The purpose of this study is to generate immunogenicity and safety data in preparation for efficacy studies in Latin America.

Primary Objectives:

* To describe the immune response to dengue viruses before and after each vaccination with CYD dengue vaccine. * To evaluate the safety of each vaccination with CYD dengue vaccine.

About this study

Participants in the Dengue Vaccine Group will receive 3 vaccinations with CYD Dengue vaccine. Participants in the Control Group will receive placebo vaccinations for the first 2 vaccinations, followed by tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis vaccine adsorbed (ADACEL®) (in Venezuela) or Meningococcal A+C vaccine (in Brazil) as a way of providing therapeutic benefit to the participants in the control group.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Seropositivity Against Each Serotype With the Parental Dengue Virus Strains Before and After Vaccinations With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

    Time frame: Before and 28 days after each injection

    Seropositivity was defined as participants achieving neutralizing antibody titers ≥10 (1/dil) against each serotype and was assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT).

  2. Percentage of Flavivirus Immune Participants With Seropositivity Against Each Serotype With the Parental Dengue Virus Strains Before and After Vaccinations With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

    Time frame: Before and 28 days after each injection

    Seropositivity was defined as participants achieving neutralizing antibody titers ≥10 (1/dil) against each serotype and was assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT). Flavivirus immune subjects at baseline are defined as those subjects with ≥10 (1/dil) for at least 1 serotype with the parental dengue virus strain or for the yellow fever titer.

  3. Percentage of Flavivirus Naïve Subjects With Seropositivity Against Each Serotype With the Parental Dengue Virus Strains Before and After Vaccinations With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

    Time frame: Before and 28 Days after each injection

    Seropositivity was defined as participants achieving neutralizing antibody titers ≥10 (1/dil) against each serotype and was assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT). Flavivirus naïve subjects at baseline are defined as those subjects with <10 (1/dil) for all serotypes with parental dengue virus strains and for yellow fever titer.

  4. Percentage of Subjects With Seropositivity Against At Least 1, 2, 3, or 4 Parental Dengue Virus Serotypes Before and After Vaccinations With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

    Time frame: Before and 28 days after each injection

    Seropositivity was defined as participants achieving neutralizing antibody titers ≥10 (1/dil) against each serotype and was assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT).

    Seropositivity was defined as participants achieving neutralizing antibody titers ≥10 (1/dil) against each serotype and was assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT). Flavivirus immune subjects at baseline are defined as those subjects with ≥10 (1/dil) for at least 1 serotype with the parental dengue virus strain or for the yellow fever titer.

    Time frame: Before and 28 days after each injection

    Geometric mean titers were assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT).

  9. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Flavivirus Immune Subjects Against Each Serotype With the Parental of Dengue Virus Strains Before and After Vaccinations With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

  10. Geometric Mean Titer Ratios (GMTRs) of Flavivirus naïve Subjects Against Each Serotype With the Parental of Dengue Virus Strains Before and After Vaccinations With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

    Time frame: Before and 28 days after each injection

    Geometric mean titers were assessed using the Dengue Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT). Flavivirus naïve subjects at baseline are defined as those subjects with <10 (1/dil) for all serotypes with parental dengue virus strains and for yellow fever titer.

  11. Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Injection-Site and Systemic Reactions Following Any and Each Vaccination With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

    Time frame: Day 0 up to Day 14 post each vaccination
