Open-label, randomised, parallel-group, multicentre study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of an AS03B/oil-in-water emulsion- adjuvanted (AS03B) split-virion versus non-adjuvanted whole-virion H1N1 influenza vaccine in UK children 6 months to 12 years of age

Authors' recommendations: In this first direct comparison of an AS03B-adjuvanted split-virion vaccine versus whole-virion non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine, the adjuvanted vaccine – while reactogenic – was more immunogenic, especially in younger children, indicating the potential for improved immunogenicity of influenza vaccines in this age group.
