Protection of vaccinated mice against mortality from the homologous virus was highly significant ( p < 0.001), which demonstrates the vaccine's potency.

Owing to small treatment groups in this experiment, the difference in mortality between mice receiving huN1 DNA (4/8) versus saline (1/7) was not statistically significant ( p = 0.18), but the difference between huN1 DNA and empty vector treatment (0/7) approached significance ( p = 0.051).
The difference in mortality between immunized and control groups upon heterologous PR8-avN1 challenge approached but did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.055).
