Immunogenicity and Safety of Three Tetravalent Formulations of Dengue Vaccine Candidates in Healthy Adults Aged 18 to 45 Years in the US

This study used 3 different formulations of tetravalent CYD dengue vaccine.

The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the neutralizing antibody response after 2 doses of two different formulations of tetravalent dengue vaccine administered at Month 0 and Month 6.

The secondary objectives were:

  • To evaluate the safety of the 3 formulations of tetravalent CYD dengue vaccine.
  • To describe the neutralizing antibody responses to each of the 3 vaccine formulations.
  • To describe vaccine viremia after the first and second dose of each of the 3 vaccine formulations in a subset of participants.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

All participants provided blood samples for immunogenicity assessments, while vaccine viremia was assessed in a subset of participants in each group.

Safety was assessed in all participants as follows: solicited adverse event (AE) prelisted in the diary card were collected for 7 days after vaccination for solicited injection site reactions and 14 days for solicited systemic reactions , unsolicited AEs were collected for 28 days after vaccination, and serious adverse event (SAE) information collected throughout the study up to 6 months after vaccination.
