This is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase II study in healthy males and non-pregnant females, 18-64 years of age. This clinical trial is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of a pre-pandemic 2017 monovalent inactivated influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine (2017 H7N9 IIV) manufactured by Seqirus Inc (Seqirus) administered at different dosages (3.75 mcg, 7.5 mcg and 15 mcg of hemagglutinin (HA) per dose) given with MF59(R) adjuvant manufactured by Seqirus Inc., or without adjuvant (15 mcg of HA per dose). Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) diluent manufactured by Patheon Manufacturing Services LLC will be used to achieve certain targeted doses. Approximately 371 subjects who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria will be randomized into one of 4 study groups. The study will be conducted at up to 7 Vaccine and Treatment Unit (VTEU) sites and will last approximately 17 months, with subject participation duration of approximately 13 months. The Primary Objectives of the study are: 1) To assess the safety and reactogenicity following receipt of two doses of 2017 H7N9 IIV administered intramuscularly (IM) at different dosages approximately 21 days apart given with or without MF59(R) adjuvant; 2) To assess the serum hemagglutinin inhibition (HAI) and Neutralizing (Neut) antibody responses approximately 21 days following receipt of two doses of 2017 H7N9 IIV administered IM at different dosages approximately 21 days apart with or without MF59(R) adjuvant.~The secondary Objectives are: 1) To assess all unsolicited non-serious Adverse Events (AEs) following receipt of two doses of a 2017 H7N9 IIV administered IM at different dosages approximately 21 days apart with or without MF59(R) adjuvant; 2) To assess medically-attended adverse events (MAAEs) including new-onset chronic medical conditions (NOCMCs), potentially immune-mediated medical conditions (PIMMCs), and all Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) following receipt of two doses of a 2017 H7N9 IIV administered IM at different dosages approximately 21 days apart with or without MF59(R) adjuvant; 3) To assess the serum HAI and Neut antibody responses approximately 7 and 21 days following receipt of a single dose, and approximately 7 days following receipt of two doses of 2017 H7N9 IIV administered IM at different dosages approximately 21 days apart with or without MF59(R) adjuvant.
