“Enrolment into the first study has been completed and in total, GSK will conduct 16 clinical trials of its pandemic vaccine in over 9,000 individuals across Europe, Canada and the US,” Breuer said.
The GSK vaccines use the antigen of the recently isolated pandemic (H1N1) 2009 influenza strain and also contain GSK’s proprietary adjuvant system AS03.
