E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
1- To assess immunogenicity of the purified inactivated Japanese Encephalitis (JE) vaccine IC51 using the Seroconversion rates (SCRs) and Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) at Day 56 in a pediatric population from regions where JE is not endemic |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1- To assess the safety profile of IC51 in a pediatric population from regions where JE is not endemic
2- To assess differences in the immunogenicity and safety profile of IC51 in subjects depending on age groups, dose groups, TBE vaccination history and travel to JE endemic areas |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1- Male or female healthy children and adolescents aged ≥ 2 months to < 18 years at the time of first vaccination
2- Written informed consent by the subject’s legal representative(s), according to local requirements, and written informed assent of the subject, if applicable
3- Female subjects: either no childbearing potential or negative pregnancy test (pregnancy test to be performed in female subjects after onset of menarche). For females after menarche willingness to practice a reliable method of contraception as specified in Section 6.4. is required
4- The subject is planning to travel to an area where JE is endemic after completion of the vaccination schedule.
Exposure to JE should be avoided until 1 week after the second IC51 dose and subjects should return from travel to JE endemic areas before the Month 7 visit. The planned travel to JE endemic areas should not interfere with the study visits and can take place between Day 35 to 56 or between Day 56 to Month 7. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1- Clinical manifestation or history of any Flavivirus disease
2- Vaccination against JE (except within this protocol), Yellow fever, West Nile virus and Dengue at any time prior or during the study
3- Active or passive immunization within 1 week before and 1 week after each IC51 vaccination.
4- Use of any other investigational or non-registered drug or vaccine in addition to the study vaccine during the study period or within 30 days prior to the first vaccination at Visit 1
5- Immunodeficiency including post-organ-translpantation or a family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.
6- History of autoimmune disease.
7- Administration of chronic (defined as more than 14 days) immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within 4 weeks prior to vaccination at Visit 1 and during the study (For corticosteroids, this will mean
prednisone, or equivalent, ≥ 0.05 mg/kg/day. Topical and inhaled steroids are allowed).
8- Acute febrile infection at each visit during which the subject receives a vaccination
9- History of hypersensitivity reactions to vaccines
10- Known HIV, HBV or HCV infection |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
1- Co-primary endpoints: SCRs as defined by percentage of subjects with PRNT50 titers of ≥ 1:10 at Day 56 and GMTs for JEV neutralizing antibodies measured using a validated Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT) at Day 56 |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
after the end of the study
|
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
SCRs and GMTs at Day 56 and Month 7 stratified according to dose groups, age groups, Tick-borne Encephalitis (TBE) vaccination history, travel to JE endemic areas, travel to JE endemic areas before Day 56, as well as travel to JE endemic areas after Day 56.
