Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To compare between herpes simplex vaccine and placebo recipients the general safety of the vaccine by recording all the unsolicited adverse experiences and all serious adverse experiences

    During a 30-day period after each vaccination (AEs), during 7 months after study start (SAEs)

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • To compare between vaccine and placebo recipients the incidence and severity of the reactogenicity as measured by recording the local reactions and the general symptoms

    On the day of each vaccination and on the following 3 days

  • To compare between vaccine and placebo recipients the effect on the haematological and biochemical parameters in subjects from 20% of the centers in each country

    At day -90 to day -7, and at month 7 and month 13

  • To compare between vaccine and placebo recipients the effect on pre-existing herpes simplex virus infection by recording the frequency and severity of all herpes simplex clinical episodes

    Day 0 through month 19

  • To evaluate the incidence and the types of the serious adverse experiences in both groups

    Month 7 to month 19

  • To evaluate the humoral immune response to the vaccine by measuring the anti-gD2 antibodies in a subset of vaccine and placebo recipients from each of the serostatus groups

    Before vaccination, and one month and 7 months after vaccination

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
