BACKGROUND: The relative vaccine effectiveness (rVE) of high-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccines (QIV-HD) versus standard-dose quadrivalent influenza vaccines (QIV-SD) against hospitalizations and mortality in the general older population has not been evaluated in an individually randomized trial. Because of the large sample size required, such a trial will need to incorporate innovative, pragmatic elements. METHODS: We conducted a pragmatic, open-label, active-controlled, randomized feasibility trial in Danish citizens aged 65 to 79 years during the 2021–2022 influenza season. Participants were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive QIV-HD or QIV-SD. Randomization was integrated into routine vaccination practice, and the trial relied solely on nationwide administrative health registries for data collection. Outcomes consisted of a feasibility assessment and descriptive rVE estimates. RESULTS: We invited 34,000 persons to participate. A total of 12,477 randomly assigned participants were included in the final analyses. Mean (±SD) age was 71.7±3.9 years, and 5877 (47.1%) were women. Registry-based data collection was feasible, with complete follow-up data for 99.9% of participants. Baseline characteristics were comparable to those of the overall Danish population aged 65 to 79 years. The incidence of hospitalization for influenza or pneumonia was 10 (0.2%) of 6245 in the QIV-HD group and 28 (0.4%) of 6232 in the QIV-SD group (rVE, 64.4%; 95% confidence interval, 24.4 to 84.6). All-cause death occurred in 21 (0.3%) and 41 (0.7%) participants in the QIV-HD and QIV-SD groups, respectively (rVE, 48.9%; 95% confidence interval, 11.5 to 71.3). CONCLUSIONS: Conducting a pragmatic randomized trial of QIV-HD versus QIV-SD using existing infrastructure and registry-based data collection was feasible. The findings of lower incidence of hospitalization for influenza or pneumonia and all-cause mortality in the QIV-HD group compared with the QIV-SD group require replication in a future, fully powered trial.
