- Number of Subjects With Solicited Local Symptoms [ Time Frame: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period ]Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = Significant pain at rest, pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling with a maximum diameter greater than 100 millimeters (mm).
- Number of Subjects With Solicited General Symptoms [ Time Frame: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period ]Assessed solicited general symptoms (symp.) were headache, fever [defined as oral temperature (temp.) equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)], fatigue, gastrointestinal (Gastro.) symptoms [nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain]. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade and relationship. Grade 3 (G3) symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever > 39.5 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.
- Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: During the 30-Day (Days 0-29) post-vaccination period ]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.
- Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: From vaccination at Day 0, up to Day 30 post-vaccination ]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.
- Titres of RSV-A Neutralizing Antibodies [ Time Frame: At Day 0 pre-vaccination ]RSV-A neutralizing antibody titres, expressed as Geometric Mean Titres (GMTs). Seropositive subjects were defined as subjects whose antibody titre was greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off 8 serum dilution that induced 60 % inhibition in plaque forming units (ED60).
- Titres of RSV-A Neutralizing Antibodies [ Time Frame: At Day 30 post-vaccination ]RSV-A neutralizing antibody titres, expressed as Geometric Mean Titres (GMTs). Seropositive subjects were defined as subjects whose antibody titre was greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off 8 serum dilution that induced 60 % inhibition in plaque forming units (ED60).
- Titres of RSV-A Neutralizing Antibodies [ Time Frame: At Day 60 post-vaccination ]RSV-A neutralizing antibody titres, expressed as Geometric Mean Titres (GMTs), were defined as any titre greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off 8 serum dilution inducing 60 % inhibition in plaque forming units (ED60).
- Titres of RSV-A Neutralizing Antibodies [ Time Frame: At Day 90 post-vaccination ]RSV-A neutralizing antibody titres, expressed as Geometric Mean Titres (GMTs), were defined as any titre greater than or equal to (≥) the cut-off 8 serum dilution inducing 60 % inhibition in plaque forming units (ED60).
- Concentrations of Palivizumab Competing Antibodies (PCA) [ Time Frame: At Day 0 pre-vaccination ]Palivizumab competing antibody concentrations, expressed as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs). The assay cut-off was greater than or equal to 3.34 micrograms per millilitre (µg/mL).
- Concentrations of PCA [ Time Frame: At Day 30 post-vaccination ]PCA concentrations, expressed as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs). The assay cut-off was greater than or equal to 3.34 micrograms per millilitre (µg/mL).
- Concentrations of PCA [ Time Frame: At Day 60 post-vaccination ]PCA concentrations, expressed as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs).The assay cut-off was greater than or equal to 3.34 micrograms per millilitre (µg/mL).
- Concentrations of PCA [ Time Frame: At Day 90 post-vaccination ]PCA concentrations, expressed as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs). The assay cut-off was greater than or equal to 3.34 micrograms per millilitre (µg/mL).
- Number of Subjects With SAEs [ Time Frame: Up to study end at Day 360 ]SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life-threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.
