Overview
Brief Summary
The study is designed as a Phase III, double-blind, multicenter, randomized, active-controlled, parallel-group design in which two groups of participants will receive either SII-YFV or STAMARIL® - a licensed and WHO pre-qualified YFV. The study will start only after the approval from the applicable ethics committees and national regulatory agencies.
Detailed Description
There will be three scheduled visits during the study. A screening and vaccination visit (Day 0) followed by additional study visits on Day 28 and on Day 180 post-vaccination. Throughout the study, participants/parent/guardian will be encouraged to contact the study team if the participant is unwell and the study team will additionally maintain contact with study participants. The participant or parent/guardian will be contacted telephonically on Day 90 to enquire about participant's health and occurrence of any serious adverse events (SAEs). Active surveillance for vaccine reactogenicity will be conducted in reactogenicity cohort from the time of vaccination (Day 0) until Day 10 following vaccination. Unsolicited AE will be collected from all study participants until Day 28 post vaccination. SAEs will be collected from all participants throughout the study (to Day 180).

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Male or female volunteers aged ≥ 1 year
- •Healthy volunteers as determined by medical history and clinical examination
- •Participants willing to adhere to the protocol requirements and to provide informed consent for participants ≥ 18 years of age. For participants \< 18 years of age, parental/guardian ability and willingness to provide informed consent (as per local requirements/procedures) and additional informed assent from participants, as appropriate for participating community (i.e. participants at least 7 years of age in Kenya)
- •Intend to remain residing in study area throughout the study participation
- •Female participants of childbearing potential\* must have practiced adequate contraception\*\* and agree to continue adequate contraception till Day 28 post-vaccination.
- •Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to IP administration.
- •Be willing to avoid the use of traditional/herbal local medications and treatments for the duration of the study
Exclusion Criteria
- •Fever (\> 37.5°C) or any clinically significant acute infection at time of vaccination \[Temporary exclusion criteria - participants may be re-screened at least 48 hours after the last recorded fever\]
- •Use of systemic (oral or parenteral) antibiotics or antiviral agents within the past 7 days. \[Temporary exclusion criteria - participants may be re-screened at least 7 days after last dose of antibiotics or antiviral agents\]
- •Use of traditional/herbal local medications and treatments in the past 7 days \[Temporary exclusion criteria - participants may be re-screened at least 7 days after last consumption of traditional/herbal local medications and treatment\]
- •Previous history of laboratory confirmed infection with yellow fever and other flaviviruses e.g., dengue fever, tick-borne-encephalitis (TBE), Japanese encephalitis (JE), West Nile virus (WNV), zika virus, etc.
- •Previous vaccination against yellow fever, TBE, JE, or dengue fever.
- •Receipt of any vaccine within past 28 days or planned vaccination until completion of Day 28 visit
- •Known or suspected impairment of immunological function based on medical history and physical examination.
- •Presence of any systemic disorder (cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, hematological, endocrine, immunological, dermatological, neurological, cancer, or autoimmune disease) as determined by medical history and / or physical examination which would compromise the participant's health or is likely to result in nonconformance to the protocol
- •History of chronic administration (defined as more than 14 consecutive days) of immunosuppressant (\> 0.5 mg/kg/day of prednisolone or equivalent) or other immune modifying drugs including the use of glucocorticoids. The use of topical/inhaled/per nasal glucocorticoids will be permitted.
- •A known hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components (including gelatin, eggs, egg products, or chicken protein) or history of a life-threatening reaction to any past vaccine.
Arms & Interventions
SII-YFV
Live attenuated Yellow Fever Virus (17D-213 Strain) not less than 1000 IU/dose propagated in specific pathogen-free chick embryos Diluent: 0.5 mL of sterile water for injection
Intervention: SII-YFV
STAMARIL
Live attenuated Yellow Fever Virus (17D-204 Strain) not less than 1000 IU/dose produced in specified pathogen-free chick embryos Solvent: Sodium Chloride 2.0 mg; Water for injections up to 0.5 mL
Intervention: STAMARIL
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
YF neutralizing antibody (NAb) seroconversion rates
Time Frame: 28 days post vaccination
NI comparison for primary objective of the study will be based on seroconversion rate at 28 days post vaccination i.e. percentage of participants achieving seroconversion. Seroconversion is defined as a fourfold increase in neutralizing antibody from baseline.
Secondary Outcomes
- GMTs achieved with SII-YFV versus STAMARIL(28 days post vaccination)
