Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Safety: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of rVSV∆G-LASV-GPC vaccine
Proportion of participants with Grade 3 or higher reactogenicity (ie, solicited AEs) during a 14-day follow-up period after IP administration Proportion of participants with Grade 2 or higher IP-related unsolicited AEs, including safety laboratory parameters, within 28 days of IP administration Proportion of participants with Grade 2 or higher unsolicited AEs, including safety laboratory parameters, within 28 days of IP administration Proportion of participants with IP-related SAEs throughout the study period Proportion of participants with AEs of Special Interest (AESI) post-vaccination throughout the study period

Secondary Outcome Measures

Immunogenicity: To determine LASV-GPC-specific antibody responses induced by rVSV∆G-LASV-GPC vaccine
Magnitude and duration of viral RNA in plasma by PCR Magnitude and duration of rVSV∆G-LASV-GPC vaccine viremia by culture Magnitude and duration of viral RNA in urine and saliva by PCR Magnitude and duration of rVSV∆G-LASV-GPC vaccine shedding in urine and saliva by culture
