Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percentage of Participants With Varicella Zoster Virus Antibody Levels ≥5 Glycoprotein Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (gpELISA) Units/mL
6 weeks (43 days) after vaccination 1

The varicella zoster virus (VZV) antibody response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with VZV antibody titer ≥5 glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (gpELISA) units/mL among participants who were seronegative to VZV (titers \<1.25 gpELISA units/mL) at baseline.

Geometric Mean Titer of VZV Antibodies
6 weeks (43 days) after vaccination 1

The geometric mean titer (GMT) of VZV antibodies after vaccination 1 was assessed. Antibody titers were measured with gpELISA.

Secondary Endpoints
Percentage of Participants With Fever (≥102.2 °F Oral Equivalent)
Up to 42 days after vaccination 1; Up to 42 days after vaccination 2
Percentage of Participants With Systemic Measles-like, Rubella-like, Varicella-like, Zoster-like Rash, and Mumps-like Symptoms After Vaccination 1 (Incidence > 0%)
Up to 42 days after vaccination 1
Percentage of Participants With Systemic Measles-like, Rubella-like, Varicella-like, Zoster-like Rash, and Mumps-like Symptoms After Vaccination 2 (Incidence > 0%)
Up to 42 days after vaccination 2
