About this trial
This study aims to demonstrate the safety and immunogenicity of two formulations of the monovalent influenza vaccine candidate A (H5N8) (inactivated, fragmented, and adjuvanted with IB160) from the Instituto Butantan in adults and older adults, to be developed for situations of pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of avian type A/H5 in humans, in the context of pandemic preparedness.
