Recombinant Influenza Vaccine Containing Different H3 Antigens in Healthy Adults 18 to 30 Years of Age

The primary objectives of the study are:

* To describe the safety profile of the different quadrivalent recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV) formulations.
* To describe the hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) and seroneutralization (SN) antibody responses against hemagglutinin (HA) (H1, H3, B/Victoria, and B/Yamagata) antigens present in the control vaccine in all groups at all timepoints.

The secondary objectives of the study are:

* To describe antigenic coverage in each group by assessing the HAI and SN antibody responses against a panel of H3 antigens (not present in any of the vaccine formulations).
* To describe HAI and SN antibody responses in each group against each of the H3 antigens.
* To compare the HAI and SN antibody responses for the groups with different H3 antigens to the control group.

Study duration per participant is approximately 90 days.

* Previous vaccination against influenza in the 2019-2020 season with any licensed influenza vaccine
* Receipt of immune globulins, blood or blood-derived products in the past 3 months
* Known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency; or receipt of immunosuppressive therapy, such as anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy, within the preceding 6 months; or long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy (prednisone or equivalent for more than 2 consecutive weeks within the past 3 months)
* Have known active or recently active (12 months) neoplastic disease or a history of any hematologic malignancy
* History of influenza infection during the 2018-2019 or 2019-2020 influenza season, confirmed by laboratory tests (including rapid tests)
* Self-reported or documented seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
* Known systemic hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components, or history of a life-threatening reaction to the vaccines used in the study or to a vaccine containing any of the same substances
* Thrombocytopenia or bleeding disorder, contraindicating intramuscular vaccination based on Investigator's judgement
* Deprived of freedom by an administrative or court order, or in an emergency setting, or hospitalized involuntarily
* Alcohol abuse or substance abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the study conduct or completion
* Chronic illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, is at a stage where it might interfere with study conduct or completion or predispose to complications associated with influenza infection
* Have any diagnosis, current or past, of chronic pulmonary diseases including asthma, cystic fibrosis and chronic pulmonary obstructive disease
* Have taken high-dose inhaled corticosteroids within 6 months prior to study vaccination
* Body Mass Index of 40 or higher
* History of cardiac disease such as congenital heart disease, heart failure, coronary artery disease (except isolated hypertension)

* Moderate or severe acute illness/infection (according to investigator judgment) on the day of vaccination or febrile illness (temperature ≥ 100.4 F \[≥ 38.0 C\]). A prospective participant should not be included in the study until the condition has resolved or the febrile event has subsided
* Identified as an Investigator or employee of the Investigator or study center with direct involvement in the proposed study, or identified as an immediate family member (ie, parent, spouse, natural or adopted child) of the Investigator or employee with direct involvement in the proposed study
* Personal or family history of Guillain-Barré syndrome
