0.01) |
