Study Description

The study is a pragmatic, registry-based, open-label, active-controlled, individually randomized trial using the infrastructure of the Regional Vaccination Program of Galicia for patient recruitment, inclusion, randomization, and vaccine administration and the Galician health registries for data collection including baseline information, follow-up data and safety monitoring. Participants will have the opportunity of receiving all the information for the trial prior to the vaccination appointment. Informed consent will be obtained during the vaccination appointment by the study team prior to their vaccine administration. The participation in the study is voluntary, and only individuals who accept signing the informed consent will be recruited. Participants may withdraw from the study at any point.

The study aims to randomize at least 114.011 participants over 2 influenza seasons (2023/2024 and 2024/2025) with approximately 57,000 participants per season (pending any further potential sample size adjustments following interim analysis).
