Study to Evaluate the Immunogenicity, Safety, and Tolerability of a Tick-Borne Encephalitis (TBE) Vaccine in Healthy Japanese Participants 1 Year of Age and Older

Seropositivity rate based on the immune response was determined by neutralization test (NT). Participants who achieved tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) NT titers >=1: 10 were considered as seropositive. Exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

LR:participant or legally acceptable representative/parent/legal guardian using an electronic diary (e-diary). LR included redness, swelling and pain at injection site. Redness and swelling were measured using measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit =0.5 centimeter(cm). Redness and swelling were graded as: for participants >=12 years of age, mild(greater than[>] 2.0 to 5.0 cm), moderate(>5.0 to 10.0 cm) and severe (>10.0 cm); for participants less than (<)12 years of age, mild(>0 to 2.0 cm), moderate(>2.0 to7.0 cm) and severe(>7.0 cm). Pain at the injection site was graded as: for participants >2 years of age, mild(does not interfere with activity), moderate(interferes with activity) and severe(prevents daily activity); for participants less than or equal to (<=)2 years of age, mild(hurts if gently touched) moderate(hurts if gently touched with crying) and severe(causes limitation of limb movement). Exact 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

Local reactions were collected by participant or legally acceptable representative/parent/legal guardian using an e-diary. Local reactions included redness, swelling and pain at the injection site. Redness and swelling were measured using measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit =0.5 cm. Redness and swelling were graded as: for participants >=12 years of age, mild (> 2.0 to 5.0 cm), moderate (>5.0 to 10.0 cm) and severe (>10.0 cm); for participants <12 years of age, mild (>0 to 2.0 cm), moderate (>2.0 to 7.0 cm) and severe (>7.0 cm). Pain at the injection site was graded as: for participants >2 years of age, mild (does not interfere with activity), moderate (interferes with activity) and severe (prevents daily activity); for participants <=2 years of age, mild (hurts if gently touched) moderate (hurts if gently touched with crying) and severe (causes limitation of limb movement). Exact 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether considered related to the study intervention. Exact 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

GMTs and associated 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated as the mean of the assay results on the natural logarithmic scale based on Student's t distribution and then exponentiating the results. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) value for NT was 5. Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5 × LLOQ.

GMFRs and the corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of fold rises and the corresponding CIs (based on the Student t distribution). The LLOQ value for NT was 5. Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5 × LLOQ.
