NCT00442169

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single subcutaneous injection of ChimeriVax-WN02 vaccine is well tolerated, safe and induces protective antibodies against West Nile Disease. The study is divided into two parts; in the first part, a comparison of 3 dose levels of the vaccine will be made, with an inactive control. In the second part, the optimum dose level chosen after the first part will be given to older volunteers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Participants With Fourfold or Greater Post-vaccination Titers (Seroconversion).

    Seroconversion was defined as a fourfold or greater rise in titer between pre- and post-immunization samples

    Day 28 post-vaccination

  • Number of Viremic Participants Post-vaccination

    Viremic = detectable level of ≥ 10 plaque-forming units (PFU)/mL

    Day 21 post-vaccination

  • Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Reported As Related to Study Treatment in at Least 5% of Participants in Any Active Treatment Group Post-vaccination.

    Days 0 to 28 post-vaccination

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Geometric Mean Titers of Neutralizing Antibody Titers Pre- and Post-vaccination.

    Days 0, 14, and 28 post-vaccination

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Positive Immunoglobulin M (IgM) Response Post-vaccination in the As Treat Per-Protocol Population

    Days 14 and 28 post-vaccination
