Safety, immunogenicity, and lot-to-lot consistency of live attenuated varicella vaccine in 1-3 years old children: a double-blind, randomized phase III trial.

ABSTRACT: The study was to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and lot-to-lot consistency of live attenuated varicella vaccine in Chinese population aged 1-3 years. The double-blind, randomized phase III trial was conducted in Henan Province, China. In total, 1197 subjects were included in this study. Subjects were randomly assigned into four groups in a 2:2:2:1 ratio to receive one of the three lots of commercial scale (CS) vaccine or the licensed pilot scale (LPS) vaccine. Seroconversion rate and neutralizing antibody titers (NATb) were assessed at day 0 pre-vaccination and at day 30 post-vaccination. Safety data were recorded for 30 days post-vaccination. After vaccination, the geometric mean titers (GMTs) of the three CS groups were 25.04 (95% confidence interval [CI], 22.85 to 27.44), 24.47 (95
