Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study of a Booster Dose of IMOJEV® One Year After Primary Immunization in Healthy Children in South Korea (NCT NCT01900444)

NCT ID: NCT01900444

Last Updated: 2022-03-28

Results Overview

JE virus neutralizing antibodies were measured using a 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50). Seroprotection status for antibody levels against JE virus before and after IMOJEV vaccination was defined as antibody titers ≥ 10 (1/dilution).
