PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month post-booster vaccination

Population: Seroprotection was assessed in the Per Protocol Analysis Set.

Anti-Diphtheria antibodies were assessed by a toxin neutralization test. Anti-Tetanus antibodies were assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Seroprotection was defined as the following: Anti-Diphtheria and Anti-Tetanus ≥ 0.1 IU/mL.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month post-booster vaccination

Population: Booster response rates were assessed in the Per Protocol Analysis Set.

Anti-Diphtheria antibodies were assessed by a toxin neutralization test. Anti-Tetanus antibodies were assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A booster response was defined as a 4-fold increase in pre- to post-vaccination antibody concentrations for subjects with pre-vaccination antibody concentrations ≤2.56 IU/mL for diphtheria and ≤ 2.7 IU/mL for tetanus. If the pre vaccination antibody concentrations were \> 2.56 IU/mL for diphtheria and \> 2.7 IU/mL for tetanus, then a 2-fold increase in response rate was defined as a booster response.

Population: Geometric mean concentrations were assessed in the Per Protocol Analysis Set.

Anti-Pertussis antibodies (Pertussis toxoid, Filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA), Pertactin, Fimbriae types 2 and 3) were assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Anti-pertussis GMCs further to Adacel vaccination was compared to an historical control group with Daptacel (NCT00255047 for pertussis toxoid and PMID 8538705 for FHA, Pertactin and Fimbriae) since Td Adsorbed Vaccine does not contain any pertussis antigens.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month post-booster vaccination

Population: Booster response rate was assessed in the Per protocol analysis set

Anti-Pertussis antibodies (Pertussis toxoid, Filamentous Hemagglutinin \[FHA\], Pertactin, Fimbriae (types 2 and 3) were assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Booster response is defined as a minimum rise in antibody concentration from pre- to post-vaccination. The minimum rise is at least 2 times if the pre-vaccination concentration is above the cutoff value, or at least 4 times if it is at or below the cutoff value. Anti-pertussis toxoid booster response rates further to Adacel vaccination was compared to an expected booster rates based on study Td506 (PMID 15933223) since Td Adsorbed Vaccine does not contain any pertussis antigens.
