| Primary end point(s): Immunogenicity: • Number of subjects with antibody response to the vaccine strain (A/Indonesia/05/2005) associated with protection 21 days after the booster vaccination defined as titer measured by Microneutralization (MN) test = 1:20.;Main Objective: -immune response to a non-adjuvanted H5N1 influenza vaccine in an adult population when administered according to a single prime-boost schedule; - persistence of H5N1 influenza antibodies after vaccination with a non-adjuvanted H5N1 influenza vaccine - safety and tolerability of a non-adjuvanted H5N1 influenza vaccine in an adult population when administered according to a single prime-boost schedule; Primary Immunogenicity: Number of subjects with antibody response to the vaccine strain (A/Indonesia/05/2005) associated with protection 21 days after the booster vaccination defined as titer measured by Microneutralization (MN) test = 1:20. Please note that the priming vaccination will contain H5N1 HA antigen strain A/Vietnam/1203/2004 in a non-adjuvanted formulation. The booster vaccination will contain H5N1 HA antigen strain A/Indonesia/05/2005 in a non-adjuvanted formulation. ;Secondary Objective: Immungenicity: •Number of subjects with antibody response associated with protection 21, 42, 180 and 360 days after the priming vaccination as measured by MN assay; •Antibody response 21, 42, 180 and 360 days after the priming vaccination and 21 days after the booster vaccination; •Fold increase of antibody response 21 and 42 days after the priming vaccination as compared to baseline, and 21 days after the booster vaccination as compared to prior to the booster vaccination; •Number of subjects: - demonstrating seroconversion - with antibody response associated with protection 180 days after the booster vaccination Safety: •Frequency and severity of systemic reactions and injection site reactions until 21 days after the priming and booster vaccination. •Number of subjects with fever, malaise or shiv | — |
