Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percentage of Participants With 1 or More Unsolicited AE : Vaccination 1
Up to 28 days post vaccination 1 (From Day 1 up to Day 28)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with study vaccine. An AE can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study vaccine or a protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the study drug or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening of a preexisting condition that is temporally associated with the study vaccine or protocol-specified procedure is also an AE. An unsolicited AE was an AE other than those specifically designated local or systemic. The percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 unsolicited AE was summarized.

Percentage of Participants With 1 or More Unsolicited AE : Vaccination 2
Up to 28 days post vaccination 2 (From Day 29 to Day 56)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with study vaccine. An AE can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study vaccine or a protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the study drug or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening of a preexisting condition that is temporally associated with the study vaccine or protocol-specified procedure is also an AE. An unsolicited AE was an AE other than those specifically designated local or systemic. The percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 unsolicited AE was summarized.

Percentage of Participants With 1 or More Solicited Systemic Adverse Event (AE) by Severity: Vaccination 1
Up to 14 days post vaccination 1 (From Day 1 up to Day 14)

A solicited AE was a predetermined specific event. The solicited systemic AEs for this study were the following: redness, swelling, or pain at site of injection, subjective and objective fever, chills, sweats, myalgia, arthralgia, fatigue, headache and gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and/or diarrhea). All AEs were assessed for severity by the investigator according to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA's) Guidance "Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials" and were classified into 4 categories: Mild (Grade 1), Moderate (Grade 2), Severe (Grade 3) and Potentially Life-Threatening (Grade 4). The percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 solicited systemic AE were summarized by grade.

Percentage of Participants With 1 or More Solicited Systemic AE by Severity: Vaccination 2
Up to 14 days post vaccination 2 (Day 29 up to Day 42)

A solicited AE was a predetermined specific event. The solicited systemic AEs for this study were the following: redness, swelling, or pain at site of injection, subjective and objective fever, chills, sweats, myalgia, arthralgia, fatigue, headache and gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and/or diarrhea). All AEs were assessed for severity by the investigator according to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA's) Guidance "Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials" and were classified into 4 categories: Mild (Grade 1), Moderate (Grade 2), Severe (Grade 3) and Potentially Life-Threatening (Grade 4). The percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 solicited systemic AE were summarized by grade.

Percentage of Participants With One or More Serious Adverse Event
Up to Day 56 (Day 1 up to Day 56)

An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the use of the study vaccine. An SAE is an AE that results in death, is life-threatening, results in a persistent or significant disability or incapacity, results in or prolongs an existing hospitalization, is a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or is another important medical event. The percentage of participants that experienced 1 or more SAEs was summarized.

Percentage of Participants With 1 or More Solicited Local Injection-site AE by Severity: Vaccination 1
Up to 14 days post vaccination 1 (Day 1 to Day 14)

A solicited AE was a predetermined specific event. The solicited local AEs for this study were the following: Local reactogenicity signs and symptoms include pain, erythema (redness), and induration (swelling). All AEs were assessed for severity by the investigator according to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA's) Guidance "Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials" and were classified into 4 categories: Mild (Grade 1), Moderate (Grade 2), Severe (Grade 3) and Potentially Life-Threatening (Grade 4). The percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 solicited local AE was summarized by grade.

Percentage of Participants With 1 or More Solicited Local Injection-site AE by Severity: Vaccination 2
Up to 14 days post vaccination 2 (Day 29 up to Day 42)

A solicited AE was a predetermined specific event. The solicited local AEs for this study were the following: Local reactogenicity signs and symptoms include pain, erythema (redness), and induration (swelling). All AEs were assessed for severity by the investigator according to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA's) Guidance "Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials" and were classified into 4 categories: Mild (Grade 1), Moderate (Grade 2), Severe (Grade 3) and Potentially Life-Threatening (Grade 4). The percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 solicited local AE was summarized by grade.

Percentage of Participants With Early Discontinuation of Vaccination
Up to Day 28

The percentage of participants that had vaccination discontinued for any reason was summarized.
