Arms & Interventions

All subjects

Experimental

Assessment of seropersistence of TBE antibodies at yearly intervals from approximately 3 years (38 months) to 10 years (118 months) after the first booster vaccination (in Study 700401), as well as antibody response to a second booster vaccination with either FSME-IMMUN 0.25 mL Junior or FSME-IMMUN 0.5 mL, depending on the subject´s age. Timing of the second booster vaccination will depend on the level of serum TBE antibodies detected at the defined assessment time points. Subjects who are not protected against TBE for an entire further season (NT titer <= 20 and/or ELISA value <=126 VIE U/mL) will be invited to receive the second booster vaccination at either the 40, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, or 120-month time point.

Intervention: FSME-IMMUN 0.25 mL Junior (1.2 µg TBE antigen/0.25 mL) or FSME-IMMUN 0.5 mL (2.4µg TBE antigen/0.5 mL) (Biological)
