ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryIncident Rates of Definite Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB) Disease, Not Associated With HIV-infection, Meeting the Case Definition 1
From Day 60 (i.e one month after Dose 2) up to Year 3: follow-up period for cases ends at the first occurrence of an event. For the non-cases: follow-up period ends at the date of the Month 36 visit or last contact date whichever comes first
The incidence rate of definite pulmonary TB disease (or 100 Person-years rate) was calculated as the number of subjects reporting at least one case (n) in a group, over the sum of follow-up period expressed in years (T) in the same group, and multiplied by 100. Case definition 1 = subject with clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB disease\*, with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) complex identified from sputum specimen, taken before initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF (Nucleic Acid Amplification Test to detect Mtb complex and resistance to rifampicin in sputum samples) and/or microbiological culture and confirmed Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-negative at the time of TB diagnosis. \*Clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB defined as subject presenting with 1 or more of the following symptoms: unexplained cough \> 2 weeks, unexplained fever \> 1 week, night sweats, unintentional weight loss, pleuritic chest pains, haemoptysis, fatigue or shortness of breath on exertion.
SecondaryIncident Rates of Definite Xpert MTB/Rif Positive Pulmonary TB Disease, Not Associated With HIV-infection, Meeting the Case Definition 2
From Day 60 (i.e one month after Dose 2) up to Year 3: follow-up period for cases ends at the first occurrence of an event. For the non-cases: follow-up period ends at the date of the Month 36 visit or last contact date whichever comes first
The incidence rate of definite Xpert MTB/Rif positive pulmonary TB disease, expressed in terms of 100 Person-years rate, was calculated as the number of subjects reporting at least one case (n) in a group over the sum of follow-up period expressed in years (T) in the same group, and multiplied by 100. Case definition 2 = a subject with clinical suspicion\* of pulmonary TB disease, with Mtb complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken before initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and confirmed HIV-negative at the time of TB diagnosis. \*Clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB was defined as a subject presenting with one or more of the following symptoms: unexplained cough \> 2 weeks, unexplained fever \> 1 week, night sweats, unintentional weight loss, pleuritic chest pains, haemoptysis, fatigue or shortness of breath on exertion.
SecondaryIncident Rates of Definite Pulmonary TB Disease, Not Associated With HIV-infection Meeting the Case Definition 3
From Day 60 (i.e one month after Dose 2) up to Year 3: follow-up period for cases ends at the first occurrence of an event. For the non-cases: follow-up period ends at the date of the Month 36 visit or last contact date whichever comes first
The incidence rate of definite pulmonary TB disease (or 100 Person-years rate) was calculated as the number of subjects reporting at least one case (n) in a group, over the sum of follow-up period expressed in years (T) in the same group, and multiplied by 100. Case definition 3 = a subject with clinical suspicion\* of pulmonary TB disease, with Mtb complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken up to four weeks after initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and/or microbiological culture and confirmed HIV-negative at the time of TB diagnosis.\*Clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB was defined as a subject presenting with one or more of the following symptoms: unexplained cough \> 2 weeks, unexplained fever \> 1 week, night sweats, unintentional weight loss, pleuritic chest pains, haemoptysis, fatigue or shortness of breath on exertion.
SecondaryIncident Rates of Microbiological Pulmonary TB Disease, Meeting the Case Definition 4
From Day 60 (i.e one month after Dose 2) up to Year 3: follow-up period for cases ends at the first occurrence of an event. For the non-cases: follow-up period ends at the date of the Month 36 visit or last contact date whichever comes first
The incidence rate of Microbiological pulmonary TB disease (or 100 Person-years rate) was calculated as the number of subjects reporting at least one case (n) in a group, over the sum of follow-up period expressed in years (T) in the same group, and multiplied by 100. Case definition 4 = a subject with clinical suspicion\* of pulmonary TB disease, with Mtb complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken up to four weeks after initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and/or microbiological culture.\*Clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB was defined as a subject presenting with one or more of the following symptoms: unexplained cough \> 2 weeks, unexplained fever \> 1 week, night sweats, unintentional weight loss, pleuritic chest pains, haemoptysis, fatigue or shortness of breath on exertion.
SecondaryIncidence Rates of Clinical TB Disease, Meeting the Case Definition 5
From Day 60 (i.e one month after Dose 2) up to Year 3: follow-up period for cases ends at the first occurrence of an event. For the non-cases: follow-up period ends at the date of the Month 36 visit or last contact date whichever comes first
The incidence rate of Clinical TB disease (or 100 Person-years rate) was calculated as the number of subjects reporting at least one case (n) in a group, over the sum of follow-up period expressed in years (T) in the same group, and multiplied by 100. Case definition 5 = a subject for whom a clinician has diagnosed TB disease and has decided to treat the patient with TB treatment.
SecondaryNumber of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs).From Day 0 up to Year 3 (during the entire study period)
Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.
SecondaryNumber of Subjects With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs).During the 30-day follow-up period following vaccination, across doses (i.e. day of vaccination and 29 subsequent days after each vaccine dose)
An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.
SecondaryNumber of Subjects With Any Solicited Local AEs in the Safety and Immune Sub-cohortDuring the 7-day follow-up period (i.e. day of vaccination and 6 subsequent days) after each vaccine dose
Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Any redness/swelling symptom was scored as injection site redness/swelling with a diameter equal or larger than (≥) 20 millimeters (mm).
SecondaryNumber of Subjects With Any Solicited General AEs in the Safety and Immune Sub-cohortDuring the 7-day follow-up period (i.e.: day of vaccination and 6 subsequent days) after each vaccine dose
Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, fever \[defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)\], respiratory symptoms (including cough, blood in sputum, purulent sputum, shortness of breath or difficulties breathing, chest wall pain) headache, malaise and myalgia. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade and relation to vaccination.
SecondaryNumber of Subjects With Any Potential Immune-mediated Diseases (pIMDs)From Day 0 to 6 months post-dose 2 (i.e. at Month 7)
Potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs) are a subset of AEs that include autoimmune diseases and other inflammatory and/or neurologic disorders of interest which may or may not have an autoimmune aetiology.
