*In an open-label phase 3 study, participants ≥60 years of age received 1 dose of AREXVY and inactivated seasonal influenza vaccine (FLU QUADRIVALENT containing a combined total of 60 micrograms hemagglutinin [HA] per dose) at Month 0 (n=442) or 1 dose of FLU QUADRIVALENT at Month 0 followed by a dose of AREXVY at Month 1 (n=443). The observed safety events were balanced between coadministration and control groups.1
