Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Rate of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events and Medically Attended Adverse Events Until Day 56 After First Vaccination
Rate of subjects with these types of AEs, comparison vs respective control vaccine stratified by age group: All study participants aged < 1 year: IC51 0.25mL vs. Prevnar; All study participants aged 1 year and above: IC51 0.25 mL or =.5 mL vs. Havrix.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) for JEV Neutralizing Antibodies
GMT for JEV neutralizing antibodies is presented per dose group rather than age group due to overlapping age groups. IC51 0.25 mL includes subjects aged 2 months to < 12 years; IC51 0.5 mL includes subjects aged ≥ 3 years to < 18 years.
Seroconversion Rate (SCR) at Days 0, 56 and at Month 7
Seroconversion was defined as a PRNT50 titer of at least 1:10. SCRs are presented per dose group rather than age group due to overlapping age groups. IC51 0.25 mL includes subjects aged 2 months to < 12 years; IC51 0.5 mL includes subjects aged ≥ 3 years to < 18 years.
Rate of Subjects With SAEs and Medically Attended AEs
Rate of subjects with SAEs and medically attended AEs; For this analysis IC51 vaccine recipients are displayed by age group rather than by dose group. This allows comparison of the safety profile of IC51 with the active control for the respective age group: Prevnar for study participants aged >= 2 months to <1 year and Havrix 720 for study participants aged >= 1 year.
Rate of Subjects With Solicited Local and Systemic AEs
Rate of subjects with solicited local and systemic AEs. Solicited AEs of local and systemic tolerability, i.e., reactions at the injection site or systemic reactions typical for vaccinations, were to be evaluated for 7 consecutive days after each vaccination (except after the HAVRIX®750 and Prevnar® injections at Month 7 [Visit 4]) and recorded in the subject diary. For this analysis IC51 vaccine recipients are displayed by age group rather than by dose group. This allows comparison of the safety profile of IC51 with the active control for the respective age group: Prevnar for study participants aged >= 2 months to <1 year and Havrix 720 for study participants aged >= 1 year.
Rate of Subjects With Unsolicited AEs up to Day 56 and up to Month 7
Rate of subjects with unsolicited AEs up to Day 56 and up to Month 7; For this analysis IC51 vaccine recipients are displayed by age group rather than by dose group. This allows comparison of the safety profile of IC51 with the active control for the respective age group: Prevnar for study participants aged >= 2 months to <1 year and Havrix 720 for study participants aged >= 1 year.
Rate of Subjects With Abnormal Laboratory Parameters
Rate of subjects with abnormal laboratory parameters clinically significant results are shown below

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary objective is to assess the systemic and local safety profile of purified inactivated Japanese Encephalitis Virus (JEV) vaccine IC51 administered in two doses in a 28 days interval up to Month 7 after the first IC51 vaccination in a pediatric population from endemic regions.
Detailed Description
Open-label, randomized, active controlled Phase 3 study in children aged ≥ 2 months to < 18 years. Subjects aged ≥ 2 months to < 12 months were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive IC51 (0.25 ml dose) or Prevnar® as a safety comparator. Children aged ≥ 12 months to < 3 years and ≥ 12 years to < 18 years were randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive IC51 (0.25 ml dose < 3 years, 0.5 ml ≥ 12 years) or HAVRIX®720 as safety comparator. For subjects aged ≥ 3 years to < 12 years, a dose finding run-in phase was performed. A total of 200 subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive either the 0.25 ml or the 0.5 ml dose of IC51, and the appropriate dose was determined based on an interim analysis. After this run-in phase, 300 further children in this age group were randomized 2:1 to receive either 0.5 ml of IC51 or HAVRIX®720. Immunogenicity was be studied in a subgroup of 30 children aged ≥ 2 months to < 12 months; 125 children aged ≥ 12 months to < 3 years and 140 children ≥ 12 years to < 18 years. For the age group of ≥ 3 to < 12 years immunogenicity was assessed in the 200 children enrolled during the dose-finding run-in phase.
