Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary Outcome Measures: Rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA) geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) compared between the study groups at day 14 using the rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT).Timepoint: day 14

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Safety Endpoints: 1.AEs will be collected for 7 days following vaccination or until time of next vaccination (whichever occurs sooner). 2.Medically attended AEs and SAEs will be collected from the time the subject signs the informed consent until he/she stops study participation (day 42) Timepoint: 42 days
