Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety/reactogenicity of the ExPEC4V clinical trial material (CTM) after the first vaccination and to evaluate the immunogenicity of the ExPEC4V CTM, as measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), 14 days after the first vaccination (on Day 15).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (8)

• Percentage of Participants With Solicited Local Adverse Events (AEs) After First Vaccination

  An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study vaccine. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. Solicited local AEs were precisely defined local events that participants were specifically asked about and which were noted by participants in the diary. Solicited local AEs included injection-site pain/tenderness, injection-site erythema and injection-site swelling/induration.

  14 days after first vaccination (Day 1 to Day 15)

• Percentage of Participants With Solicited Systemic Adverse Events After First Vaccination

  An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study vaccine. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. Solicited systemic AEs were precisely defined systemic events that participants were specifically asked about and which were noted by participants in the diary. Solicited systemic AEs included fatigue, headache, nausea, myalgia and fever.

  14 days after first vaccination (Day 1 to Day 15)

• Percentage of Participants With Unsolicited Adverse Events After First Vaccination

  An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study vaccine. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. Unsolicited AEs were precisely defined events that participants were not asked about and which were not noted by participants in the diary.

  29 days after first vaccination (Day 1 to Day 30)

• Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) After First Vaccination

  An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study vaccine. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An SAE is any AE that results in: death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product.

  Up to Day 180

• Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) for Serotypes O1A, O2, O6A and O25B at Day 1

  Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody levels elicited by the vaccine against each of the 4 vaccine serotypes (serotype O1A, O2, O6A and O25B) were measured by ELISA. GMTs for serotypes O1A, O2, O6A and O25B at Day 1 were reported.

  Day 1

• ELISA GMTs for Serotypes O1A, O2, O6A and O25B at Day 15

  IgG antibody levels elicited by the vaccine against each of the 4 vaccine serotypes (serotype O1A, O2, O6A and O25B) were measured by ELISA. GMTs for serotypes O1A, O2, O6A and O25B at Day 15 were reported.

  Day 15

• ELISA Geometric Mean Ratio (GMR) for Serotypes O1A, O2, O6A and O25B at Day 15/Day 1

  IgG antibody levels elicited by the vaccine against each of the 4 vaccine serotypes (serotype O1A, O2, O6A and O25B) were measured by ELISA. GMR for serotypes O1A, O2, O6A and O25B (Day 15/Day 1) was reported.

  Day 15/Day 1

• Percentage of Participants With a 2-fold and 4-fold Increase From Baseline in Serum Antibody Titers (ELISA) at Day 15

  Percentage of participants with a 2-fold and 4-fold increase from baseline in serum antibody titers as measured by ELISA at Day 15 were reported.

  Day 15

• Participant with known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to ExPEC4V or its excipients
• Participant with abnormal function of the immune system resulting from: a) clinical conditions (for example, autoimmune disease or immunodeficiency); b) chronic or recurrent use of systemic corticosteroids; c) administration of antineoplastic and immunomodulating agents or radiotherapy
• Participant has a history of neoplastic disease (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix that was successfully treated) within the past 1 year or a history of any hematological malignancy
• Participant with history of acute polyneuropathy (for example, Guillain-Barre syndrome)
