Having received any vaccinations or planned vaccinations with a killed vaccine within 14 days prior or after trial vaccination 23. Chronic systemic administration (defined as more than 14 days) of > 5 mg prednisone (or equivalent)/day or any other immune-modifying drugs during a period starting from three months prior to administration of the vaccine and ending at last physical trial visit (Visit 5) 24. Post organ transplant subjects whether or not receiving chronic immunosuppressive therapy 25. Administration or planned administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products during a period starting from three months prior to administration of the vaccine and ending at last physical trial visit (Visit 5) 26. Use of any investigational or non-registered drug or vaccine other than the trial vaccine within 30 days preceding the first dose of the trial vaccine or planned administration of such a drug during the trial period (with the day of the FU call being considered the last day of the trial period). 27.

Primary | ELISA GMT | Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) based on vaccinia-specific Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Titers below the detection limit are included with a value of '1' | Week 6 | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events | Occurrence, relationship to the trial vaccine and intensity of any Serious Adverse Event (SAE). | up to 32 weeks | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) | Occurrence, relationship to the trial vaccine and intensity of any Adverse Event of Special Interest (AESI). AESIs were defined as any cardiac symptoms and ECG changes determined to be clinically significant or cardiac enzyme troponin I elevated above 2 x the Upper Limit of Normal | up to 32 weeks | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Related Grade >=3 Adverse Events | Occurrence of any Grade >=3 Adverse Events related to the trial vaccine. | within 29 days after vaccination | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Unsolicited Adverse Events | Occurrence, relationship to the trial vaccine and intensity of unsolicited treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs). | within 29 days after vaccination | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Solicited Local Averse Events | Occurrence and intensity of solicited local AEs (redness, swelling, induration, pruritus and pain) during the 8-day period (day of vaccination and the following 7 days) after any vaccination.

A response to the vaccine was defined as either the appearance of a positive signal for participants without a positive signal at Baseline or an increase by a factor of at least 1.7 of the SFU/1 x 10E6 PBMC compared to the Baseline SFU/1 x 10E6 PBMC for participants with a positive signal at Baseline. | within 8 weeks | |
Secondary | Percentage of Responders by ELISPOT | Responder rate measured by vaccinia specific ELISPOT. A participant was defined as a responder to the vaccine determined by ELISPOT if the participant had at least 1 post-baseline visit determined to be a response. A response to the vaccine was defined as either the appearance of a positive signal for participants without a positive signal at Baseline or an increase by a factor of at least 1.7 of the SFU/1 x 10E6 PBMC compared to the Baseline SFU/1 x 10E6 PBMC for participants with a positive signal at Baseline. | within 8 weeks | |
