- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Humoral Immune Response With Respect to Components of the Investigational Vaccine in Terms of Neutralizing Antibody Titers Against RSV- Serotype A At pre-vaccination (Day 1), 30 days post-Dose 1 (Day 31), on the day of second vaccination (Day 61) and 30 days post-Dose 2 (Day 91) Serological assays for the determination of functional antibodies against RSV-A were performed by neutralization assay. Anti RSV-A neutralizing antibody titers are given as geometric mean titers (GMTs) and expressed as Estimated Dose: serum dilution giving a 60% reduction of the signal compared to a control without serum (ED60). The cut-off of the assay is 18 ED60.
Humoral Immune Response With Respect to Components of the Investigational Vaccine in Terms of RSVPreF3-specific Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Antibody Concentrations At pre-vaccination (Day 1), 30 days post-Dose 1 (Day 31), on the day of second vaccination (Day 61) and 30 days post-Dose 2 (Day 91) The detection and the quantification of total IgG antibodies directed against RSVPreF3 in human serum samples are based on an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Anti RSVPreF3 antibody concentration is given in geometric mean concentration (GMC) and is expressed in ELISA Laboratory Units per milliliter (ELU/mL). The assay cut-off is 25 ELU/mL.
Number of Subjects With Any SAEs, up the End of Follow-up Study Period (Month 14) From Day 1 up to the end of follow-up period (Month 14) A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization or results in disability/incapacity.
Number of Subjects Reporting pIMDs up to the End of Follow-up Study Period (Month 14) From Day 1 up to the end of follow-up period (Month 14) pIMDs are a subset of AEs that include autoimmune diseases and other inflammatory and/or neurologic disorders of interest which may or may not have an autoimmune etiology.
Number of Subjects With Respiratory Tract Infection (RTI) Episodes Reported During RTI Surveillance During the RSV seasons from Day 1 to Month 14 The number of RTI cases is provided by group. Reported categories are "RSV+ RTI" (= RTI episode tested as RSV positive by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) on nasal/throat swab collected at assessment visit) and "RSV- RTI" (= RTI episode tested as RSV negative by qRT-PCR on nasal/throat swab collected at assessment visit).
