Brief summary

VLA15-221 is a Phase 2 study, which will be conducted in two parts: Main Study Phase (Part A) and Booster Phase (Part B). The study will compare the safety and immunogenicity of two different primary immunization schedules applying three (Month 0-2-6) or two (Month 0- 6) vaccinations. Within the study, 600 healthy subjects aged 5-65 years will be included. Subjects with a history of Lyme borreliosis (previous infection with Borrelia) as well as Borrelia naïve subjects will be enrolled. Study duration per subject will be a maximum of 50 months per subject.

Detailed description

VLA15-221 is a randomized, observer-blind, placebo controlled, multicenter Phase 2 study, which is set up in two parts: Main Study Phase (Part A) and Booster Phase (Part B). In Part A 600 subjects aged 5-65 years will be enrolled 1:1:1 into three groups: Group 1 will be vaccinated with VLA15 at Month 0-2-6, Group 2 will be vaccinated with VLA15 at Month 0-6 and with placebo at Month 2 and Group 3 will be vaccinated with placebo at Month 0-2-6. In Part B all eligible subjects will receive booster injections with VLA15 or placebo at Month 18, 30 and 42.

Percentage of Participants With Solicited Local and Solicited Systemic Adverse Events (AEs) Within 7 Days After Vaccination 1

Participants or their legal guardians were required to record any solicited local and systemic adverse events in the electronic diary. Solicited symptoms were pre-defined symptoms which were collected via an electronic diary. Solicited local AEs included pain, tenderness, erythema (redness), swelling and induration (hardening). Solicited systemic AEs included headache, muscle pain, joint pain, nausea, vomiting, fatigue and fever. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.

Time frame: From Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination 1 at Month 0

Population: Safety Analysis Set (SAS) included all participants who entered into the study and received at least one vaccination. Participants were analyzed according to the actual treatment received. All participants reported under 'Overall Number of Participants Analyzed' contributed data to the table but may not have evaluable data for every row. Here, Number Analyzed signifies participants evaluable for specified rows.

Percentage of Participants With Solicited Local and Solicited Systemic AEs Within 7 Days After Any Vaccination During the Main Study Phase

Participants or their legal guardians were required to record any solicited local and systemic adverse events in the electronic diary. Solicited symptoms were pre-defined symptoms which were collected via an electronic diary. Solicited local AEs included pain, tenderness, erythema (redness), swelling and induration (hardening). Solicited systemic AEs included headache, muscle pain, joint pain, nausea, vomiting, fatigue and fever. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.

Time frame: From Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination 1, 2 or 3 at Month 0, 2 and 6 respectively

Population: Safety Analysis Set (SAS) included all participants who entered into the study and received at least one vaccination. Participants were analyzed according to the actual treatment received. All participants reported under 'Overall Number of Participants Analyzed' contributed data to the table and for each specified row.

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs)

An AESI (serious or non-serious) was one of scientific and medical concern specific to the sponsor's product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and rapid communication by the investigator to the sponsor were appropriate. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals were calculated according to Altman method.

Time frame: From Day 1 of vaccination up to Day 208 (Month 7)
