    • Number of Subjects With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs). [ Time Frame: During the 31-day (Day 0-Day 30) follow-up period after primary vaccination ]
      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 Day 0 until 6 months following the last primary dose ]
      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.
