|
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product.
An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study vaccine.
An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product.
A SAE is any AE that results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product.
|
Serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported up to Week 336 for Group 1 and 2 and up to Week 96 for the other groups (Group 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8). Other adverse events (AEs) were reported for the main study period up to Week 96 for all the groups

Time Frame: Week 16, 28, 52, 78, and 96
|
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 BAMA employs flow-cytometric-based technology that also utilizes antibody and antigen interactions to test for the presence of specific antibodies in an unknown sample with the added advantage of multiplexing the antigens of interest.
Positive and negative control standards were run with each assay to ensure specificity.
The positivity threshold was determined per antigen based on the plus (+) 3 standard deviation (SD) on the non-specific background.
Sample values had to be greater than or equal to this value and had to be 3-fold over the baseline values with a minimum median fluorescent intensities (MFI) value of 100.
Samples taken after W48 from PPI set, who missed 4th vaccine or deviated schedule were excluded.
As planned, the data reported for this endpoint at specified time points only for each reported category.
