A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled (Older Adults, Aged >60 to 79 Years) and Open-Label (Adults, Aged 45 to 60 Years), Multicenter Trial to Investigate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a Dengue Tetravalent Vaccine (TDV) Administered Subcutaneously to Adults and Older Adults With or Without Comorbidities in Endemic Areas for Dengue

Brief Summary
Dengue fever is caused by an infection with the dengue virus. Vaccination with Dengue Tetravalent Vaccine (TDV) can help prevent dengue fever. Researchers have seen that dengue fever now also happens more often in elderly persons. The main aim of this study is to learn more about the side effects of TDV in adult (45 - 60 years) and elderly (60 - 79 years) persons and about TDV's ability to create an immune response in adult and elderly persons. Another aim is to learn about the side effects of TDV in adult and elderly persons in endemic countries who have one or more additional medical conditions (called comorbidities) such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension or a chronic kidney condition. In this study, participants will receive 2 vaccinations with TDV (the second 3 months after the first). During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 5 times.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (12)
Number of Participants with Solicited Local (Injection Site) Adverse Events (AEs) Within 7 Days Post Vaccination at Day 1
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered an investigational medical product (IMP); it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with IMP administration. Solicited local AEs are injection site pain/tenderness, erythema, and swelling at the vaccination site. All solicited AEs at the injection site will be considered related to the study vaccine administration.
Within 7 days post-vaccination at Day 1
Number of Participants with Solicited Local (Injection Site) Adverse Events (AEs) Within 7 Days Post Vaccination at Day 90
Solicited local AEs are injection site pain/tenderness, erythema, and swelling at the vaccination site. All solicited AEs at the injection site will be considered related to the study vaccine administration.

Percentage of Participants with a Serious Adverse Event (SAE)
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)
