Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Percentage of Participants with Immediate Reactions Occurring Within 30 Minutes After Any Vaccination

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The percentage of participants with immediate reactions occurring within 30 minutes after any vaccination will be reported.

Time frame
Up to approximately 30 minutes post vaccination
2

Percentage of Participants with a Solicited Injection-site Adverse Event

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The solicited injection-site AEs assessed are redness/erythema, swelling, and tenderness/pain. The percentage of participants with a solicited injection-site adverse event will be reported.

Time frame
Up to approximately 7 days post vaccination
3

Percentage of Participants with a Solicited Systemic Adverse Event

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The solicited systemic AEs assessed are muscle pain/myalgia, joint pain/arthralgia, headache, and tiredness/fatigue. The percentage of participants with a solicited systemic adverse event will be reported.

Time frame
Up to approximately 7 days post vaccination
4

Percentage of Participants With at Least 1 Unsolicited Adverse Event

An unsolicited AE is an AE that was not solicited using a vaccination report card (VRC) and that is communicated by a participant (or their legally acceptable representative, if applicable). Unsolicited AEs include serious and nonserious AEs. The percentage of participants with at least 1 unsolicited adverse event will be reported.

Time frame
Up to approximately 28 days post vaccination

Secondary outcomes

1

Geometric Mean Titer of Serotype-specific Opsonophagocytic Activity (OPA)

Opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) for serotypes in V132 formulations will be determined using a multiplexed opsonophagocytic assay (MOPA). Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) of serotype-specific OPA will be reported.

Time frame
Up to approximately 28 days post vaccination
2

Geometric Mean Fold Rise from Baseline of Serotype-specific OPA

The Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) from baseline in serotype-specific OPA GMTs for serotypes in V132 formulations will be determined using a multiplexed opsonophagocytic assay (MOPA). GMFR is defined as the geometric mean of the ratio of concentration at Day 28 post vaccination divided by concentration at baseline.

Time frame
Baseline (pre-vaccination) and 28 days post vaccination
