The study aims to evaluate the non-inferiority of the immune response induced by the
Dengue 1,2,3,4 (attenuated) vaccine in participants aged 60 - 79 years old (elderly)
compared to participants aged 40 to 59 years on Day 42 + 7 days after vaccination. The
primary analysis will include the immunogenicity cohort (n=460 participants, allocated
1:1). The primary outcome is the proportion of neutralizing antibody seroconversion
measured by plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50), for each dengue serotype, of
participants aged 60 - 79 years (elderly) compared with participants aged 40 to 59 years
(adults), with or without previous exposure to dengue, on Day 42 + 7 days after
vaccination. The primary safety outcome will be the frequency and intensity of solicited
and unsolicited adverse reactions from vaccination to Day 22 post-vaccination among
participants aged 60 - 79 years and in participants aged 40 to 59 years, with or without
prior exposure to dengue. The study will last one year in order to assess the duration of
the immune response and serious adverse events (SAE) and events of special interest
(SIAE). Throughout the study period, there will be surveillance of suspected and
confirmed cases of dengue, chikungunya fever and Zika virus fever. Therefore, if the null
hypothesis is rejected, the immunogenicity and safety results of immunobridging will be
used to expand the use of Dengue 1,2,3,4 (attenuated) for the age group of 60 - 79 years
old.
