Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants Who Seroconverted to the Respective Homologous JE Vaccine Strain, 28 Days After Completion of the Primary Immunization Schedule With One of 3 Doses of ChimeriVax™-JE Vaccine or A Placebo
Day 11 and Day 30 post-vaccination

Antibodies were measured using 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50) for measurement of neutralizing antibodies against homologous ChimeriVax™-JE and wild type JE virus strains. Seroconversion was defined as a titer ≥ 1:20 at post vaccination timepoints for subjects who were seronegative at baseline, or ≥ 4 fold rise from baseline.

Number of Participants Who Seroconverted to Wild Type JE Virus Strains After Primary Immunization Schedule With One of 3 Doses of ChimeriVax™-JE Vaccine or a Placebo
Day 30 post-vaccination

Antibodies were measured using 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50) for measurement of neutralizing antibodies against homologous ChimeriVax™-JE and wild type JE virus strains. Seroconversion was defined as a titer ≥ 1:20 at post vaccination time points for subjects who were seronegative at baseline, or ≥ 4 fold rise from baseline.

Number of Participants Reporting Solicited Local Injection Site and Treatment Related Adverse Events Post Vaccination With One of 3 Doses of ChimeriVax™-JE Vaccine or Placebo
Day 0 (post-vaccination) up to Day 30 post-vaccination

Local Injection Site Adverse Events (AEs): Pain, Erythema, Reaction, Hemorrhage, Induration, Paresthesia. Treatment Related Systemic AEs: Fever, Chills, Malaise, Fatigue, Headache, Myalgia, Arthralgia, Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Rash. Other AEs as reported spontaneously.

Number of Participants With Seroconversion to Homologous ChimeriVax-JE Virus Strain After a Single Dose of Chimerivax™-JE and Placebo Dose
Day 28 post-vaccination

Assay by 50% Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT50) Seroconversion: PRNT50 ≥ 10 and PRNT50 ≥ 20. Assessed in all participants who received ChimeriVax™-JE vaccine on Day 0 and Day 28.

Number of Participants Reporting Injection Site Treatment Emergent Adverse Events Post-Vaccination With ChimeriVax™-JE or Placebo at Day 0 and Day 28, and Following a Booster of ChimeriVax™-JE at Month 6 in a Subset of the Study Population.
Days 0 to 28 post-vaccination

Injection Site Treatment Emergent Adverse Events: Pain, Reaction Not Otherwise Specified (NOS), Erythema, Swelling, Bruising, Nodule, Pigmentation Changes, Pruritus were assessed in all participants for up to 28 days post-Vaccination.

Frequently asked questions about Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus

What is Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus?

Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus is an investigational vaccine candidate being developed by Sanofi for the prevention of Japanese encephalitis, a viral infection of the brain. It is designed to stimulate an immune response using a weakened form of the virus. It is in Phase 2 clinical development.

What is Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus used for?

Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus is being studied for the prevention of Japanese encephalitis, a mosquito-borne viral disease that can cause encephalitis, or inflammation of the brain. The clinical program has enrolled healthy adult volunteers in Australia to evaluate the vaccine candidate.

Who makes Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus?

Sanofi, which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SNY, is the developer of Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus. The company has sponsored the Phase 2 clinical studies of the vaccine candidate in Australia.

What phase is Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus in?

Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational vaccine candidate and has not been approved by the FDA. The completed Phase 2 trials were conducted in Australia in healthy adults aged 18 years and older.

What clinical trials is Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus in?

Two completed Phase 2 trials have evaluated Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus: NCT00981630, titled Study of Live Attenuated ChimeriVax-Japanese Encephalitis Vaccine, which enrolled 128 participants, and NCT00981175, titled A Study of ChimeriVax-JE Live Attenuated Vaccine in Healthy Adults, which enrolled 202 participants. Both were conducted in Australia.

Is Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus the same as ChimeriVax diluent?

Yes, Live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus is also known as ChimeriVax diluent. The ChimeriVax name appears in the trial titles for the Phase 2 studies, including ChimeriVax-Japanese Encephalitis Vaccine and ChimeriVax-JE Live Attenuated Vaccine, so searches using either name refer to the same Sanofi vaccine candidate.
