Brief summary
The purpose of this survey is to assess the safety freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine (Schwarz FF-8 strain/TO-336 strain) (freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine Takeda) in terms of the occurrence of unknown/known adverse drug reactions and factors that may influence the safety of vaccinees after the first vaccination.
Detailed description
This survey was designed to assess the safety of live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine (Schwarz FF-8 strain/TO-336 strain) (freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine Takeda) in terms of the occurrence of unknown/known adverse drug reactions and factors that may influence the safety of vaccinees after the first vaccination. Freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine (Schwarz FF-8 strain/TO-336 strain) is dissolved in 0.7 mL of accompanying reconstitution fluid (water for injection \[Japanese Pharmacopoeia\]), wherein a 0.5-mL portion is typically administered subcutaneously as a single dose. In addition, freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine (Schwarz FF-8 strain/TO-336 strain) should be used in accordance with the Regulations for Vaccination and the Guidelines for Routine Vaccination.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
-Vaccinees who meet both of the following conditions \[1\] and \[2\]: 1. Vaccinees who have no prior history of either measles or rubella vaccination and who received freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine (Schwarz FF-8 strain/TO-336 strain) as the initial vaccination. 2. Vaccinees whose guardians are able to participate in a questionnaire survey on the health status of vaccinees after vaccination with freeze-dried live attenuated measles and rubella combined vaccine (Schwarz FF-8 strain/TO-336 strain).

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Drug Reactions | Baseline up to Day 28 | Serious adverse drug reactions are defined as serious adverse events (SAE) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Frequency of adverse events and factors that may influence safety were not to be assessed as endpoints of this study and were registered as endpoints by mistake. Instead, adverse drug reactions were assessed as endpoint. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Participants Reporting One or More Adverse Drug Reactions | Baseline up to Day 28 | Adverse drug reactions are defined as adverse events (AE) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. AE are defined as any unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product reported from the first dose of study drug to the last dose of study drug. |

Outcome results
Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Drug Reactions
Serious adverse drug reactions are defined as serious adverse events (SAE) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Frequency of adverse events and factors that may influence safety were not to be assessed as endpoints of this study and were registered as endpoints by mistake. Instead, adverse drug reactions were assessed as endpoint.
Time frame: Baseline up to Day 28
Population: Safety analysis set included all participants who received at least one dose of study vaccination.
