Main objective of the trial

To detect and measure soluble mediators from the early immune response in plasma.

Protection of trial subjects

•All vaccinated subjects were observed closely for at least 30 minutes following the administration of vaccines, with appropriate medical treatment readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic reaction. Vaccines/products were administered by qualified and trained personnel. Vaccines/placebos were administered only to eligible subjects that had no contraindications to any components of the vaccines/placebos. Subjects were followed-up for up to one month for adverse events after the last vaccination/placebos administration and during the entire study period for serious adverse events.
