Clinical Trial Summary

In the Main Study Phase a total of 246 subjects were randomized 2:2:1 into three treatment groups to receive either VLA15 with Alum (lower or higher dose) or Placebo. Main Study Phase vaccinations were administered as intramuscular injections on Day 1, Day 57 and Day 180.

In the Booster Phase subjects from the higher dose group who completed their primary immunization schedule according to protocol will be randomized 2:1 to receive an additional higher dose VLA15 vaccination or Placebo at Month 18.

Study duration in the Main Study Phase per subject is a maximum of 20 months. Overall study Duration is estimated to be 22 months.

Study duration per subject in the Booster Phase is a maximum of approximately 13 months.

Study duration per subject in the Main Study Phase and Booster Phase together is estimated to be a maximum of approximately 33 months.

Overall study duration (i.e., First-Subject-In to Last-Subject Out/ end of Booster Phase) is estimated to be approximately 37 months.

Description:

This is a randomized, observer-blind (subject, Sponsor and investigator/site staff involved in Clinical Evaluation of subjects are blinded), Placebo controlled, multicenter Phase 2 study.

In Main Study Phase a total of 246 healthy subjects,aged 18 to 65 years, were randomized 2:2:1 to receive either VLA15 with Alum (lower or higher doser Placebo. Main Study Phase vaccinations were administered as intramuscular injections on Day 1 (Month 0), Day 57 (Month 2) and Day 180 (Month 6).

Subjects from the higher dose group who completed their primary immunization schedule according to protocol, will be randomized 2:1 to receive an additional injection of the higher dose VLA15 with Alum or Placebo in a Booster Phase. The additional vaccination is administered as intramuscular injection approximately 18 months after the first immunization.

Secondary	SCR for IgG Against Each OspA Serotype (ST1 to ST6) Stratified by Age Group in Booster PP Population: Group 50 - 65 Years	SCR for IgG against each OspA serotype ST1 to ST6, determined by ELISA, at Day 29 (Month 1), 57 (Month 2), 85 (Month 3), 180 (Month 6), 208 (Month 7), 365 (Month 12), 545 (Month 18), Month 19, Month 24, and Month 30 stratified by age group: 50 - 65 years. Seroconversion for ELISA was defined as 1) for participants that are seronegative at Visit 1 (baseline): a change from seronegative at Visit 1 to seropositive at a certain time point or 2) for participants that are seropositive at Visit 1 (baseline): >=4-fold rise in IgG antibody titer from Visit 1. SCR was reported as percentage of participants. The outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for Booster PP population from Day 29 to Day 545 of main study phase and from day of vaccination in Month 18 up to Month 30 of booster phase.	Day 29 (Month 1), Day 57 (Month 2), Day 85 (Month 3), Day 180 (Month 6), Day 208 (Month 7), Day 365 (Month 12), Day 545 (Month 18), Month 19, Month 24, and Month 30
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With SAEs During the Entire Booster Phase	SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; required inpatient prolonged existing hospitalization; life-threatening; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 30 (Approximately maximum up to 12 Months)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Related SAEs During the Entire Booster Phase	SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; required inpatient prolonged existing hospitalization; life-threatening; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect. Relatedness to study vaccine was assessed by the investigator. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 30 (Approximately maximum up to 12 Months)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Adverse Event of Special Interest (AESIs) During the Entire Booster Phase	AESIs were defined as serious or non-serious AEs which were of scientific and medical concern specific to the investigational product. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 30 (Approximately maximum up to 12 Months)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Related AESIs During the Entire Booster Phase	AESIs were defined as serious or non-serious AEs which were of scientific and medical concern specific to the investigational product. Relatedness to study vaccine was assessed by the investigator. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 30 (Approximately maximum up to 12 Months)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Unsolicited AEs During the Booster Phase up to Month 19	An unsolicited AE includes any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant temporally associated with the use of investigational product, whether or not related to investigational product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up (more than 6 days after vaccination) for solicited symptoms. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 19 (Approximately for 1 Month)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Related Unsolicited AEs During the Booster Phase up to Month 19	An unsolicited AE included any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant temporally associated with the use of investigational product, whether or not related to investigational product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up (more than 6 days after vaccination) for solicited symptoms. Relatedness to study vaccine was assessed by the investigator. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 19 (Approximately for 1 Month)
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Solicited Local and Solicited Systemic AEs Within 7 Days After Booster Vaccination	Solicited local AEs included pain, tenderness, induration (hardening), swelling and erythema (redness). Solicited systemic AEs included headache, myalgia (muscle pain), arthralgia (joint pain), fever (oral body temperature), flu-like symptoms, nausea, vomiting and fatigue. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.	Within 7 days after booster vaccination
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With SAEs, AESIs, Solicited and Unsolicited AEs Stratified by Age Group During the Booster Phase	Percentage of participants with SAEs, AESIs, solicited and unsolicited AEs during booster phase stratified by age group 18-49 years and 50-65 years were reported. SAE: any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; required inpatient prolonged existing hospitalization; life-threatening; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect. AESI: any AEs of scientific/medical concern specific to study vaccine; Solicited AE: predefined reactions at injection site or systemic reactions after each vaccination. Unsolicited AE: any untoward medical occurrence in participant associated with use of study vaccine, whether or not related to study vaccine, reported in addition to solicited and any solicited symptom with onset outside specified period of follow-up.	SAEs and AESIs: From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 30 (Approximately maximum up to 12 Months); AEs: From Day of vaccination in booster phase (Month 18) up to Month 19 (Approximately for 1 Month)
