Brief Summary
The main aims of the study are to learn about side effects and a participant's immune response to Takeda's Dengue Vaccine when given twice within 3 months. Participants will receive 2 doses of their randomized treatment (vaccine or placebo). Children, teenagers and adults will receive one dose of either the vaccine or placebo on Day 1 and the second dose of either the vaccine or placebo 3 months later. Up to 4 blood samples will be taken throughout the study. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 6 times.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (11)
Number of Participants with Solicited Local (Injection Site) Adverse Events (AEs) by Severity Within 7 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1
Solicited local AEs at injection site are defined as injection site pain, injection site erythema, and injection site swelling. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
Within 7 days postvaccination at Day 1
Number of Participants with Solicited Local Injection Site AEs, by Severity Within 7 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90
Solicited local AEs at injection site are defined as injection site pain, injection site erythema, and injection site swelling. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
Within 7 days postvaccination at Day 90
Number of Participants with Solicited Systemic AEs by Severity Within 14 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. Solicited systemic AEs assessments for children \<6 years old include: drowsiness, irritability/fussiness, loss of appetite and fever, and those for children ≥ 6 years old/adolescent/adult include: headache, asthenia, malaise, myalgia and fever. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
Within 14 days postvaccination at Day 1
Number of Participants with Solicited Systemic AEs, by Severity Within 14 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. Solicited systemic AEs assessments for children \<6 years old include: drowsiness, irritability/fussiness, loss of appetite and fever, and those for children ≥ 6 years old/adolescent/adult include: headache, asthenia, malaise, myalgia and fever. The AEs will be graded by investigator as Grade 0: none, Grade 1: mild, Grade 2: moderate and Grade 3: severe.
Within 14 days postvaccination at Day 90
Percentage of Participants with Any Unsolicited AEs Within 28 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Within 28 days postvaccination at Day 1
Percentage of Participants with Any Unsolicited AEs Within 28 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Within 28 days postvaccination at Day 90
Percentage of Participants with an AE Leading to Participant Withdrawal from Trial
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)
Percentage of Participants with an AE Leading to TDV or Placebo Discontinuation.
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)
Percentage of Participants with a Medically-attended AE (MAAE)
MAAEs are defined as AEs leading to an unscheduled visit to or by a healthcare professional including visits to an emergency department, but not fulfilling seriousness criteria.
From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)
Percentage of Participants with a Serious Adverse Event (SAE)
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/ incapacity, leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a participant, is an important medical event.
From first vaccination on Day 1 through the end of trial (up to Day 270)
Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Neutralizing Antibodies by Microneutralization Test for Each of the 4 Dengue Virus Serotypes
GMTs of neutralizing antibodies will be measured by microneutralization test 50% \[MNT50\] for each of the 4 Dengue Serotypes for all participants. The 4 dengue virus serotypes are dengue virus (DENV)-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4.
Day 120 (Month 6)
