Title of the Trial: 
Immunogenicity and Safety of a Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine Administered 
Concomitantly or Sequentially with Cervarix® in Healthy Female Subjects Aged 
9 to 14 Years in Mexico 
Development Phase: 
Phase IIIb 
Coordinating Investigator: 
, 
; 
 
 
 
Trial Centers: 
This is a multi-center trial conducted in 3 sites in Mexico. 
Investigators and sites will be listed in the “List of Investigators and Centers 
Involved in the Trial” document. 
Planned Trial Period: 
Q4 2016 to Q3 2019 
Trial Design and Methodology: Phase IIIb, randomized, open-label, multicenter study in 480 female subjects aged 
9 to 14 years in Mexico. 
Subjects have been randomized in a 1:1 ratio into one of the 2 following groups to 
receive: 
• 
Group 1 (N=240): 3 doses of CYD dengue vaccine and 2 doses of Cervarix® 
(Human Papillomavirus Bivalent [Types 16 and 18] Vaccine, Recombinant; 
GlaxoSmithKline) concomitantly to the 2 first doses of CYD dengue vaccine 
• 
Group 2 (N=240): 3 doses of CYD dengue vaccine and 2 doses of Cervarix 
sequentially (ie, one month before) to the 2 first doses of CYD dengue 
vaccine 
For both vaccines, each dose is to be administered 6 months apart. 
 
New clinical data based on the results of exploratory analyses showed that the 
efficacy and safety profile of the CYD dengue vaccine was different between 
subjects previously naturally exposed to the dengue virus prior to vaccination 
(referred hereafter as “exposed subjects” or seropositive) and subjects never 
exposed to the dengue virus prior to vaccination (referred hereafter as 
“unexposed subjects” or seronegative). In light of these results, the Independent 
Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) involved in the safety data review of the 
CYD dengue vaccine clinical development program concluded, in an ad hoc 
meeting held on 3-4 November 2017,that there is a strong evidence that the CYD 
dengue vaccine protects exposed subjects from symptomatic, hospitalized and 
severe dengue while, in unexposed subjects, the vaccine confers limited short term 
benefit against symptomatic dengue and induces an increased risk of hospitalized 
or severe dengue in the long term (findings are based on follow-up of dengue 
unexposed subjects having received 3 CYD dengue vaccine doses). 
Given the IDMC recommendations, Sanofi Pasteur has suspended all vaccinations 
in the CYD71 study until the baseline dengue serostatus is known for all study

participants. To determine the baseline serostatus of the subjects, the PRNT assay 
will be used on blood samples provided by the subjects before the first 
vaccination.  
As per IDMC recommendations, the following changes will be applied to this 
trial: 
• 
All vaccinated subjects will be informed about their baseline dengue 
serostatus, and what it means, as soon as possible based on blood samples 
provided by the subjects before the first vaccination.  
• 
All subjects will be asked about their willingness to continue participating in 
this study. Subject’s consent will be formalized by signing an amended Assent 
Form (subject’s parent[s]/legally acceptable representative[s] will sign an 
amended Informed Consent Form). 
• 
Subjects identified as “dengue unexposed” (seronegative) at baseline will not 
receive further CYD dengue vaccine doses. They will only be able to continue 
in the study for safety follow-up at 6 months post last dengue vaccine dose, if 
they consent to, and will have timely access to appropriate care in the event of 
suspected dengue, for 10 years from the date of last dengue vaccination 
whether they remains in the study or not. 
• 
Subjects identified as “dengue exposed” subjects (seropositive) at baseline 
who are eligible to continue dengue vaccination in the study will be 
additionally asked to consent for further CYD dengue vaccine injection. 
Subjects that consent to receive the third and last dose of CYD dengue 
vaccine will complete the study as it was initially planned. Subjects that 
consent to remain in the study but prefer not to receive the last injection will 
be able to continue in the study for safety follow-up at 6 months post last 
dengue vaccine dose. 
Based on these recommendations, the first amendment to the original protocol 
version 1.0 has been issued.

subjects is provided in the table below

† In the original protocol v1.0, subjects from Group 1 were expected to attend V07 at M12 and V08 at 
M13. Likewise, subjects from Group 2 were expect to attend V07 at M13 and V08 at M14. 
At the time of Protocol Amendment 1, procedures planned at V07 (most subjects) or V08 (2 subjects 
from Group 1) were on hold, depending on subjects’ progression. Time for the approval of Protocol 
Amendment 1 by the competent authorities and completion of the associated logistic tasks will result 
into a delay of study activities (approximately 6 months), and thus to an extension of study duration 
for dengue exposed subjects. 
‡ This includes seronegative subjects that consent to remain in the study and seropositive subjects that 
consent to stay in the study but prefer not to receive the next dose of CYD dengue vaccine 
 
For the 2 vaccines, immediate adverse events (AEs) observed to occur within 
30 min post-injection will be collected. Solicited reactions will be collected after 
each injection: between Days 0–7 for injection site reactions and between Days 0–
14 for systemic reactions. Unsolicited adverse events (AEs) will be collected 
between Days 0-28 after each injection. 
Serious adverse events (SAEs) will be reported throughout the study (from 
inclusion until 6 months after the last injection). 
Serious and non-serious adverse events of special interest (AESIs) will be 
collected in defined time windows according to the type of AESI. 
In addition, hospitalized suspected dengue cases occurring at any time in the trial 
will be collected and documented. 
Subjects will be followed for safety from the first injection up to 6 months after 
the last injection. 
Independent Data Monitoring 
Committee 
 
An IDMC will be involved in the regular review of hospitalized virologically-
confirmed dengue cases (VCD), including assessment of severity. Additionally, 
any related SAE or death will be promptly reviewed by the IDMC. 
Early Safety Data Review: 
This trial will not include an early review of safety data. However, it may be 
interrupted at any time if new data about the investigational product become 
available, and/or on advice of the Sponsor, the Independent Ethics Committees 
(IECs)/Institutional Review Boards (IRBs), or the governing regulatory authorities

hospitalization (ie, hospitalized suspected dengue case) will be reported during 
the entire study. 
Depending on the item, these could include: nature (Medical Dictionary for 
Regulatory Activities [MedDRA] preferred term), time of onset, duration, 
number of days of occurrence, grade of severity, relationship to vaccine, action 
taken, whether the event/reaction led to early termination from the study, 
seriousness, or outcome. 
Hospitalized suspected dengue case is defined as an acute febrile illness with 
diagnosis of dengue requiring hospitalization (with bed attribution). In such 
cases, 1 unplanned acute blood sample (within the first 5 days after fever onset) 
will be collected for virological confirmation of dengue disease. A hospitalized 
suspected dengue case will be considered VCD if there is a detection of wild type 
(WT) dengue virus by dengue non-structural protein (NS) 1 antigen (Ag) 
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and/or dengue reverse 
transcriptase-polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCRs) (at the Global Clinical 
Immunology [GCI] or GCI designated laboratory).  
Note: Acute blood sample for all hospitalized suspected dengue cases should be 
collected within the pre-specified timeframe as described above. If this cannot be 
accomplished, this sample should still be obtained as soon as possible thereafter, 
for IDMC severity assessment. 
Planned Sample Size: 
A total of 480 subjects are planned to be enrolled, in a 1:1 randomization ratio: 
• 
Group 1 (concomitant administration): 240 subjects  
• 
Group 2 (sequential administration): 240 subjects  
As per Protocol Amendment 1, only dengue-exposed subjects prior to the first 
injection with CYD dengue vaccine will be eligible to complete dengue 
vaccination schedule. At the time Protocol Amendment 1 is being prepared, the 
number of dengue exposed subjects per group is not known.

Schedule of Study Procedures: 
At the time of Protocol Amendment 1, all subjects have completed V05 
(Group 1) or V06 (Group 2). Dengue unexposed subjects will not receive further 
dengue vaccine injections. If a subject and the subject’s parents/ legally 
acceptable representative consent to continue participating in the study, they will 
sign the Assent Form (AF) / Informed Consent Form (ICF). All unexposed 
subjects that consent to continue participating in the study will be contacted by 
phone for a safety follow-up 6 months after the last injection. They will not 
attend any further study visits (except the unscheduled visit and/or the next 
schedule visit planned to sign the ICF/AF).  
For dengue exposed subjects who consent to continue in the study and to receive 
the next CYD dengue vaccine injection, study procedures will proceed as planned 
in the original protocol. 
Visits/phone call : 
Subjects will have 6 (Group 1) or 8 (Group 2) visits. Subjects will be contacted 
by phone 7 days after each injection and 2 months after blood samples during the 
6-month period after each vaccination. The last phone call will be for the 6-
month follow-up after the last injection of CYD dengue vaccine. 
An unscheduled visit or phone call will take place during the study pause in order 
to communicate the new data on the CYD dengue vaccine to each subject. This 
visit will be before the next visit initially planned (V07 for most subjects; V08 for 
2 subjects). Dengue serostatus at baseline may be communicated to the subjects, 
if available, at the time of the unscheduled visit. If not available at the time of the 
unscheduled visit, the dengue serostatus at baseline will be communicated at the 
next planned visit. 
Vaccination: 
See Table S1. 
Group 1: Cervarix and CYD dengue vaccine (concomitantly) at D0 and M6, and 
CYD dengue vaccine (alone) at M12 
Group 2: Cervarix (alone) at D0 and M6, and CYD dengue vaccine (alone) at 
D0+28D (M1), M6+28D (M7), and M12+28D (M13) 
 
Blood sampling: 
Subjects will provide: 
• 
4 mL, for CYD dengue vaccine immunogenicity assessments by dengue 
neutralizing Abs (4 mL) before the first vaccination (at D0 in Group 1, and 
M1 in Group 2) and 28 days after each vaccination with the CYD dengue 
vaccine  
• 
2 mL, for HPV immunogenicity assessments by cLIA before the first 
vaccination (at D0) and 28 days after the each vaccination with Cervarix  
See Table S 1 for details on timings. 
Additional blood samples that may be collected at any time throughout the study 
period, regardless of the subject’s dengue serostatus: 
• 
In the event of a hospitalized suspected dengue case (3 mL approximately), 
within the first 5 days after fever onset (or as soon as possible if not within 
the 5 days), for virological confirmation by NS1 Ag ELISA, and/or WT 
dengue RT-PCR. 
• 
In the event of SAEs (including AESIs).  
• 
To assess AEs that may be indicative of viscerotropic or neurotropic disease 
(see Guidelines for Assessing Viscerotropic and Neurotropic AE).

Duration of Participation in 
the Trial: 
The expected duration of each subject’s participation in the trial is approximately 
18 months for Group 1 and 19 months for Group 2, including a safety follow-up 
period of 6 months after the third injection of CYD dengue vaccine. 
Time for the approval of Protocol Amendment 1 by the competent authorities and 
completion of the associated logistic tasks will result in a delay of study activities 
(approximately 6 months), and thus, in an extension of study duration for dengue 
exposed subjects. The duration of dengue non-exposed subjects’ participation 
will be shorter.

Statistical Methods: 
In a general way, non-inferiority testing will be performed on dengue-exposed 
subjects. The tests will be done only if the number of evaluable subjects provides 
a global power of at least 80% for the co-primary objectives and secondary 
objective. In case the global power is insufficient to perform non-inferiority 
testing, only descriptive analyses will be performed. 
Only descriptive analyses will be conducted in unexposed subjects and in the 
overall population.  
Non-inferiority on Cervarix 
For co-primary endpoints, a non-inferiority testing approach will be used to 
compare GMTs of the 2 antigens (HPV-16 and HPV-18) 28 days after the last 
dose of Cervarix, for each antigen “i” based on the following individual 
hypotheses: 
 
with:  
i, antigen (HPV-16 and HPV-18) 
δ non-inferiority limit is set at 2, ie, 0.301 (=log10[2]), for each antigen “i” 
Non-inferiority for antigen i will be demonstrated if the lower bound of the 2-
sided 95% confidence interval (CI) is greater than –δ (α=2.5% one-sided). 
Additionally, for secondary endpoint, a non-inferiority testing approach will be 
used to compare seroconversion rates of the 2 antigens (HPV-16 and HPV-18). 
The individual tested hypotheses for the antigen “i” will be as follows: 
 
Where the non-inferiority limit δ is set at 5% for each antigen. 
Non-inferiority for antigen “i” will be demonstrated if the lower bound of the 2-
sided 95% CI is greater than -δ. 
The non-inferiority test will be performed using the 95% 2-sided CI of the 
difference between Group 1 and Group 2 for seroconversion rates and of the 
differences of the means of the log10 transformed post-vaccination 
concentrations/titers for GMTs (α=2.5% one-sided). The 95% CI will be 
calculated based on the Wilson score method without continuity correction as 
quoted by Newcombe for seroconversion rates and using the normal 
approximation of the log10 transformed post-vaccination titers for GMTs. 
Global hypotheses for non-inferiority on Cervarix response 
For both primary and secondary objectives, the global hypotheses are: 
H0G: Non inferiority of Cervarix co-administered with CYD dengue vaccine 
versus Cervarix administered alone is not demonstrated for at least one antigen. 
H1G: Non-inferiority of Cervarix co-administered with CYD dengue vaccine 
versus Cervarix administered alone is demonstrated for all the antigens.

Non-inferiority on CYD dengue vaccine 
For co-primary endpoints, a non-inferiority testing approach will be used to 
compare GMTs 28 days after the third injection of CYD dengue vaccine, between 
Group 1 and Group 2 for each serotypes “i” based on the following individual 
hypotheses: 
 
with:  
i, serotypes in {1, 2, 3, 4} 
δ non-inferiority limit is set at 2, ie, 0.301 (=log10[2]), for each serotype “i” 
Non-inferiority for serotype i will be demonstrated if the lower bound of the 2-
sided 95% CI is greater than -δ. 
The statistical methodology will be based on the use of the 2-sided 95% CI of the 
differences of the means of the log10 transformed post-vaccination titers between 
Group 1 and Group 2. The CI for differences will be calculated using normal 
approximation of log-transformed titers. 
Global hypotheses for non-inferiority on CYD response 
 
Overall, non-inferiority among the groups will be demonstrated if, for each 
antigen of Cervarix and each serotype of CYD dengue vaccine, the two-sided 
95% CIs lie above -δ. 
The per-protocol analysis set will be used for the main analysis and is to be 
confirmed using the FAS. 
Calculation of Sample Size: 
A total of 480 subjects will be enrolled: 240 subjects in each group. 
The reference standard deviations (SD) considered for Cervarix are 0.4 for both 
HPV-16 and HPV-18. 
The reference seroconversion rates for Cervarix were set to 99% for both 
antigens. 
The reference SD considered are the following for CYD dengue vaccine: 0.9 for 
serotype 1, 0.7 for serotypes 2 and 3 and 0.5 for serotype 4 (based on CYD13 and 
CYD15 efficacy studies conducted in subjects aged 9 to 16 years in Latin 
American countries). 
Considering a potential attrition rate of 15%, it was initially planned that such 
sample size would provide 204 evaluable subjects in the per protocol population 
per group. This will give, for the co-primary objectives, a global power of 90.2% 
and for secondary objectives (in terms of Cervarix seroconversion) a power of 
91.8%. 
This sample size will also provide a 95% probability of observing an AE that has 
a true incidence of 1.2% in each group. 
Following Protocol Amendment 1, the number of evaluable subjects may be 
difficult to achieve (considering only exposed/seropositive subjects at baseline to 
be included in the Per-Protocol populations). Thus the non-inferiority testing will 
be done only if the number of evaluable subjects provides a global power of at 
least 80% for the co-primary objectives and secondary objective ie, if the number 
of evaluable subjects per group is at least 163 per group for the co-primary

objectives and 168 per group for the secondary objective. 
Interim analysis: 
Two planned statistical analyses will be performed: 
An interim statistical analysis of the data obtained up to Day 28 post third CYD 
dengue vaccination might be performed once data are available and a database 
lock has been conducted.  
A final analysis will be performed once the 6 month safety data have been 
collected and the final database lock has occurred. 
No statistical adjustment is necessary because there will be no repeated analyses 
of the primary objective (as the test will be performed at the time of the first 
analysis).

Introduction 
1.1 
Background 
The study will assess the safety and immunogenicity of the CYD dengue vaccine when 
administered concomitantly or sequentially with Cervarix® (Human Papillomavirus Bivalent 
[Types 16 and 18] Vaccine, Recombinant; GlaxoSmithKline) 
Dengue Disease 
Dengue is the most common mosquito-borne viral disease in humans, found in tropical and sub-
tropical regions around the world. In recent years, transmission has increased predominantly in 
urban and semi urban areas and has become a major international public health concern. Dengue 
virus is essentially transmitted by mosquitoe bites primarily by the female Aedes aegypti, but the 
global spread of dengue due to A albopictus is increasing. There are four closely related, but 
antigenically distinct, dengue virus serotypes (1, 2, 3, 4) of the genus Flavivirus (FV) that cause 
dengue. All four serotypes can cause the full spectrum of disease from subclinical infection to a 
mild self-limiting disease, dengue fever and severe disease that may be fatal, due to dengue 
hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (DHF/DSS) (1).  
The clinical presentation of acute dengue is non-specific and is characterized by biphasic fever, 
headache, pain in various parts of the body, prostration, rash, and lymphadenopathy for which 
recovery is usually complete in 7 to 10 days. However, 5-10% of patients progress to DHF/DSS 
which is characterized by abnormalities of homeostasis and increased vascular permeability that 
can lead to hypovolemia and hypotension (DSS), often complicated by severe internal bleeding. 
The case fatality rate of DHF can be as high as 10% without therapy, but is below 1% in most 
centers with modern intensive supportive therapy. 
Routine laboratory diagnosis of dengue infections is based on the detection of dengue virus-
specific antibodies (Abs) (immunoglobulin M [IgM]) and/or isolation of the virus or detection of 
viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) or 
viral non-structural protein 1 (NS1) antigen (Ag) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay 
(ELISA) (2) (3) (4). The diagnosis of dengue falls into 2 stages: Stage I, the acute fever period 
lasting a few days when viremia and NS1 Ag may be detected; and Stage II, the early post-febrile 
period lasting a few weeks when IgM and immunoglobulin G (IgG) are increased. 
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 3.9 billion people are at risk 
living in dengue endemic countries in Africa, the Americas, the Eastern Mediterranean, South 
East Asia, and the Western Pacific. The American, South East Asian and the Western Pacific 
regions are the most seriously affected. The WHO currently estimates there may be 390 million 
dengue virus infections worldwide every year, of which 96 million are associated with clinical 
manifestations of dengue. An estimated 500,000 people with severe dengue require 
hospitalization each year of which 2.5% of those die (1). The populations most affected by dengue 
are pre-adolescents, adolescents and adults living in dengue endemic areas. All 4 dengue virus 
serotypes vary unpredictably over time, causing a continuous risk of infection in populations 
living in dengue-endemic regions. No currently available preventative measures have significantly

impacted dengue disease, thus as recognized by the WHO, the need for a safe and effective 
vaccine against all 4 serotypes of dengue virus to protect people in endemic countries (5). 
Human Papillomavirus Disease (HPV) (6) 
HPV is a common DNA virus the papillomavirus family that can infect different parts of the 
body. Like all papillomaviruses, HPVs establish productive infections only in keratinocytes of the 
skin or mucous membranes. There are over 170 types of HPV and more than 40 types of HPV are 
primarily sexually transmitted and can cause anal and genital warts. Other types may lead to more 
serious consequences such as cervical, penile and anal cancers as well as certain cancers of the 
head and neck. Types 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68, 73, and 82 are carcinogenic 
"high-risk" sexually transmitted HPVs and may lead to the development of precancerous disease 
and cancer including cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia, 
penile intraepithelial neoplasia, and/or anal intraepithelial neoplasia. 
Most HPV infections are subclinical, rapidly cleared by the immune system and go away without 
treatment over the course of a few years. However, in some people subclinical infections can 
become clinical through persistence of HPV infections. 70% of clinical HPV infections, in young 
men and women, may regress to subclinical in one year and 90% in two years. In 5% to 10% of 
infected women, persistent HPV infection may cause benign papillomas (such as warts [verrucae] 
or squamous cell papilloma), or cancers of the cervix, vulva, vagina, oropharynx and anus. In 
particular, persistent infection with “high-risk” HPV types may progress to precancerous lesions 
and invasive cancer. High-risk HPV infection with HPV16 and HPV18 are known to cause 
around 70% of cervical cancer cases. 
In more developed countries, cervical screening using a Papanicolaou (Pap) test or liquid-based 
cytology is used to detect abnormal cells that may develop into cancer. If abnormal cells are 
found, women are invited to have a colposcopy. During a colposcopic inspection, biopsies can be 
taken and abnormal areas can be removed with a simple procedure, typically with a cauterizing 
loop or, more commonly in the developing world—by freezing (cryotherapy). Treating abnormal 
cells in this way can prevent them from developing into cervical cancer. Pap smears have reduced 
the incidence and fatalities of cervical cancer in the developed world. 
Worldwide in 2002, an estimated 561,200 new cancer cases (5.2% of all new cancers) were 
attributable to HPV, making HPV one of the most important infectious causes of cancer 84% of 
new cervical cancers were in the developing world, compared with about 50% of all new cancers. 
HPV infection is the most frequently sexually transmitted disease in the world. Methods of 
reducing the chances of infection include sexual abstinence, condoms, vaccination and 
microbicides.

Background of the Investigational Product 
Sanofi Pasteur’s tetravalent CYD dengue vaccine, using recombinant technology to obtain a live-
attenuated vaccine, is currently indicated for the prevention of dengue disease caused by all 
4 serotypes (1, 2, 3, and 4) in individuals 9-60 years of age living in endemic regions. 
Immunization against dengue is based on a 3-dose immunization schedule, 6 months apart (0, 6, 
and 12 months) administered subcutaneously with CYD dengue vaccine. The indicated population

has been defined based on a Benefit / Risk evaluation of the overall population included in the 
clinical development plan. 
In support of this product profile, an extensive clinical development program, compliant with 
WHO and European Medicines Agency guidelines has been conducted (7), for which the CYD 
dengue vaccine efficacy, immunogenicity and safety has been assessed in various formulations, 
schedules and populations. 
• In Phase I trials, a total of 396 subjects aged 2-49 years of age were evaluated for safety. 
Subjects were evaluated in both non-endemic and endemic areas and were received at least 
one dose of Phase I lots of CYD dengue vaccine containing either 4 log10 or 5 ± 1 log10 cell-
culture infectious dose 50% (CCID50) per serotype. 
• In Phase II trials, approximately 4900 subjects aged 12 months-45 years of age to further 
evaluate safety and immunogenicity in non-endemic and endemic areas including Asia Pacific 
and Latin America which supported the selection of the final formulation of 3 doses of CYD 
dengue vaccine of 5 log10 CCID50 per serotype as 3 injections administered 6 months apart. A 
proof of concept efficacy study (CYD23) in Thailand in 4-11 years old has been completed in 
2012 (8). Subjects from CYD23 are being followed for safety in a long-term follow-up study 
(CYD57) for a total of 5 years post-dose 3 (PD3). 
• In Phase III trials, approximately 23,140 subjects aged 9 months to 60 years of age have 
received at least 1 dose of Phase III lots of CYD dengue vaccine (4.5 – 6.0 log10 CCID50 per 
serotype). Two pivotal large-scale efficacy studies (CYD14 (9) and CYD15 (10) conducted 
in Asia Pacific (10,275 subjects aged 2 to 14 years old) and Latin America (20,869 subjects 
aged 9 to 16 years old) respectively, have completed the 25 months of the Active Phase and 
the first year of the Hospital Phase (long-term follow-up). These efficacy studies were 
powered to independently demonstrate significant vaccine efficacy (VE) of the CYD dengue 
vaccine and they met their primary endpoints. To include the totality of efficacy studies 
(CYD14, CYD15) analyzed over the 25 months of Active Phase, and the availability of further 
safety data for an additional one year of long term follow-up in the Hospital Phase, post-hoc 
meta-analyses were performed with improved point estimate precision for descriptive 
outcomes (11). Consistent VE was demonstrated during the 25 months of Active Phase for 
virologically-confirmed dengue (VCD): 65% (95% CI: 60.7-69.9) for any severity of dengue 
disease, caused by any and each of the 4 dengue serotypes, severe dengue 93.2 % (95% CI: 
77.3-96.0) and dengue leading to hospitalization 80.8% (95% CI: 70.1-87.7). VE was also 
demonstrated for dengue-seropositive 81.9% (95% CI: 67.2-90) and dengue-seronegative 
52.5% (95% CI: 5.9-76.1) vaccinees. No safety issues have been identified in subjects 9-16 
years of age during the 25 months of active period or during the first year of long term follow-
up in the Hospital Phase (9) (10) (11). This included no observed increase in dengue disease 
severity compared to the placebo group. 
In interim results of the long term follow-up, for the first 3 years of the Hospitalized Phase pooled 
efficacy results demonstrated a continued benefit in subjects who were 9 years and above with 
lower risk of hospitalized VCD (relative risk [RR] of 0.535 [95% CI: 0.38; 0.75] in the vaccine 
compared to the placebo group, after at least 1 dose of CYD dengue vaccine). All subjects who 
were hospitalized due to dengue fully recovered after receiving appropriate supportive treatment 
(12). However, in CYD14, during the first year of the Hospital Phase, the RR suggests an overall

trend to increased risk of hospitalized VCD in the vaccine compared to the placebo group among 
subjects <9 years of age (RR of 1.146 [95% CI: 0.83; 1.59] after at least 1 dose of CYD dengue 
vaccine), in particular in the 2 to 5 years old age group. 
As of September 2016, a total of 25 completed or ongoing clinical studies in 15 endemic and non-
endemic countries including Latin America and Asia Pacific have been conducted, comprising 
more than 41,500 subjects from 9 months through 60 years of age. Of these subjects, 21,215 were 
aged 9 through 60 years of age and received at least 1 dose of CYD dengue vaccine formulation. 
Furthermore, the CYD dengue vaccine has demonstrated a consistent and acceptable safety profile 
within 6 months post any injection, comparable with placebo, across many populations (age 
groups, gender, region, and dengue immune status) in subjects 9 to 60 years of age. The high post-
injection neutralizing antibody titers observed in adults living in endemic areas, allows the 
extrapolation of vaccine efficacy through immunological bridging to adult populations living in 
endemic areas. 
As of December 2017, 6 additional clinical studies including CYD71 are being conducted with 
the CYD dengue vaccine in Asia Pacific and Latin America since the first license was obtained 
(CYD63, CYD64, CYD65, CYD66 and CYD67). These studies are either investigating the safety 
and immunogenicity of the CYD dengue vaccine when co-administered with other vaccines 
(CYD66/67/71) or the need and timing of a booster dose (CYD63/64/65). All these studies are 
being amended in accordance with the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) 
recommendation to vaccinate only dengue exposed subjects. 
CYD dengue vaccine is indicated for the prevention of dengue disease caused by any of the 
DENV serotypes 1, 2, 3, and 4, in individuals aged 9 years and above living in dengue-endemic 
countries. Currently in Mexico, CYD dengue vaccine also known as Dengvaxia®, is indicated for 
the prevention of disease caused by all four dengue virus serotypes in preadolescents, adolescents 
and adults, 9 to 45/60 years of age. 
Sanofi has recently proposed that national regulatory agencies update the prescribing information, 
known as the label in many countries, adding a “Warning” to the intention of individuals who 
have not been previously infected by dengue virus and for whom vaccination is not 
recommended.

Potential Benefits and Risks 
Detailed risk/benefit analysis is presented in the Investigator’s Brochure. 
1.3.1 
Potential Benefits to Subjects 
In terms of benefit, the subjects participating in the present clinical trial may develop immunity 
and protection against dengue disease after vaccination with CYD dengue vaccine. 
The subjects participating in this trial who receive the 2-dose series of Cervarix (HPV vaccine) will 
likely gain immunological protection against HPV Types 16 and 18.  
A number of supplemental exploratory analyses (see Section 1.4, Rationale for Amendment 1) 
have provided evidences that, for subjects that were naturally dengue exposed prior to the first 
CYD dengue vaccine injection, the vaccine protects against symptomatic dengue, and provides

persistent protective benefit against hospitalized dengue, and severe dengue disease up to 5 years 
after the first injection.  
As with any vaccine, immunological protection may not be elicited in all individuals against the 
disease they are designed to prevent. 
1.3.2 
Potential Risks to Subjects 
CYD Dengue Vaccine 
During the clinical development of dengue vaccine as well as during the Active Phase of the 
Phase III efficacy studies, no safety concerns after administration of the CYD dengue vaccine 
emerged from the pooled safety analysis, providing sufficient evidence that the safety profile of 
the CYD dengue vaccine is acceptable and similar to the safety profile of licensed vaccines in 
similar population. 
Potential unwanted effects include injection site reactions such as erythema, swelling, induration, 
and pain. General disorders may also be observed such as fever, malaise, asthenia, myalgia and 
headache. As for any drugs, a risk of allergic reaction cannot be excluded. Vasovagal malaise 
linked to the injection procedure may be observed in susceptible individuals. Full list of expected 
adverse events (AEs) can be found in the Investigator’s Brochure. 
As CYD dengue vaccine has a yellow fever (YF) vaccine backbone, and YF vaccination has been 
rarely associated with viscerotropic and neurotropic AEs, this risk has to be considered. This 
theoretical risk linked to viscerotropism and neurotropism is further addressed in the “Guidelines 
for assessing viscerotropic and neurotropic AE” document. In the previous studies conducted with 
the CYD dengue vaccine, no confirmed viscerotropic or neurotropic AEs have been observed.  
Although an unexplained higher incidence of hospitalization for dengue in year 1 of follow-up 
among children younger than 9 years was observed in CYD14 efficacy trial, in particular in 
children from 2 to 5 years old, the combined analysis of efficacy trials up to year 5 post-
injection 1 showed a lower risk of hospitalization for dengue among participants who were 9 
years of age or older in the vaccine group than among those in the control group. All subjects who 
were hospitalized due to dengue fully recovered after receiving appropriate supportive treatment 
(11).  
Following a number of supplemental exploratory analyses (see Section 1.4, Rationale for 
Amendment 1), it was shown that subjects that were never dengue exposed prior to the first CYD 
dengue vaccine injection have an increased risk of hospitalized or severe disease, as compared to 
subjects who received the placebo. 
Cervarix 
Potential risks for subjects receiving Cervarix include fatigue, myalgia, gastrointestinal 
symptoms, and arthralgia. 
All subjects 
The potential risks associated with blood drawing include local injection site reactions such as 
erythema, swelling, induration, and pain, bruising and, rarely infection. 
General disorders may also be observed such as fever, malaise, asthenia, myalgia and headache.

The potential risk for vasovagal syncope (fainting) can occur following, or even before, any 
vaccination  in this age group (CYD dengue vaccine or Cervarix), as a psychogenic response to 
the needle injection. This is sometimes associated by other neurological signs such as transient 
visual disturbance, paraesthesia and tonic-clonic movements on resolution of syncope.  
The potential risks listed here are not exhaustive; refer to the package inserts of Cervarix for 
additional information regarding potential risks. Full list of expected AEs for the CYD dengue 
vaccine can be found in the Investigator’s Brochure. 
1.4 
Rationale for the Trial 
Previous preventive measures presently relied on mosquito control and personal protection. These 
measures are limited in efficacy, difficult to enforce, and expensive. The best method of 
prevention lies with the development of a safe and effective vaccine directed at the 4 serotypes of 
dengue virus responsible for the disease. Currently licensed in Mexico and in the Philippines, 
CYD dengue vaccine also known as Dengvaxia, is indicated for the prevention of disease caused 
by all four dengue virus serotypes in preadolescents, adolescents and adults, 9 to 45/60 years of 
age.  
This post-licensure study will assess the immunogenicity and safety of CYD dengue vaccine 
when administered concomitantly or sequentially with Cervarix. 
Cervarix is a suspension for injection of HPV bivalent (types 16 and 18) vaccine (recombinant, 
adjuvanted, adsorbed) indicated for the prevention of cervical cancer, CIN grade 2 or worse and 
adenocarcinoma in situ, and CIN grade 1 caused by oncogenic HPV types 16 and 18, in females 
aged 9 through 26 years of age (13). Cervarix is currently recommended by WHO for female 
subjects 9 through 14 years of age in a 2 dose schedule (0, 6 months), and 15 years to 26 years in 
a 3 dose schedule (0, 1, 6 months) (14). Since 2006, HPV vaccines have been licensed in over 
100 countries (15). 
There is currently no data on concomitant administration of CYD dengue vaccine with other 
vaccines in the indicated population in subjects 9 years and above. Co-administration of CYD 
dengue vaccine with other vaccines has been assessed in clinical studies outside the age 
indication, in toddlers 9 to 15 months of age at inclusion in dengue endemic countries. A Phase II 
study was conducted to evaluate the co-administration of CYD dengue vaccine together with 
Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR, Trimovax®, Live attenuated virus vaccine against Measles 
[Schwartz strain], Mumps [Urabe AM-9 strain] and Rubella [Wistar RA 27/3M strain; Sanofi 
Pasteur) vaccine (CYD08) (16), and 2 Phase III studies (CYD29 and CYD33) were conducted to 
evaluate the co-administration of CYD dengue vaccine together with the YF vaccine (Stamaril®, 
Yellow fever vaccine [live]; Sanofi Pasteur) and the DTaP-IPV-PRP-T (Hib) vaccine 
(Pentaxim®, Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis [acellular, component], Poliomyelitis [inactivated] 
vaccine [adsorbed] and Haemophilus Influenza Type b Conjugate Vaccine; Sanofi Pasteur). These 
trials demonstrated that the CYD dengue vaccine could be administered concomitantly with these 
pediatric vaccines and no safety concerns or impact on the immune response was observed. 
Based on the current age indication of the dengue vaccine, and to facilitate implementation of 
school-based dengue vaccination programs, co-administration with Cervarix, currently used in

public sector school-based vaccination programs in several dengue-endemic countries in subjects 
aged 9 years and above, is needed. 
The main purpose of this study is to demonstrate that CYD dengue vaccine can be safely co-
administered with Cervarix without impacting the immune responses to either vaccine. The 
present Phase IIIb randomized, open-label trial (CYD71) will investigate the immunogenicity and 
safety of the CYD dengue vaccine when it is administered concomitantly or sequentially with 
Cervarix at least 28 days apart in 480 subjects aged 9 to 14 years. 
Rationale for Protocol Amendment 1 
This amended protocol introduces one important change to the original protocol of the ongoing 
CYD71 clinical study. 
In July 2016, the WHO issued a position paper on Sanofi Pasteur’s CYD dengue vaccine based on 
the “Strategic Advisory Group of Experts” (SAGE) assessment that recognized its potential public 
health value when introduced in highly endemic countries. In addition, the SAGE also underlined 
the importance of addressing the question of the potential risk, over time, of hospitalized/severe 
dengue in individuals with no prior exposure to dengue before vaccination (17) (18). Other 
scientific, public health, and regulatory leaders have expressed similar interest in obtaining more 
information on the long-term safety and efficacy of the CYD vaccine in seronegative individuals. 
Sanofi Pasteur recognized this knowledge gap and remained committed to further evaluate the 
performance of the CYD vaccine. 
Analyzing long-term safety according to dengue serostatus at baseline presented an important 
challenge as serostatus had only been assessed in a subset of subjects (the so-called 
immunogenicity subset) in each of the 3 efficacy studies (CYD14, CYD15 and CYD23/57). As a 
consequence of this, and in order to address the question of vaccine performance in seronegative 
individuals, Sanofi Pasteur decided to conduct an Exploratory Case-Cohort study using a time 
point for which a blood sample was collected in all study participants: approximately 1 month 
after the third injection of CYD dengue vaccine or placebo (month [M] 13). The rationale behind 
this approach was that the classification of study participants according to dengue serostatus at 
this time point (as a surrogate of prior natural dengue exposure) could be used as a baseline for the 
evaluation of outcomes that occur later. However, the PRNT assay routinely used to quantify 
neutralizing Ab titers cannot discriminate between neutralizing Abs against wild-type dengue 
virus and chimeric dengue virus. Said otherwise, a positive PRNT assay at M13 can be the result 
of either prior dengue exposure or CYD dengue vaccination. 
To overcome this challenge, Sanofi Pasteur leveraged an assay originally developed at University 
of Pittsburg (Pittsburg, PA, USA) and optimized by Sanofi Pasteur’s Global Clinical Immunology 
(GCI) Department. This assay measures total immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against the non-
structural protein 1 (NS1) of the dengue virus by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay 
(ELISA). Because the NS1 protein is not conserved between the dengue virus and the yellow-
fever virus, previous exposure to CYD dengue vaccine is not expected to induce meaningful 
levels of antibody against the dengue NS1 protein. The application of the Dengue anti-NS1 IgG 
ELISA assay to M13 samples was therefore considered useful for expanding the existing data on 
both VE and potential risk of dengue hospitalization and/or severe dengue according to baseline 
serostatus in the CYD dengue vaccine efficacy trials. Thus, dengue serostatus was used in a

supplemental case-cohort study as a covariate to assess the effects of CYD dengue vaccine for 
outcomes that occur after M13. In addition, the Dengue anti-NS1 IgG ELISA values were used in 
conjunction with multiple additional variables in imputation models to predict the D0 PRNT50 
serostatus, to evaluate outcomes occurring after M0 and M13 by measured (where available), or 
imputed PRNT50 serostatus. 
Sanofi Pasteur presented the full data of this supplemental analysis to the IDMC in an ad hoc 
meeting held on 3-4 November 2017. During this meeting, the IDMC reviewed the data from 
these extended safety and efficacy analyses. It concluded that, in the case of subjects exposed to 
dengue prior to vaccination (henceforth, “exposed subjects” or seropositive subjects), there is 
strong evidence that the vaccine protects them from symptomatic dengue, hospitalized dengue and 
severe dengue. In the case of subjects unexposed to dengue before vaccination (henceforth, 
“unexposed” subjects or seronegative subjects), the conclusion was that although vaccination may 
confer limited short-term benefit against symptomatic dengue, it also induces an increased risk of 
severe disease in the longer term. The IDMC stated that these findings are based on follow-up of 
dengue unexposed subjects having received 3 CYD dengue vaccine doses and no data exist to 
conclude if the risk in partially vaccinated dengue unexposed subjects is different from that in 
fully vaccinated dengue unexposed subjects. 
Given these conclusions, the IDMC recommended that no further vaccination occurs in 
unexposed subjects in ongoing or future trials, and on precautionary basis, including partially 
vaccinated subjects in ongoing trials. In addition, they recommended making available 
information on baseline serostatus for all vaccinated subjects whenever possible. Finally, for 
unexposed subjects that were vaccinated during a study, the IDMC recommended instituting 
mechanisms to provide timely access to appropriate care in the event of suspected dengue, for 10 
years from the date of last vaccination. 
Given the IDMC recommendations, Sanofi Pasteur decided to put this study on hold and to amend 
its study protocol. As a general rule, only subjects assessed as dengue exposed at baseline (ie, 
before receiving the first CYD dengue vaccine injection) will be eligible to receive any further 
dose of CYD dengue vaccine in an ongoing study. In CYD71, all subjects will be informed about 
their serostatus at baseline and what it means. Moreover, all subjects will be asked about their 
willingness to continue participating in this study by signing an updated Informed Consent Form 
(ICF) and/or Assent Form (AF), as applicable. To determine the basal serostatus of the subjects 
already included in the study, the PRNT assay will be used. 
At the time CYD71 was paused, all subjects had received 2 injections of Cervarix and 2 injections 
of CYD dengue vaccine. Further information is provided in Section 5.1.3. 
Subjects identified as dengue unexposed (seronegative) at baseline, will only be able to continue 
in the study for safety follow-up but will receive no further injections of CYD dengue vaccine. 
Subjects assessed as dengue-exposed at baseline will be eligible to receive the third injection of 
CYD dengue vaccine to complete the 3-dose schedule. Dengue-exposed subjects that remain in 
the study but decide against receiving the last injection will continue in the study for safety 
follow-up (see Section 5.1.4).

Investigational Plan 
5.1 
Description of the Overall Trial Design and Plan 
5.1.1 
Trial Design 
This is a Phase IIIb, randomized, open-label, multicenter study in 480 female subjects aged 9 to 
14 years in Mexico. 
Subjects have been randomized in a 1:1 ratio into one of the 2 following groups to receive: 
• Group 1 (N=240): 3 doses of CYD dengue vaccine and 2 doses of Cervarix (Human 
Papillomavirus Bivalent [Types 16 and 18] Vaccine, Recombinant; GlaxoSmithKline) 
concomitantly to the 2 first doses of CYD dengue vaccine 
• Group 2 (N=240): 3 doses of CYD dengue vaccine and 2 doses of Cervarix sequentially to the 
2 first doses of CYD dengue vaccine 
For both vaccines, each dose is to be administered 6 months apart. 
As per Protocol Amendment 1, only subjects identified as dengue-exposed (seropositive) before 
administration of the first CYD dengue injection and who consented to receive the remaining 
injection of dengue vaccine will continue in the study as per initial study procedures. Subjects 
identified as unexposed (seronegative) at baseline, will only be able to continue in the study for a 
6-month safety follow-up. They will not receive the third and last injection of CYD dengue 
vaccine. 
5.1.2 
Justification of the Trial Design 
There is currently no data on concomitant administration of CYD dengue vaccine with other 
vaccines in the indicated population aged 9-45/60 years of age. Based on the current age 
indication of the CYD dengue vaccine, co-administration data with Cervarix, currently used in 
public sector school-based vaccination programs in females aged 9 years and above, could support 
implementation of school-based vaccination programs for CYD vaccine. Therefore, the present 
CYD71 study will investigate the immunogenicity and safety of the CYD dengue vaccine 
candidate when it is administered concomitantly or sequentially with Cervarix at least 28 days 
apart in female subjects aged 9 to 14 years. 
5.1.3 
Trial Plan

In the original protocol v1.0, subjects from Group 1 were expected to attend V07 at M12 and V08 at M13. 
Likewise, subjects from Group 2 were expected to attend V07 at M13 and V08 at M14. 
At the time of Protocol Amendment 1, procedures planned at V07 (most subjects) or V08 (2 subjects from 
Group 1) were on hold, depending on subjects’ progression. Time for the approval of Protocol Amendment 
1 by the competent authorities and completion of the associated logistic tasks will result into a delay of 
study activities (approximately 6 months), and thus to an extension of study duration for dengue exposed 
subjects. 
†  
When concomitantly administered, the CYD dengue vaccine and Cervarix will be administered in 
2 different sites with the CYD dengue vaccine administered in one deltoid and Cervarix in the other deltoid 
‡  
This includes seronegative subjects that consent to remain in the study and seropositive subjects that 
consent to stay in the study but prefer not to receive the next dose of CYD dengue vaccine 
At the time of Protocol Amendment 1 writing, all subjects from both groups have received the 
second injection of CYD dengue vaccine and completed the vaccination schedule for Cervarix. 
Only 2 subjects from Group 1 had completed the 3-dose schedule for the CYD dengue vaccine. 
Visits on hold were: 
• For Group 1, Visit 7 (M12) was on hold for most of the subjects and Visit 8 (M13) was on 
hold for the 2 subjects who had received the third dose of CYD dengue vaccine.  
• For Group 2, Visit 7 (M13).  
Dengue unexposed subjects will not receive further dengue vaccine injection. If they consent to 
continue their participation in the study, they will be contacted by phone call for a safety follow-
up 6 months after the last injection. They will not attend any further study visits (except the 
unscheduled visit and/or the next schedule visit planned to sign the ICF) and will no longer 
provide blood samples.

Dengue exposed subjects who consent to continue in the study but decided against receiving the 
last CYD dengue vaccine injection will be contacted by phone call for a safety follow-up 6 
months after the last injection. They will not attend any further study visits (except the 
unscheduled visit and/or the next schedule visit planned to sign the ICF) and will no longer 
provide blood samples. 
For dengue exposed subjects who consent to continue in the study and to receive the next CYD 
dengue vaccine injection, procedures will be as followed: 
Vaccinations 
Subjects will receive 5 injections, 3 doses of CYD dengue vaccine and 2 doses of Cervarix 
administered either concomitantly (Group 1) or sequentially (Group 2):  
• Group 1: Cervarix and CYD dengue vaccine (concomitantly) at Day (D)0 and Month (M)6, 
and CYD dengue vaccine (alone) at M12 
• Group 2: Cervarix (alone) at D0 and M6, and CYD dengue vaccine (alone) at D0+28D (M1), 
M6+28D (M7), and M12+28D (M13) 
Study Visits 
Subjects will have to attend 6 (Group 1) or 8 (Group 2) visits and will have 1 phone call for the 6-
month follow-up after the last injection of CYD dengue vaccine. Interim phone calls will be given 
7 days (+8 days of time windows) after each injection and approximately 2 months after blood 
samples during the 6-month period between each vaccination.  
An unscheduled visit or phone call will take place during the study pause in order to communicate 
the new data on the CYD dengue vaccine to each subject (delivering or reading of a “Dear 
ParticipantLetter”). This visit will be before the next visit initially planned (V07 for most subjects; 
V08 for 2 subjects). Dengue serostatus at baseline may be communicated to the subjects, if 
available, at the time of the unscheduled visit. 
Subject’s participation in the study was expected to be of 18 or 19 months. Time for the approval 
of Protocol Amendment 1 by the competent authorities and completion of the associated logistic 
tasks will result in a hold of study activities (approximately 6 months), and thus, in an extension 
of study duration for dengue exposed subjects. 
Blood Samples 
Subjects will provide blood samples: 
• for CYD dengue vaccine immunogenicity assessments by dengue neutralizing Abs (4 mL) 
before the first vaccination (at D0 in Group 1, and M1 in Group 2), and 28 days after each 
vaccination with CYD dengue vaccine (M1, M7 and M13 in Group 1, and M2, M8 and M14 
in Group 2) 
• for HPV immunogenicity assessments by ELISA (2 mL) before the first vaccination at D0, 
and 28 days after each vaccination with Cervarix (M1 and M7) 
Additional biological samples that may be collected at any time throughout the study period, 
regardless of the subject’s dengue serostatus:

Visit Procedures 
All information collected during the study visits must be reported into the source documents. 
Some of the following information will also be recorded in the case report form (CRF). 
Visit 1 (Day 0): Inclusion, Randomization, and Vaccination 
The Investigator or designated study personnel will: 
1) Give the subject’s parent/legally acceptable representative information about the trial, obtain 
written informed consent (ICF and AF when applicable), and give him/her a signed copy. 
2) Obtain significant medical history about the subject and history of dengue infection. 
3) Collect demographic data. 
4) Check concomitant medications and record every reportable medication ongoing at the time 
of vaccination. 
5) Check inclusion and exclusion criteria for eligibility.  
6) Perform a physical examination and record the subject’s axillary temperature.  
7) For subjects of childbearing potentiala, perform a urine pregnancy test. 
8) Allocate a subject number to the subject.  
9) Scratch-off the randomization list to obtain the group allocation, and sign it. 
10) Obtain the first blood sampleb (see Section 7.1 for detailed instructions regarding the 
handling of blood samples). Blood is to be taken from the limb opposite to the one that will 
                                                 
a  To be considered of non-child-bearing potential, a female must be pre-menarche, surgically sterile, or using an 
effective method of contraception or abstinence from at least 4 weeks prior to vaccination and until at least 3 
weeks after vaccination. 
b  It is important to note that, if the attempt(s) to collect blood is (are) unsuccessful, the subject should be given the 
opportunity for another attempt, even on another day. If ultimately a blood sample cannot be obtained, the reason 
will be recorded in the CRF. In that case, and if the subject wants to participate in the trial, she will be vaccinated.

Safety Follow-up (6-month period after last vaccination) for all subjects, exposed and 
unexposed, having accepted to continue participation in the trial post-amendment 1 
During the 6-month safety follow-up after the last vaccination, subjects will be highly invited to 
contact the sponsor in case of SAE. In case of hospitalized suspected dengue case, one unplanned 
acute blood sample will have to be collected within the first 5 days after fever onset for 
virological confirmation of dengue disease. If this cannot be accomplished within the first 5 days 
after fever onset, this sample should still be obtained as soon as possible thereafter, for IDMC 
severity assessment.  
Safety Follow-up Telephone Call (6 months after last vaccination): Collection of SAEs for all 
subjects, exposed and unexposed, having accepted to continue participation in the trial post-
amendment 1 
The last contact is planned to be held 6 months after the last injection with the CYD dengue 
vaccine, regardless of the number of doses received by the subject. The Investigator or designated 
study personnel will: 
1) Ask the parent(s)/legally acceptable representative(s) if the subject has experienced any SAE 
in the time since vaccination. If an SAE occurred, follow the instructions in Section 10 for 
reporting it. 
2) Complete the relevant CRF pages for this contact. 
A follow-up visit can be arranged depending on the information recorded during the phone call. 
SAEs and AEs That Are Related to Vaccination or That Led to Discontinuation: 
At any time during the study, a subject who experiences an SAE or an AE must be followed if 
either of the following is true: 
• 
The SAE or AE is considered by the Investigator to be related to vaccination, and is not 
resolved by the end of the subject’s participation in the trial 
• 
The subject has been discontinued from the trial because of the SAE or AE 
Any such subject must be followed until the condition resolves, becomes stable, or becomes 
chronic.

Planned date of final clinical study report: Q1 2020 
Initially, the expected duration of each subject’s participation in the trial was approximately 18 
months for Group 1 and 19 months for Group 2, including a safety follow-up period of 6 months 
after the third injection of CYD dengue vaccine. However, the time for the approval of Protocol 
Amendment 1 by the competent authorities and completion of the associated logistic tasks will 
result in a hold of study activities (approximately 6 months), and thus, in an extension of study 
duration for dengue exposed subjects. 
5.1.6 
Early Safety Data Review 
This trial will not include an early review of safety data. However, it may be interrupted at any 
time if new data about the investigational product become available, and/or on advice of the 
Sponsor, the IECs/IRBs, or the governing regulatory authorities in Mexico where the trial is 
taking place.  
If the trial is prematurely terminated or suspended, the Sponsor will promptly inform the 
Investigators, the IECs/IRBs, and the regulatory authorities of the reason for termination or 
suspension.  
If the trial is prematurely terminated for any reason, the Investigator will promptly inform the 
subjects and/or the subjects’ parents/legally acceptable representatives and should assure 
appropriate therapy and follow-up. 
An internal Safety Evaluation Team (SET) performed a safety analysis on safety data during the 
conduct of the trial. 
5.2 
Enrollment and Retention of Trial Population 
5.2.1 
Recruitment Procedures 
Before the start of the trial, the Investigator and/or study staff will determine the recruitment 
strategy to be used for this study (e.g., advertising, database, direct mail, word of mouth referral). 
Using the relevant methods they will contact an appropriate pool of potential subjects and invite 
them to participate in the study. The site will ensure that any advertisements or materials they plan 
to use to recruit subjects (e.g., letters, pamphlets, posters, etc.) are submitted to Sanofi Pasteur for 
review prior to submission to the IEC/IRB for approval. 
5.2.2 
Informed Consent Procedures 
Informed consent is the process by which a subject and an appropriate and legally acceptable 
representative voluntarily confirms his or her willingness to participate in a particular trial. 
Informed consent must be obtained before any study procedures are performed. The process is

documented by means of a written, signed, and dated ICF. Depending on age, the subject may be 
required to sign and date the AF, which varies according to local or regional regulations. The AF 
is in addition to, not in place of, an ICF that is signed by the parent(s)/legally acceptable 
representative(s). 
Following Protocol Amendment 1 to the original protocol Version 1.0 dated 04 January 2016, 
subject/subject's parent(s)/legally acceptable representative(s) is to sign the Amendment 1 to 
AF/ICF, as per local regulations. 
In accordance with GCP, prior to signing and dating the consent form, the subject and an 
appropriate and legally acceptable representative must be informed by appropriate study personnel 
about all aspects of the trial that are relevant to making the decision to participate, and must have 
sufficient time and opportunity to ask any questions. 
If the subject and the appropriate and legally acceptable representative are not able to read and 
sign the ICF, then it must be signed and dated by an impartial witness who is independent of the 
Investigator. A witness who signs and dates the consent form is certifying that the information in 
this form and any other written information had been accurately explained to and understood by 
the subject or his / her representative. 
The actual ICF used at each center may differ, depending on local regulations and IEC/IRB 
requirements. However, all versions must contain the standard information found in the sample 
ICF provided by the Sponsor. Any change to the content of the ICF and AF must be approved by 
the Sponsor and the IEC/IRB prior to the form being used. 
If new information becomes available that may be relevant to the subject’s or legally acceptable 
representative’s willingness to continue participation in the trial, this will be communicated to 
him/her in a timely manner. Such information will be provided via a revised ICF and AF. 
Informed consent forms will be provided in duplicate, or a photocopy of the signed consent will 
be made. The original will be kept by the Investigator, and the copy will be kept by the subject or 
the subject’s legally acceptable representative. 
Documentation of the consent process should be recorded in the source documents. 
5.2.3 
Screening Criteria 
There are no screening criteria other than the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 
5.2.4 
Inclusion Criteria 
An individual must fulfill all of the following criteria in order to be eligible for trial enrollment:

proposed study, or identified as an immediate family member (ie, parent, spouse, natural or 
adopted child) of the Investigator or employee with direct involvement in the proposed study 
16) Self-reported Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C infection 
Temporary Exclusion Criteria: 
A prospective subject must not be included in the study until the following conditions and/or 
symptoms are resolved: 
1) Moderate or severe acute illness/infection (according to Investigator judgment) or febrile 
illness (temperature ≥ 38.0°C) on the day of first vaccination. 
2) Receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding the first trial vaccination 
5.2.6 
Medical History 
Prior to enrollment, subjects will be assessed for pre-existing conditions and illnesses, both past 
and ongoing. Any such conditions will be documented in the source document. Significant 
medical history (reported as diagnosis) including conditions for which the subject is or has been 
followed by a physician or conditions that could resume during the course of the study or lead to 
an SAE or to a repetitive outpatient care will be collected in the CRF. The significant medical 
history section of the CRF contains a core list of body systems and disorders that could be used to 
prompt comprehensive reporting, as well as space for the reporting of specific conditions and 
illnesses. 
For each condition, the data collected will be limited to: 
• 
Diagnosis (this is preferable to reporting signs and symptoms) 
• 
Presence or absence of the condition at enrollment 
The reporting of signs and symptoms is strongly discouraged. 
Dates, medications, and body systems are not to be recorded, and the information collected will not 
be coded. Its purpose is to assist in the later interpretation of safety data collected during the trial.

Contraindications for Subsequent Vaccinations 
5.2.7.1 
Temporary Contraindications 
Should a subject experience one of the conditions listed below, the Investigator will postpone 
further vaccination until the condition is resolved. Postponement must still be within the 
timeframe for vaccination indicated in the Table of Study Procedures. 
• Febrile illness (temperature ≥ 38.0°C) or moderate or severe acute illness / infection on the 
day of vaccination, according to Investigator judgment 
• Receipt of any vaccine (other than trial vaccine) in the 4 weeks preceding the trial vaccination  
5.2.7.2 
Definitive Contraindications 
Should a subject experience one of the conditions listed below, the Investigator will discontinue 
vaccination: 
1) Pregnancy, as indicated by a positive urine test, or lactation 
2) An anaphylactic or other significant allergic reaction to the previous dose of vaccine 
3) Individual with acquired immunodeficiency (including HIV infection with impaired immune 
function); or receipt of immunosuppressive therapy, such as anti-cancer chemotherapy, 
radiation therapy or systemic corticosteroid therapy (prednisone or equivalent) 
4) Ongoing clinical AE related to the previous trial vaccination, and in the Investigator’s 
opinion, contraindicating further vaccination 
5) SAE related to the study vaccine following the previous trial vaccination 
The following definitive contraindication has been added in Protocol Amendment 1 and is 
applicable for the third injection of the CYD dengue vaccine: 
6) Subjects identified as “dengue unexposed” (seronegative) before the first CYD dengue 
vaccine injection 
Subjects will not be withdrawn due to contraindication but will be followed up for safety and 
possibly immunogenicity assessment. If a subject has been identified as “dengue unexposed”, she 
will have the possibility to continue participating to the study and will be follow-up for safety. 
5.2.8 
Conditions for Withdrawal  
Subjects/Parents/Legally acceptable representatives will be informed that they have the right to 
withdraw from the trial at any time. 
• At the discretion of the Investigator or Sponsor due to safety concerns (withdrawal) without 
the subject’s permission 
• At the request of the subject/legally acceptable representative (dropout)  
The following will result in automatic withdrawal or exclusion of a subject from the study:

Page 53 of 99 
• Significant non-compliance with the protocol, based on the Investigator’s judgment 
The reason for a withdrawal or dropout should be clearly documented in the source documents 
and on the CRF.  
The Investigator must determine whether voluntary withdrawal is due to safety concerns (in 
which case, the reason for discontinuation will be noted as “SAE” or “other AE” as appropriate) 
or for another reason. 
Withdrawn subjects will not be replaced. 
5.2.9 
Lost to Follow-up Procedures 
In the case of subjects who fail to return for a follow-up examination, documented reasonable 
effort (ie, documented telephone calls and certified mail) should be undertaken to locate or recall 
them, or at least to determine their health status while fully respecting their rights. These efforts 
should be documented in the CRF and in the source documents. 
5.2.10 Classification of Subjects Who Discontinue the Trial 
For any subject who discontinues the trial prior to completion, the most significant reason for 
early termination will be checked in the CRF. Reasons are listed below from the most significant 
to the least significant (refer to the CRF completion guidelines for additional details and 
examples): 
• Serious adverse event: To be used when a subject drops out of or is withdrawn from the 
study by the Investigator because of the occurrence of an SAE, as defined in Section 9.2.2.1. 
• Other adverse event: To be used when a subject drops out of or is withdrawn from the study 
by the Investigator because of the occurrence of an AE other than an SAE, as defined in 
Section 9.2.2.1. 
• Non-compliance with protocol: To be used when the Investigator withdraws a subject from 
the study because of failure to follow the protocol, including when it is retrospectively 
discovered that a subject did not fulfill the eligibility criteria. The Investigator will provide a 
comment as to the specific cause of non-compliance. 
• Lost to follow-up: To be used when the Investigator withdraws a subject from the study 
because of failure to establish contact, as outlined in Section 5.2.9. The Investigator will provide 
documentation that contact was attempted (ie, return of unsigned certified letter receipt). 
• Voluntary withdrawal not due to an adverse event: To be used when a subject drops out of 
the study for any reason other than those listed above. 
As per Protocol Amendment 1, every effort will be made to contact dengue unexposed subjects 
lost to follow-up or who discontinued after having received at least 1 dengue vaccine injection to 
inform them about their dengue status and their rights to access medical care in case of fever 
consistent with dengue illness for 10 years after the last dengue vaccine injection.

5.2.11 Follow-up of Discontinuations 
The site should complete all scheduled safety follow-ups and contact any subject who has 
prematurely terminated the trial because of an SAE, other type of AE, non-compliance with the 
protocol, or loss of eligibility, including definite contraindications.  
For subjects where the reason for early termination was lost to follow-up or if the subject 
withdrew informed consent and specified that they do not want to be contacted again and it is 
documented in the source document, the site will not attempt to obtain further safety information. 
For subjects where the reason for early termination is voluntary withdrawal, the site will attempt 
to contact them for the 6-month follow-up except if they specified that they do not want to be 
contacted again and it is documented in the source document. 
As per Protocol Amendment 1, unexposed subjects before vaccination who discontinued or 
withdrew their consent after having received at least 1 dengue vaccine injection will be contacted 
and informed about their dengue status and their rights to access medical care in case of fever 
consistent with dengue illness for 10 years after the last dengue vaccine injection. 
5.2.12 Follow-up and Reporting of Pregnancies 
Pregnancy is an exclusion criterion for enrollment in this study, but a subject could potentially 
become pregnant during her participation. In case of pregnancy and if at least one dose of the 
study vaccine(s) has been administered, the subject will not be discontinued from the trial and will 
be followed for safety assessment (and may be followed for immunogenicity assessment, if 
applicable). However, no additional vaccination will be administered.  
All pregnancy cases should be reported if they occurred during the study and during the 6 month 
follow-up period. To report the pregnancy case, the Investigator must fill out an Electronic 
Pregnancy Reporting Form in the Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system and inform the Sponsor 
within a month after identifying a pregnancy case.  
Study staff must then maintain contact with the subject to obtain information about the outcome—
ie, details about the delivery and the newborn, or about pregnancy termination—and must update 
the Electronic Pregnancy Reporting Form. This information should be provided to the Sponsor 
within 1 month of delivery. Additional follow-up visits may be performed according to the local 
regulations. 
Pregnancy itself is not considered as an AE, but any complications during pregnancy are to be 
considered as AEs, and in some cases could be considered SAEs. Spontaneous abortions, fetal 
death, stillbirth, and congenital anomalies reported in the baby are always considered as SAEs, 
and the information should be provided to the Global PharmacoVigilance (GPV) Department 
regardless of when the SAE occurs (e.g., even after the end of the trial). 
Also for all pregnancy cases the Study staff must keep in touch with the subject, in order to follow 
the pregnancy during the 9 months of gestation and for the first 6 next months of life of the new 
born baby and also during the child’s breast feeding period because the dengue vaccine may be 
excreted in breast milk and the monitoring has to be done during the breast feeding period and 3 
months after this period has finished. This monitoring of pregnancy and breastfeeding is in

Modification of the Trial and Protocol 
Any amendments to this trial plan and protocol must be discussed with and approved by the 
Sponsor. If agreement is reached concerning the need for an amendment, it will be produced in 
writing by the Sponsor, and the amended version of the protocol will replace the earlier version. 
All substantial amendments e.g., that affect the conduct of the trial or the safety of subjects, 
require IEC/IRB approval, and must also be forwarded to regulatory authorities. 
An administrative amendment to a protocol is one that modifies some administrative or logistical 
aspect of the trial but does not affect its design or objectives or have an impact on the subjects’ 
safety. The IECs/IRBs and regulatory authorities must be notified of administrative changes and 
will provide approval according to local regulations. 
The Investigator is responsible for ensuring that changes to an approved trial, during the period 
for which IEC/IRB approval has already been given, are not initiated without IEC/IRB review and 
approval, except to eliminate apparent immediate hazards to subjects. 
5.4 
Interruption of the Trial 
The trial may be discontinued if new data about the investigational product resulting from this or 
any other trials become available; or for administrative reasons; or on advice of the Sponsor, the 
Investigators, and/or the IECs/IRBs. If the trial is prematurely terminated or suspended, the 
Sponsor shall promptly inform the Investigators, the regulatory authorities, and the IECs/IRBs of 
the reason for termination or suspension, as specified by the applicable regulatory requirements. 
The Investigator shall promptly inform the trial subjects and assure appropriate therapy and / or 
follow-up for them.

6.1.1.2 
Preparation and Administration 
Sanofi Pasteur’s CYD dengue vaccine consists of a powder and solvent for suspension for 
injection and must be stored between +2°C and +8°C. 
The vaccine must be removed from the refrigerator, reconstituted with the solvent supplied for 
this purpose, and used immediately after reconstitution. 
The vaccine is to be administered subcutaneously in the deltoid region of the upper arm in a 
volume of 0.5 mL according to Operating Guidelines. 
Prior to administration, all study products must be inspected visually for cracks, broken seals, 
correct label content (see Section 6.3.1), and extraneous particulate matter and/or discoloration, 
whenever solution and container permit. If any of these conditions exists, the vaccine must not be 
administered. Another dose is to be used, and the event is to be reported to the Sponsor. 
After reconstitution with the solvent provided, the vaccine must be used as soon as possible and, 
for the multidose, discarded at the end of the immunization session or within 6 hours after 
reconstitution, whichever comes first. During this period, the vaccine must be kept between 2°C 
and 8°C, ie, in a refrigerator, and protected from light. 
For the multidose, before each injection, the reconstituted suspension should be gently swirled 
once again and a partially used multidose vial must be discarded immediately if: 
• Sterile dose withdrawal has not been fully observed. 
• A new sterile syringe and needle was not used for reconstitution or withdrawal of each of the 
previous doses. 
• There is any suspicion that the partially used vial has been contaminated. 
There is visible evidence of contamination, such as a change in appearance.

6.1.1.3 
Dose Selection and Timing 
Tetravalent vaccine: 
CYD01 assessed safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of monovalent DENV-2 chimeric 
vaccine which demonstrated a satisfactory immune response to serotype 2 but low seropositivity 
rates to other serotypes thus confirming the need for a tetravalent vaccine. In CYD04, CYD05, 
and CYD06 the choice of a tetravalent vaccine against all 4 serotypes was confirmed as assessed 
by immunogenicity responses in several populations across different age groups and with different 
FV background (FV naïve or immune). Furthermore this was supported by CYD11, whereby 
several bivalent formulations did not improve the immune response compared to tetravalent 
formulations. 
5 log10 CCID50 per serotype (5555) Formulation: 
The results of an early Phase I study (CYD02) showed that a tetravalent formulation with 4 log10 
CCID50 per serotype (2 doses given at 5 to 9 month interval) induced moderate but unbalanced Ab 
levels against the four serotypes (19). Based on these results, it was decided to evaluate a 
formulation with a higher virus concentration 5 log10 CCID50 per serotype (5555) and to introduce 
a third injection. The safety and immunogenicity of the 5555 formulation of CYD dengue vaccine 
(5 log10 CCID50 per serotype) was thus evaluated in additional Phase I trials (CYD04, CYD05, 
CYD06, CYD12). The 5555 formulation reliably induced an immune response against all 4 
serotypes after 3 injections in various populations. 
Vaccination schedule: 
The schedule was selected based on the results from phase I studies (CYD02, CYD04, CYD05, 
and CYD06) in groups receiving tetravalent vaccine at a 3-injection regimen 0,3/4,12 months in 
different age groups (children, adolescents, adults), different regions (non-endemic USA and 
Latin America, and endemic Asia Pacific) and different baseline FV status at baseline. The data 
from initial Phase I studies demonstrated that increasing the interval between injections was 
beneficial. Furthermore, the benefit of the third injection in terms of seropositivity rate was more 
marked in younger children and/or subjects who were FV non-immune at baseline. A potential 
priming effect was also observed following administration of YF vaccine (CYD06) (20). 
The choice of the final 3 dose schedule at 6 month intervals apart of the 5555 formulation was 
based on data from phase II studies, especially CYD12. The 3-dose schedule (0, 3–4, and 12 
months) and 2-dose schedule (0 and 8–9 months) were adapted to adjust for the higher 
immunogenicity that occurred when Dose 2 was delayed, balanced by providing protection as 
soon as possible. CYD12 was the first phase II study testing the final 5555 formulation with the 3 
dose schedule 0, 6, and 12 months demonstrating a satisfactory immune response to all 4

At the site, products must be kept in a secure place with restricted access. Vaccines will be stored 
in a refrigerator at a temperature ranging from +2°C to +8°C. The vaccines must not be frozen. 
The temperature must be monitored and documented (see the Operating Guidelines) for the entire 
time that the vaccine is at the trial site. In case of accidental freezing or disruption of the cold 
chain, vaccines must not be administered and must be quarantined, and the Investigator or 
authorized designee should contact the Sanofi Pasteur representative for further instructions. 
6.3.2.3 
Product Accountability 
The person in charge of product management at the site will maintain records of product delivery 
to the trial site, product inventory at the site, the dose(s) given to each subject, and the disposal of 
or return to the Sponsor of unused doses. 
The necessary information on the product labels is to be entered into the source document and the 
CRF. If applicable, information may also be entered into the subject’s vaccination card. 
The Sponsor’s monitoring staff will verify the trial site’s product accountability records against 
the record of administered doses in the CRFs. 
In case of any expected or potential shortage of product during the trial, the Investigator or an 
authorized designee should alert the Sanofi Pasteur representative as soon as possible, so that a 
shipment of extra doses can be arranged. 
6.3.3 
Replacement Doses 
If a replacement dose is required (e.g., because the syringe broke or particulate matter was observed 
in the syringe), the site personnel must follow the instructions given in the Operating Guidelines. 
6.3.4 
Disposal of Unused Products 
Unused or wasted products will be either disposed of or returned to the Sponsor in accordance 
with the instructions in the Operating Guidelines. Product accountability will be verified 
throughout the trial period.

Subject numbers will be 8 digits long, with a 3-digit center identifier and a 5-digit subject 
identifier. For example,
 
 
Subject numbers should not be reassigned for any reason.  
The Statistical Platform of the Sponsor will provide scratchable randomization lists (one per site). 
These lists will mention the randomization number of the subject and the corresponding study 
group covered by a silver-colored patch. After subject number allocation to a subject, the 
Investigator will scratch off the list to know the study group. Once scratched, each randomization 
line will be dated and signed by the Investigator or the sub-investigator in charge of administering 
the study vaccine(s). 
Each subject will be vaccinated with the product(s) corresponding to the group mentioned on the 
randomization list. If the dose initially taken for the vaccination is broken or cannot be used, the 
Investigator will take another dose of the same vaccine. 
6.6 
Treatment Compliance 
The following measures will ensure that the vaccine doses administered comply with those planned, 
and that any non-compliance is documented so that it can be accounted for in the data analyses: 
• All vaccinations will be administered by qualified trial personnel 
• The person in charge of product management at the site will maintain accountability records 
of product delivery to the trial site, product inventory at the site, dose(s) given to each subject, 
and the disposal of unused or wasted doses 
6.7 
Concomitant Medications and Other Therapies 
At the time of enrollment, ongoing medications including other therapies e.g., blood products, 
should be recorded in the source document as well as new medications prescribed for new 
medical conditions/AEs during trial participation.  
Documentation in the CRF of concomitant medication will be limited to specific categories of 
medication of interest beginning on the day of vaccination. This may include medications of 
interest that were started prior to the day of vaccination. 
Reportable medications will be collected in the CRF from the day of vaccination to the end of the 
solicited and unsolicited follow-up period (e.g., 28 days safety follow-up) as they may impact the 
response to the vaccination and impact the consistency of the information collected on 
concomitant medications at any vaccination.  
The “reportable” medications are distributed according to two categories. These are: 
• Category 1 (Restricted therapies): antipyretics, analgesics, non steroidal anti-inflammatory 
drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, and other immune modulators.  
Note: inhaled and topical steroids should not be captured. 
• 
Category 2 (Prohibited therapies for the PP):

Management of Samples 
Blood samples for the assessment of antibody responses will be collected at Visits 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 
and 8. See the Table of Study Procedures and Section 5.1.4 for details of the sampling schedule. 
7.1 
Sample Collection 
7.1.1 
Serum Samples for Neutralizing Ab Assessment 
As per Protocol Amendment 1, dengue exposed subjects who will continue in the study and 
consent to receive the remaining CYD vaccine injection will provide all blood samples as initially 
planned. All other subjects will not provide the blood samples initially planned. At Visits 1, 2, 3, 
5, 6, and 8, 4 to 6 mL of blood will be collected in tubes provided by or recommended by the 
Sponsor. Immediately prior to the blood draw, the staff member performing the procedure will 
verify the subject’s identity; will write the assigned subject’s number on the pre-printed label that 
contains that subject’s number and the sampling stage; and will attach the label to the tube. Blood 
is to be taken from the limb opposite to the one that will be used for vaccination for sequential 
injection (Group 2), or from the limb opposite to the one that will be used for CYD dengue 
vaccine injection for concomitant injection (Group 1).

Blood Sample for Virological Confirmation of Hospitalized Suspected Dengue Case 
and Assessment of Disease Severity 
In the event of hospitalized suspected dengue case, one 3 mL acute blood sample will be collected 
(within the 5 days after the fever onset) as presented in Table 7.2. The acute blood sample for all 
hospitalized suspected dengue cases should be collected within the pre-specified timeframe as 
described above. If this cannot be accomplished, this sample should still be obtained as soon as 
possible thereafter, for IDMC severity assessment. This blood sample will be used to confirm 
whether a hospitalized suspected dengue case is dengue disease or not, and upon confirmation of 
infection, to identify dengue virus serotype. 
For all hospitalized suspected dengue cases, the Investigator must ensure that key biological 
parameters (aspartate aminotransferase [AST], alanine transaminase [ALT], hematocrit and 
platelet count) have been checked or are planned to be checked as part of local standard of care at 
the hospital (ideally within the 5 days after the fever onset). If these parameters have not been 
measured, additional blood specimens will be taken. The aim of these tests is the assessment of 
severity according to the WHO/IDMC classification (see Section 9.2.3 for more details). 
Table 7.2 presents the additional serum aliquots to be taken from subject with hospitalized 
suspected dengue case at any time during the trial. Additional details are found in the Operating 
Guidelines.

(24).  
7.1.4 
Urine Samples 
Urine samples for pregnancy tests at the vaccination visits (V01, V02 [Group 2], V04, V05 
[Group 2], and V07) will be taken and analyzed at the trial center only for women of childbearing 
potential. 
7.2 
Sample Preparation 
Detailed instructions on how to prepare blood samples for assessment of antibody response are 
contained in the Operating Guidelines provided to the site. An overview of the procedures is 
provided here. 
Following the blood draw, the sampling tube should be stored at room temperature for a minimum 
of 60 minutes and a maximum of 2 hours to allow the blood to clot before centrifugation. The 
tube must be stored vertically and will not be shaken. 
Beyond 2 hours, the sampling tube must be refrigerated at a temperature of +2°C to +8°C and 
must be centrifuged within a maximum of 24 hours. 
After clotting and centrifugation, the serum will be harvested and divided into appropriate number 
of aliquots. Samples will then be handled one subject at a time to avoid a mix-up of subjects’ 
blood tubes. Serum will be transferred to the appropriate number of tubes, pre-labeled with 
adhesive labels that clearly identify the subject’s number and sampling stage or visit number. 
The subject’s identification number and code, the date of sampling, the number of aliquots 
obtained, and the date and time of preparation are to be specified on a sample identification list. 
Space is provided on this list for comments on the quality of samples.

Serum will be aliquoted in tubes which are specified in the Operating Guidelines. Aliquots will be 
frozen immediately at -20°C or below until testing. 
7.3 
Sample Storage and Shipment 
During storage, serum tubes are to be kept in a freezer whose temperature is set and maintained at 
-20°C or below. The temperature will be monitored and documented on the appropriate form 
during the entire trial. If it rises above -10°C for any period of time, the Clinical Logistics 
Coordinator must be notified. See the Operating Guidelines for further details. 
Shipments to the laboratories will be made only after appropriate monitoring, and following 
notification of the Clinical Logistics Coordinator. Sera will be shipped frozen, using dry ice to 
maintain them in a frozen state, in the packaging container provided by the carrier. Again, 
temperatures will be monitored. Shipments must be compliant with the International Air 
Transport Association (IATA) 602 regulations. 
Samples will be shipped to GCI at Sanofi Pasteur. The address is provided in the Operating 
Guidelines. 
7.4 
Future Use of Stored Serum Samples for Research 
Any unused part of the serum samples will be securely stored at the Sanofi Pasteur serology 
laboratory (GCI) for at least 5 years after the last license approval in the relevant market areas has 
been obtained for the vaccine being tested. 
Subjects or subjects’ parents/legally representatives will be asked to indicate in the ICF whether 
they will permit the future use of any unused stored serum samples for other tests. If they refuse 
permission, the samples will not be used for any testing other than that directly related to this 
study. If they agree to this use, they will not be paid for giving permission (anonymity of samples 
will be ensured). The aim of any possible future research is unknown today, and may not be 
related to this particular study. It may be to improve the knowledge of vaccines or infectious 
diseases, or to improve laboratory methods. Genetic tests will never be performed on these 
samples without individual informed consent.

Clinical Supplies 
Sanofi Pasteur will supply the trial sites with protocols, ICFs, AF, CRFs, DCs, memory aids, and 
other trial documents, as well as with the following trial materials: all study vaccines and injection 
materials, blood collection tubes, cryotubes, cryotube storage boxes, cryotube labels, temperature 
recorders, shipping containers, rulers, and digital thermometers. 
The means for performing Electronic Data Capture (EDC) will be defined by Sanofi Pasteur. If a 
computer is provided by Sanofi Pasteur, it will be retrieved at the end of the trial. 
The Investigator will supply all vaccination supplies, phlebotomy, and centrifugation equipment, 
including biohazard and/or safety supplies. The biohazard and safety supplies include needles and 
syringes, examination gloves, laboratory coats, sharps disposal containers, and absorbent

accordance with local practices. The Investigator will also supply appropriate space in a 
temperature-monitored refrigerator for the storage of the products and for the blood samples, and 
appropriate space in a temperature-monitored freezer for serum aliquots. 
In the event that additional supplies are required, study staff must contact Sanofi Pasteur, 
indicating the quantity required. Contact information is provided in the Operating Guidelines. 
They must allow approximately 1 week for an order to be filled and to have the supplies sent to 
their site.

Endpoints and Assessment Methods 
9.1 
Primary Endpoints and Assessment Methods 
9.1.1 
Immunogenicity 
9.1.1.1 
Immunogenicity endpoints 
The primary endpoint(s) for the evaluation of immunogenicity are: 
Cervarix immunogenicity 
• Ab levels (measured by ELISA) against each Cervarix HPV antigen (HPV-16 and HPV-18) 
28 days after the last dose of Cervarix in dengue exposed subjects 
CYD dengue vaccine immunogenicity 
• Neutralizing Ab levels (measured by dengue plaque reduction neutralization test [PRNT50]) 
against each of the four parental dengue virus serotypes of CYD dengue vaccine (1, 2, 3, 4) 
28 days after the last dose of CYD dengue vaccine in dengue exposed subjects 
Definition of dengue serostatus 
The dengue serostatus at baseline is defined as the presence of Abs against at least one dengue 
serotype in the baseline sample (by dengue 50% plaque reduction neutralization test [PRNT50) in 
the blood sample collected at V01 (BL1) from all subjects. The baseline dengue status variable 
will be calculated for each subject as follows: 
• Dengue immune subjects (dengue exposed) at baseline are defined as those subjects with titers 
≥10 (1/dil) for at least one serotype with the parental dengue virus strain  
• Dengue non-immune subjects (dengue unexposed) at baseline are defined as those subjects 
with titers <10 (1/dil) (not quantified) for all serotypes with parental dengue virus strains with 
available “valid” results (i.e. different from missing or ”NR”)  
The baseline dengue status will be set to missing when the titer for any serotypes with parental 
dengue virus is either missing or not quantified. If the titer for all serotypes with parental dengue 
virus is either missing or not quantified, the dengue status is non-immune.

In case of limited serum volume, the priority will be given to the testing of the dengue serostatus 
at baseline testing over the other testing (HPV immunogenicity post Cervarix may be not 
performed if not enough blood volume). 
9.1.1.2 
Immunogenicity Assessment Methods 
HPV Abs 
The Ab response to HPV will be performed at Sanofi Pasteur GCI, Swiftwater, USA, or GCI 
outsourced laboratory. The HPV16/18 virus-like particle-based enzyme linked immunosorbent 
assay (VLP-ELISA) is performed using serial dilutions of serum samples and standards added to 
HPV VLP-coated ELISA microtiter plates. A peroxidase-conjugated anti-human IgG polyclonal 
antibody, enzyme substrate, and chromogen are added; reactions are then stopped. Optical density 
(OD) at 620 nm (background) is read and subtracted from OD at 450 nm. Antibody levels in 
ELISA units (EU)/mL are calculated by interpolating OD values from the standard curve. 
This assay will be performed on blood samples taken from V01, V02 and V05. 
Dengue Neutralizing Abs 
Dengue neutralizing Ab levels will be measured by PRNT50 (using parental dengue virus strains 
of CYD dengue vaccine constructs) by Sanofi Pasteur GCI, Swiftwater, USA (or outsourced with 
a GCI selected external laboratory). 
Serial, two-fold dilutions of serum to be tested (previously heat-inactivated) are mixed with a 
constant challenge-dose of each dengue virus serotype 1, 2, 3 or 4 (expressed as plaque-forming 
unit [PFU]/mL). The mixtures are inoculated into wells of a microplate with confluent Vero cell 
monolayers. After adsorption, cell monolayers are incubated for a few days. The presence of 
dengue virus infected cells is indicated by formation of plaques. A reduction in virus infectivity 
due to neutralization by Ab present in serum samples is detected. The reported value (end point 
neutralization titer) represents the highest dilution of serum at which ≥ 50% of dengue challenge 
virus (in plaque counts) is neutralized when compared to the mean viral plaque count in the 
negative control wells which represents the 100% virus load. The end point neutralization titers 
are presented as continuous values. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of the assay is 
10 (1/dilution [dil]). 
This assay will be performed on each blood samples taken at V01 (Group 1 only), V02, V03 
(Group 2 only), V05 (Group 1 only), V06 (Group 2 only), and V08.

Secondary Endpoints and Assessment Methods 
9.2.1 
Immunogenicity 
9.2.1.1 
Immunogenicity Endpoints 
Cervarix immunogenicity: 
• Ab levels (measured by ELISA) against each Cervarix HPV antigen (HPV-16 and HPV-18) at 
baseline and after each dose of Cervarix in dengue exposed subjects 
• Seroconversion against each Cervarix HPV antigen (HPV-16 and HPV-18) 28 days after each 
dose of Cervarix in dengue exposed subjects 
Seroconversion is defined as changing serostatus from seronegative at baseline to seropositive 
(> LLOQ of the assay) or ≥ 4-fold rise in Ab titer if seropositive at baseline.  
CYD dengue vaccine immunogenicity: 
• Neutralizing Ab titers against each of the four parental dengue virus serotypes of CYD dengue 
vaccine as determined by PRNT50 at baseline and after each dose of CYD dengue vaccine in 
dengue exposed subjects 
• Neutralizing Ab titers ≥ 10 (1/dil) against each of the four and against at least 1, 2, 3, or 4 
parental dengue virus serotypes of CYD dengue vaccine as determined by PRNT50 at baseline 
and after each dose of CYD dengue vaccine in dengue exposed subjects 
• Neutralizing Ab titers ≥ different titer thresholds (1/dil) against each parental dengue virus 
serotype of CYD dengue vaccine as determined by PRNT50 at baseline and after each dose of 
CYD dengue vaccine in dengue exposed subjects

Safety Definitions 
The following definitions are taken from the ICH E2A Guideline for Clinical Safety Data 
Management: Definitions and Standards for Expedited Reporting. 
Adverse Event (AE): 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject 
administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal 
relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign 
(including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom or disease temporally

associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal 
product.  
Therefore an AE may be: 
• A new illness 
• The worsening of a concomitant illness 
• An effect of the vaccination, including the comparator 
• A combination of the above 
All AEs include serious and non-serious AEs. 
Surgical procedures are not AEs; they are the action taken to treat a medical condition. It is the 
condition leading to the action taken that is the AE (if it occurs during the trial period). 
Pre-existing medical conditions are not to be reported as AEs. However, if a pre-existing 
condition worsens in frequency or intensity, or if in the assessment of the treating physician there 
is a change in its clinical significance, this change should be reported as an AE (exacerbation). 
This applies equally to recurring episodes of pre-existing conditions (e.g., asthma) if the 
frequency or intensity increases post-vaccination. 
Serious Adverse Event (SAE): 
Serious and severe are not synonymous. The term severe is often used to describe the intensity of 
a specific event as corresponding to Grade 3. This is not the same as serious which is based on 
patient / event outcome or action criteria usually associated with events that pose a threat to a 
patient’s life or functioning. Seriousness, not severity, serves as a guide for defining regulatory 
reporting obligations. 
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose  
• Results in death 
• Is life-threateninga 
• Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalizationb 
• Results in persistent or significant disability / incapacityc 
• Is a congenital anomaly / birth defect 
                                                 
a  The term “life-threatening” refers to an event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it 
does not refer to an event which hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe. 
b  All medical events leading to hospitalizations will be recorded and reported as SAEs, with the exception of: 
hospitalization planned before inclusion into the study or out-patient treatment with no hospitalization.  
c  “Persistent or significant disability or incapacity” means that there is a substantial disruption of a person’s ability 
to carry out normal life functions.

• Is an important medical eventa 
Additionally, the following important medical events are to be considered as SAEs and reported 
to the Sponsor according to the procedure described in Section 10: 
Adverse Reaction (AR): 
All noxious and unintended responses to a medicinal product related to any dose should be 
considered ARs. 
(The phrase “responses to a medicinal product” means that a causal relationship between a 
medicinal product and an AE is at least a reasonable possibility) 
Unexpected Adverse Reaction (UAR): 
An UAR is an AR, the nature or severity of which is not consistent with the applicable product 
information (e.g., Investigator’s Brochure for an unapproved investigational medicinal product).  
The following additional definitions are used by Sanofi Pasteur: 
Solicited Reaction: 
A solicited reaction is an event that is prelisted in the CRF. The assessment of these AEs post-
vaccination is mandatory. A solicited reaction is defined by a combination of: 
• Symptom and 
• Onset post-vaccination 
e.g., injection site pain between D0 and D7 post-vaccination, or headache between D0 and D14. 
A solicited reaction is therefore an AR observed and reported under the conditions (symptom and 
onset) prelisted (ie, solicited) in the CRF and considered as related to vaccination. 
Unsolicited AE/AR: 
An unsolicited AE is an observed AE that does not fulfill the conditions prelisted in the CRF in 
terms of diagnosis and / or onset post-vaccination, ie, excluding solicited reactions, e.g., if 
headache between D0 and D14 is a solicited reaction (ie, prelisted in the CRF), then a headache 
starting on D14 is a solicited reaction, whereas headache starting on D15 post-vaccination is an 
unsolicited AE. 
An unsolicited non-serious AE is an unsolicited AE excluding SAEs. 
                                                 
a  Medical and scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether expedited reporting is appropriate in 
other situations, such as important medical events that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death 
or hospitalization but may jeopardize the health of the subject or may require intervention to prevent one of the 
other outcomes listed in the definition above. These should also usually be considered serious. Examples of such 
events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home, blood 
dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in inpatient hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse, new onset diabetes, or autoimmune disease.

Injection Site Reaction: 
An injection site reactiona is an AR at and around the injection site. Injection site reactions are 
commonly inflammatory reactions.  
Systemic AE: 
Systemic AEs are all AEs that are not injection site reactions. They therefore include systemic 
manifestations such as headache, fever, as well as localized or topical manifestations that are not 
associated with the vaccination site, e.g., erythema that is localized but that is not at the injection 
site. 
Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs): 
AEs of special interest are AEs that are considered by the Sponsor to be relevant for the 
monitoring of the safety profile of the investigational vaccine. 
9.2.2.2 
Safety Endpoints 
Cervarix and CYD dengue vaccine safety in each group: 
• Occurrence of immediate AEs reported within 30 minutes after each and any injection 
• Occurrence of solicited (ie, pre-listed in the subject’s DC and CRF) injection site reactions 
(pain, erythema, and swelling) occurring up to 7 days after each and any injection 
• Occurrence of solicited systemic reactions (fever, headache, malaise, myalgia, and asthenia) 
occurring up to 14 days after each and any injection 
• Occurrence of unsolicited AEs occurring up to 28 days after each and any injection 
• Occurrence of non-serious AESIs* reported within 7 days following each and any injection 
• Occurrence of SAEs, including serious AESIs (with specific time windows according to the 
type of AESI*) throughout the trial 
• Occurrence of hospitalized VCD cases throughout the trial (ie, from D0 through end of the 
study) 
*Hypersensitivity/allergic reactions (serious or not) within 7 days after each CYD dengue vaccine 
injection, serious viscerotropic disease within 30 days after each CYD dengue vaccine injection, 
serious neurotropic disease within 30 days after each CYD dengue vaccine injection; serious 
dengue cases requiring hospitalization will be reported during the entire study. 
Depending on the item, these could include: nature (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities 
[MedDRA] preferred term), time of onset, duration, number of days of occurrence, Grade of

severity, relationship to vaccine, action taken, whether the event/reaction led to early termination 
from the study, seriousness, or outcome. 
Hospitalized suspected dengue case is defined as an acute febrile illness with diagnosis of dengue 
requiring hospitalization (with bed attribution). In such cases, 1 unplanned acute blood sample 
(within the first 5 days after fever onset) will be collected for virological confirmation of 
hospitalized suspected dengue case. A suspected case will be considered VCD if there is a 
detection of WT dengue virus by dengue NS1 Ag ELISA and/or dengue RT-PCRs (at the GCI or 
GCI designated laboratory).  
Note: Acute blood sample for all hospitalized suspected dengue cases should be collected within 
the pre-specified timeframe as described above. If this cannot be accomplished, this sample 
should still be obtained as soon as possible thereafter, for IDMC severity assessment. 
9.2.2.3 
Safety Assessment Methods 
At each visit, the Investigator or a delegate will perform a clinical or medically-driven physical 
examination, and will ask the subject or legally acceptable representative about any solicited 
reactions and unsolicited AEs recorded in the DC or MA, as well as about any other AEs that may 
have occurred since the previous visit. All relevant data will be transcribed into the CRF 
according to the instructions provided by the Sponsor. 
9.2.2.3.1 
Immediate Post-vaccination Surveillance Period 
Subjects will be kept under observation for 30 minutes after each vaccination to ensure their 
safety. The post-vaccination surveillance should be documented in the source document. Any AE 
that occurs during this period will be noted on the source document and recorded in the CRF, as 
follows: 
• 
Any unsolicited systemic AE occurring during the first 30 minutes post-vaccination will 
be recorded on the CRF as immediate unsolicited systemic AE 
• 
Solicited and unsolicited injection site reactions and solicited systemic reactions will be 
recorded and analyzed as starting on the day of vaccination 
• 
Any SAE occurred during the first 30 minutes post-vaccination will be reported in the 
same way as any other SAE and to the Sponsor, according to the procedures described in 
Section 10

Reactions) or Day 14 (Systemic Reactions) After Each Vaccination 
After each vaccination, subjects or legally acceptable representatives will be provided with a 
safety DC, a digital thermometer, and a flexible ruler, and will be instructed how to use them. The 
following items will be recorded by the subjects in the DC on the day of vaccination and for the 
next 7 days (ie, D0 to D7) for the solicited injection site reactions and for the next 14 days (ie, D0 
to D14) for the solicited systemic reactions, until resolution:

Important notes for the accurate assessment of temperature: 
Subjects or legally acceptable representatives are to measure body temperature once per day, 
preferably always at the same time. The optimal time for measurement is the evening, when body 
temperature is the highest. Temperature is also to be measured at the time of any apparent fever. 
The observed daily temperature and the route of measurement are to be recorded in the DC/MA, 
and the highest temperature will be recorded by the site in the CRF. The preferred route for this 
trial is axillary. Pre-vaccination temperature is also systematically collected by the Investigator in 
the CRF for subjects aged between 0 and 11 years old, and on the source document for other 
subjects. Tympanic thermometers must not be used. 
9.2.2.3.3 
Unsolicited Non-serious Adverse Events From Day 0 to Day 28 After Each 
Vaccination 
In addition to recording solicited reactions, subjects or legally acceptable representatives will be 
instructed to record any other medical events that may occur during the 28-day period after each 
vaccination to be taken as per the trial design. Space will be provided in the DC for this purpose.  
For each unsolicited non-serious AE, the following information is to be recorded: 
• Start and stop datesa  
• Intensity of the event: 
• 
For measurable unsolicited non-serious AEs that are part of the list of solicited reactions, 
the size of the AE as well as the temperature for fever will be collected and analyzed 
based on the corresponding scale used for solicited reactions (see Table 9.1 to Table 9.3) 
• 
Other unsolicited non-serious AEs will be classified according to the following intensity 
scale: 
• 
Grade 1: No interference with activity 
• 
Grade 2: Some interference with activity 
• 
Grade 3: Significant; prevents daily activity 
• Action taken for each AE, if any (e.g., medication) 
The action taken by the subject or legally acceptable representative to treat any unsolicited AEs 
will be classified in the CRF using the following scale: 
0: None 
1: Medication (self-medication with an existing prescription or over-the-counter medication) 
2: Health care provider contact (no new medication prescribed) 
                                                 
a The stop date of all related AEs will be actively solicited. For other events, the investigator will provide the stop 
date when it becomes available. AEs for which no stop date was obtained during the course of the trial will be 
considered as ongoing at the end of the trial.

9.2.2.3.4 
Serious Adverse Events 
Information on SAEs will be collected and assessed throughout the trial, from inclusion until 6 
months after the last vaccination. 
Any SAE occurring at any time during the trial will be reported by the Investigator through the 
EDC system and according to the completion guidelines provided by the Sponsor. All information 
concerning the SAE is to be reported, either as part of the initial reporting or during follow-up 
reporting if relevant information became available later (e.g., outcome, medical history, results of 
investigations, copy of hospitalization reports. The Investigator will assess the causal relationship 
between the SAE and the investigational product as either “Not related” or “Related”, as described 
in Section 10.4. 
See Section 10 for further details on SAE reporting. 
9.2.2.3.5 
Adverse Events of Special Interest 
The following AESIs will be considered: 
Non-Serious AESIs 
• Non-serious hypersensitivity/allergic reactions occurring in all subjects within 7 days after 
vaccination. 
Serious AESIs 
• Serious hypersensitivity/allergic reactions occurring in all subjects within 7 days after CYD

9.2.2.3.6 
Assessment of Causality  
The Investigator will assess the causal relationship between each unsolicited systemic AE and 
vaccination as either not related or related, based on the following definitionsa: 
0: Not related – The AE is clearly / most probably caused by other etiologies such as 
subject’s underlying condition, therapeutic intervention, or concomitant therapy; or the 
delay between vaccination and the onset of the AE is incompatible with a causal 
relationship; or the AE started before vaccination (screening phase, if applicable) 
1:  Related – There is a “reasonable possibility” that the AE was caused by the vaccination, 
meaning that there is evidence or arguments to suggest a causal relationship 
Note: By convention, all injection site AEs (solicited and unsolicited) and all solicited systemic 
reactions are considered to be related to vaccination and referred to as reactions, and therefore do 
not require the Investigator’s opinion on relatedness. 
AEs likely to be related to the product, whether serious or not, that persist at the end of the trial 
will be followed up by the Investigator until their complete disappearance or the stabilization of 
the subject’s condition. The Investigator will inform the Sponsor of the date of final 
disappearance of the event. 
9.2.3 
Methods for Assessing Virological Confirmation of Hospitalized Suspected Dengue 
Case and Assessment of Disease Severity 
In the event of a hospitalized suspected dengue case, the following tests will be performed on the 
acute blood sample based on the process described below. 
Dengue Screen RT-PCR 
Dengue screen RT-PCR test will be performed by Sanofi Pasteur GCI, Swiftwater, USA or GCI 
designated laboratory. 
Assessment and quantitation of dengue viremia is determined by testing serum samples with a 
nucleic-acid based assay. RNA is extracted from the serum to discard potential Taq polymerase 
inhibitors or interfering factors, using a commercial kit. Then, a RT-PCR is carried out with 
primers from a gene sequence conserved among dengue viruses. Due to a virus standard included 
in each run, results can be expressed as a concentration of log10 PFU/mL 
Dengue NS1 Ag ELISA  
The NS1 Ag ELISA will be performed using a commercially available kit: “PlateliaTM Dengue 
NS1 Ag” from Bio-Rad (Marnes-la-Coquette, France). The manufacturer’s instructions are 
followed. The Dengue NS1 Ag test is a one-step sandwich-ELISA based assay that enables 
detection of NS1 Ag in serum. The test uses murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) for capture 
and revelation. Samples and controls are directly and simultaneously incubated with the conjugate

within the microplate wells coated with MAb. If NS1 Ag is present in the sample, an immune-
complex MAb-NS1-MAb/peroxidase will be formed. The presence of immune-complex is 
demonstrated by addition of a chromogenic solution that initiates a color development reaction. 
After 30 minutes of incubation at room temperature, the enzymatic reaction is stopped by addition 
of an acid solution. The optical density (OD) reading obtained with a spectrophotometer set at 
450/620 nm is proportional to the amount of NS1 Ag present in the sample. The presence of NS1 
Ag in an individual sample is determined by comparing the OD reading of the sample to the OD 
of the cutoff control serum. 
Sample ratios of < 0.5, ≥ 0.5 to < 1.0, and > 1.0 will be indicative of negative, equivocal, and 
positive results, respectively. 
SimplexaTM Dengue RT-PCR 
Serotype identification of post-infectious dengue viremia is determined by testing serum samples 
with a nucleic-acid based assay. Briefly, RNA is extracted from the serum to discard potential 
polymerase inhibitors or interfering factors, using a commercial kit. Then the Simplexa dengue 
RT-PCR assay is carried out which incorporates serotype-specific primers from dengue 
sequences. The results are expressed qualitatively and reported for each dengue serotype as 
detected or not detected.  
This assay will be used on all DS RT-PCR positive or Dengue NS1 Ag ELISA positive samples 
for serotype identification. In addition sequencing analysis may be attempted on isolates from the 
serotyped samples. 
Interpretation of Results 
If a sample is positive for the dengue screen RT-PCR (ie, ≥ LLOQ) and/or the NS1 assay is 
positive and/or the Simplexa™ dengue RT-PCR is positive, this will be classified as a 
virologically-confirmed dengue infection (ie, the associated AE will be considered as a 
hospitalized VCD case). 
Hematology – Biochemistry 
Hematology and biochemistry parameters (AST, ALT, creatinine, blood cell count, total bilirubin, 
and hematocrit count) will be measured by local laboratories using standard methods as per 
routine standard of care in Mexico. However, the measurement of any of these biological 
parameters may be undertaken (or repeated), based on the Investigator’s judgment, to ensure the 
adequate evaluation of hospitalized VCD case severity. It is noteworthy that hematocrit and 
platelet counts are required parameters in the WHO/IDMC severity assessment protocol. The 
results will be collected in the CRF. 
The assessment of biological parameters will be: within normal range or outside normal range. 
Normal ranges for each biological parameter will be provided by the local laboratory and 
collected in the CRF.

Severity of hospitalized VCD cases 
Each hospitalized VCD case will be assessed for severity by an IDMC. 
The following potential manifestations of severity in all hospitalized VCD cases will be 
considered: 
1) Platelet count ≤ 100,000 µL and bleeding (tourniquet, petechiae or any bleeding) plus plasma 
leakage (effusion on chest x-ray or clinically apparent ascites including imaging procedures 
or hematocrit ≥ 20% above baseline recovery level or standard for age if only one reading) 
2) Shock (pulse pressure ≤ 20 mmHg in a child, or hypotension [≤ 90 mmHg] with tachycardia, 
weak pulse and poor perfusion) 
3) Bleeding requiring blood transfusion 
4) Encephalopathy ie, unconsciousness or poor conscious state or fitting not attributable to 
simple febrile convulsion or focal neurological signs. Poor conscious state or 
unconsciousness must be supported by Glasgow Coma Scale or Blantyre Coma score  
5) Liver impairment (AST > 1000 U/L or prothrombin time International normalized ratio > 1.5) 
6) Impaired kidney function (Serum creatinine ≥ 1.5 mg/dL) 
7) Myocarditis, pericarditis or heart failure (clinical heart failure) supported by chest X-ray, 
echocardiography, electrocardiogram or cardiac enzymes where these are available 
8) Every effort must be made to identify and document any existing chronic co-morbidity, such 
as uncontrolled epilepsy, chronic liver disease, of existing cardiac disease or acute co-
morbidity, such as acute hepatitis. 
The designation of such cases as severe or otherwise will be made on a case by case basis by the 
IDMC.

Observational Endpoints and Assessment Methods 
There are no observational objectives in this study. 
10 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events  
In order to comply with current regulations on SAE reporting to health authorities, the 
Investigator must document all SAEs regardless of causal relationship, and notify the Sponsor and 
the Clinical Research Associate (CRA) and/or the Regional Clinical Trial Manager (RCTM) 
within the notification timelines stated in the following sections. The Investigator will give access 
and provide the Sponsor and the CRA and/or the RCTM with all necessary information to allow 
the Sponsor to conduct a detailed analysis of the safety of the investigational product(s). It is the 
responsibility of the Investigator to request all necessary documentation (e.g., medical records,

discharge summary, autopsy) in order to provide comprehensive safety information. All relevant 
information must then be transcribed into the SAE Reporting Form. 
10.1 Initial Reporting by the Investigator 
SAEs occurring during a subject’s participation in the trial or experiment must be reported within 
24 hours to the Sponsor’s GPV Department and to the CRA. Every SAE must be reported, even if 
the Investigator considers that it is not related to the vaccine. The SAE form must be signed by a 
licensed physician (M.D. or D.O.) for whom the task is listed on the Study Task Delegation and 
Signature List after each update to the Form. 
The Investigator must complete the “eSAE Form” in the EDC application. After validation, an e-
mail alert will automatically be sent to the GPV mailbox, the CRA, the Global Medical Expert. 
This message will include the country, the study code, the subject number, whether the report is 
initial or a follow-up, the diagnosis and / or symptoms, the seriousness criteria, and the outcome, 
if fatal. 
If the EDC system is unavailable, the site must notify the Sponsor using the paper version of the 
SAE Reporting Form, as follows: 
The Investigator must complete the SAE Reporting Form, check off the “Initial Reporting Form” 
box, and send it to the Sponsor by one of the following means: 
• By fax, to the following number: 
 
• In PDF format to the following e-mail address, using a method of transmission that includes 
password protection: 
 
• By express mail, to the following address: 
• Sanofi Pasteur 
Global PharmacoVigilance Department 
14, Espace Henry Vallée 
69007 Lyon France 
When the system becomes available, the Investigator must transcribe the information from the 
paper version of the eSAE Form into the EDC system. 
If there is need for urgent consultation, the Investigator is to contact a designated Sponsor 
representative. The contact information is provided in the “Investigators and Other Important 
Study Participants” document.  
10.2 Follow-up Reporting by the Investigator 
The eSAE Form completed initially must be updated within 24 hours after the Investigator has 
become aware of any new relevant information concerning the SAE (e.g., outcome, precise 
description of medical history, results of the investigation). After validation, an e-mail alert will 
be sent automatically to the GPV Department and to the CRA and/or the RCTM. All relevant 
information must be included directly in the eSAE form. Copies of documents (e.g., medical 
records, discharge summary, autopsy) may be requested by the GPV Department.

The anonymity of the subject must always be respected when forwarding this information. 
10.3 Reporting of SAEs Occurring After a Subject Has Completed the Study 
Any SAE that occurs after a subject has completed the study but that is likely to be related to the 
product or to the experiment must also be reported as soon as possible. In such a case, the 
reporting procedure to be followed is identical to that described in Section 10.1. 
10.4 Assessment of Causality 
The causal relationship between the SAE and the product will first be evaluated by the 
Investigator, using the following definitions: 
0 - Not related: The AE is clearly / most probably caused by other etiologies such as an 
underlying condition, therapeutic intervention, or concomitant therapy; or the delay between 
vaccination and the onset of the SAE is incompatible with a causal relationship; or the SAE 
started before vaccination (screening phase, if applicable). 
1 - Related: There is a “reasonable possibility” that the SAE was caused by the vaccination, 
meaning that there is evidence or arguments to suggest a causal relationship. 
(ICH Guidelines, Clinical Safety Data Management E2A) 
Following this, the Sponsor’s Product Safety Officer (PSO) will also assess the causal relationship 
to the product, based on the available information and current medical knowledge. 
The decision to modify or discontinue the trial may be made after mutual agreement between the 
Sponsor and the Investigator(s). 
10.5 Reporting SAEs to Health Authorities and IECs / IRBs 
The Sponsor will inform the relevant health authorities of any reportable SAEs according to the 
local regulatory requirements. Reporting to the health authorities will be according to the 
Sponsor’s standard operating procedures. 
The Sponsor’s Responsible Medical Officer (RMO) will notify the Investigators in writing of the 
occurrence of any reportable SAEs. The Investigators/Sponsor will be responsible for informing 
the IECs or IRBs that reviewed the trial protocol. 
11 Data Collection and Management 
11.1 Data Collection and CRF Completion 
Individual safety DCs, specifically designed for this trial by the Sponsor and provided to the study 
sites, will be given to study participants for the recording of daily safety information as described 
in Section 9.2.2.3. These DCs will include prelisted terms and intensity scales (see Table 9.1 to

Table 9.3) as well as areas for free text to capture additional safety information or other relevant 
details. Subjects or legally acceptable representatives will also be provided with rulers for 
measuring the size of injection site reactions, and with standard digital thermometers for 
measuring daily temperatures. To ensure consistency of reporting, the study sites will instruct 
subjects or legally acceptable representatives on how to correctly use these tools. 
The 6-month follow-up will be done by interviewing subjects either during a visit or over the 
telephone using a questionnaire to capture SAEs and AEs of particular interest, if applicable. A 
memory aid will be provided to the subjects at the preceding trial visit to help them record 
information on events occurring between this visit and the 6-month follow-up. 
Relevant information will be transcribed into the CRF. Any SAEs captured during this 6-month 
follow-up period will be reported and followed-up as per the normal process for reporting SAEs. 
The clinical team may decide to replace the memory aid by a DC if a follow-up visit is planned 
for the subjects. 
At specified intervals, the Investigator or an authorized designee will interview the subjects or 
legally acceptable representatives to collect the information recorded in the DC, and will attempt 
to clarify anything that is incomplete or unclear. All clinical trial information gathered by the 
study site will be reported electronically by the Investigator or authorized designee using a web-
based CRF (Any information that was not documented in the DC will first be captured in the 
source document and then reported electronically). The CRF has been designed specifically for 
this trial under the responsibility of the Sponsor, using a validated Electronic Records/Electronic 
Signature-compliant platform (21 CFR Part 11). 
To ensure the correct and consistent completion of the CRFs, the Sponsor or authorized 
representative will provide all necessary tools, instructions, and training to all site staff involved 
in data entry prior to study start. Additional instructional documents such as training manuals and 
completion guidelines will be provided to assist with data entry during the course of the trial. 
Upon completion of training, each user requiring access to the EDC system will be issued a 
unique username and password. In the event of a change in trial personnel, each newly assigned 
individual will receive a unique username and password; the username and password of a 
previous user may not be reissued. If any trial personnel leave the study, the Investigator is 
responsible for informing the Sponsor immediately so that their access is deactivated. An audit 
trail will be initiated in the EDC system at the time of the first data entry in order to track all 
modifications and to ensure database integrity. 
The Investigator is responsible for the timeliness, completeness, and accuracy of the information 
in the CRFs; must provide explanations for all missing information; and must sign the CRF using 
an e-signature. 
11.2 Data Management

• Clinical data, defined as all data reported in the CRF, and laboratory data will be handled by 
the Sponsor’s Clinical Data Management (CDM) platform or authorized representative. 
• Data pertaining to SAEs and pregnancies, which are reported by the Investigator respectively 
on the eSAE Forms or SAE Reporting Forms and e-Pregnancy forms, will be handled by the 
Sponsor’s GPV Department. 
During the trial, clinical data reported in the CRFs will be integrated into the clinical database 
under the responsibility of the Sanofi Pasteur CDM platform. Data monitoring at the sites and 
quality control in the form of computerized logic and / or consistency checks will be 
systematically applied in order to detect errors or omissions. In addition, data reviews may be 
performed several times by the Sponsor’s staff in the course of the trial. Any questions pertaining 
to the reported clinical data will be submitted to the investigator for resolution using the EDC 
system. Each step of this process will be monitored through the implementation of individual 
passwords to maintain appropriate database access and to ensure database integrity. 
The validation of the immunogenicity data will be performed at the laboratory level following the 
laboratory’s procedures. Information from the laboratory will be checked for consistency before 
integration into the clinical database. 
After integration of all corrections in the complete set of data, and after the SAE information 
available from CDM and the GPV Department has been reconciled, the database will be released for 
statistical analysis. 
Data Management of SAEs and Pregnancies 
During the trial, data pertaining to SAEs reported on eSAE Forms and data pertaining to 
pregnancies reported in e-Pregnancy form will be integrated into the Sponsor’s centralized GPV 
database. 
Upon receipt of an eSAE Form, the data will be entered into the GPV database after a duplicate 
check. Each SAE case will be assigned a case identification number. Each case will be entered in 
the GPV database and assessed by the case management platform or its delegate before being 
reported to the relevant authorities as necessary. Assessment of related cases will be done in 
collaboration with the PSO and the RMO. Follow-up information concerning a completed case 
will be entered into the GPV database, and a new version of the case will be created. 
The information pertaining to SAEs in the GPV database will be reconciled with that in the 
clinical database. 
11.3 Data Review 
A review of the data is anticipated through the data review process led by Data Management 
before each database lock.

12 Statistical Methods and Determination of Sample Size 
12.1 Statistical Methods 
All statistical analyses will be performed under the responsibility of the Sponsor’s Biostatistics 
Platform using the SAS® software, at least Version 9.4 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). 
A detailed Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) will be written before the database lock. In accordance 
with the protocol, the SAP will describe all analyses to be performed, statistical tables, and 
listings including descriptions of the analysis conventions used. 
In a general way, non-inferiority testing will be performed on dengue-exposed subjects. The tests 
will be done only if the number of evaluable subjects provides a global power of at least 80% for 
the co-primary objectives and secondary objective. In case the global power is insufficient to 
perform non-inferiority testing, only descriptive analyses will be performed. 
Only descriptive analyses will be conducted in unexposed subjects and in the overall population.  
12.1.1 Hypotheses and Statistical Methods for Primary Objective(s) 
12.1.1.1 Hypotheses 
Non-inferiority on Cervarix 
The objective is to demonstrate that the humoral immune response to the Cervarix administered 
concomitantly with CYD dengue vaccine is non-inferior to the immune response to Cervarix 
administered sequentially with CYD dengue vaccine. 
Individual hypotheses on Cervarix response for each antigen: 
A non-inferiority testing approach will be used to compare geometric mean of titer (GMTs) for 
the 2 antigens (HPV-16 and HPV-18) 28 days after the last dose of Cervarix, based on the 
following individual hypotheses: 
 
with:  
i, antigen (HPV-16 and HPV-18) 
δ non-inferiority limit is set at 2, ie, 0.301 (=log10[2]), for each antigen “i”  
Non-inferiority for antigen i will be demonstrated if the lower bound of the 2-sided 
95% confidence interval (CI) is greater than -δ (α=2.5% one-sided). 
Global hypotheses for non-inferiority on Cervarix response 
The global hypotheses are:

H0G: Non inferiority of Cervarix co-administered with CYD dengue vaccine versus Cervarix 
administered sequentially with CYD dengue vaccine is not demonstrated for at least one 
antigen. 
H1G: Non-inferiority of Cervarix co-administered with CYD dengue vaccine versus Cervarix 
administered sequentially with CYD dengue vaccine is demonstrated for all the antigens. 
 
 
Non-inferiority on CYD Dengue Vaccine 
The objective is to demonstrate that the humoral immune response to the CYD dengue vaccine 
administered concomitantly with Cervarix is non-inferior to the immune response to CYD dengue 
vaccine administered sequentially with Cervarix. 
Individual hypotheses on CYD response for each antigen: 
A non-inferiority testing approach will be used to compare GMTs 28 days after the third injection 
of CYD dengue vaccine between groups for each serotype “i” based on the following individual 
hypotheses: 
 
with:  
i, serotypes in {1, 2, 3, 4} 
δ non-inferiority limit is set at 2 ie, 0.301 (=log10[2]), for each serotype “i”  
Non-inferiority for serotype i will be demonstrated if the lower bound of the 2-sided 95% CI is 
greater than -δ. 
Global hypotheses for non-inferiority on CYD response 
 
Overall, non-inferiority among the groups will be demonstrated if, for each antigen of Cervarix 
and each serotype of CYD dengue vaccine, the 2-sided 95% CIs lie above -δ. 
12.1.1.2 Statistical Methods 
The non-inferiority test will be performed using the 95% 2-sided CI of the difference of the means 
of the log10 transformed post- vaccination titers between Group 1 and Group 2 (α=2.5% one-
sided). The CI for differences will be calculated using normal approximation of log-transformed 
titers.

12.1.2 Hypotheses and Statistical Methods for Secondary Objectives 
12.1.2.1 Hypotheses 
Non-inferiority on Cervarix 
The objective is to demonstrate that the humoral immune response (in terms of seroconversion) to 
Cervarix after concomitant administration is non-inferior to sequential administration with CYD 
dengue vaccine measured 28 days after the last of dose of Cervarix. 
A non-inferiority testing approach will be used to compare seroconversion rates for the 2 antigens 
(HPV-16 and HPV-18) 28 days after the last dose of Cervarix.  
The individual tested hypotheses for the antigen “i” will be as follows: 
 
where the non-inferiority limit δ is set at 5% for each antigen “i”. 
Non-inferiority on CYD dengue vaccine  
No statistical hypothesis will be tested on CYD dengue vaccine for secondary objectives. 
12.1.2.2 Statistical Methods 
Non-inferiority on Cervarix 
Non-inferiority for antigen “i” will be demonstrated if the lower bound of the 2-sided 95% CI is 
greater than -δ. 
The non-inferiority test will be performed using the 95% 2-sided CI of the difference between 
groups (α=2.5% one-sided). The 95% CI will be calculated based on the Wilson score method 
without continuity correction as quoted by Newcombe for seroconversion rates. 
Descriptive analysis on Cervarix and CYD dengue vaccine immunogenicity  
No hypotheses will be tested. Immunogenicity point estimates and their 95% CI will be presented 
for each and any group, at baseline and after each dose of Cervarix and CYD dengue vaccine. 
A complementary analysis on CYD dengue vaccine immunogenicity after each dose will be 
conducted for each and any group according to the dengue status at baseline (dengue immune, 
dengue non-immune, and all subjects). 
The 95% CIs will be calculated using: 
• The normal approximate method for GMTs and GMTRs 
Assuming that Log10 transformation of the titers / data follows a normal distribution, at first, 
the mean and the 95% CI will be calculated on Log10 (titers / data) using the usual calculation 
for normal distribution (using Student’s t distribution with n-1 degree of freedom), then 
antilog transformations will be applied to the results of calculations, in order to provide 
geometric means (GMs) and their 95% CI.

• The exact binomial distribution for single proportions (Clopper-Pearson’s method, quoted by 
Newcombe) 
Safety 
All analyses will be descriptive; no hypotheses will be tested. Safety will be assessed for all after 
each and any dose of Cervarix and CYD Dengue vaccine. Moreover, a complementary analysis 
will be performed for each dose of CYD dengue vaccine, for each and any group, according to the 
dengue status at baseline. 
For the main parameters, 95% CIs of point estimates will be calculated using the normal 
approximation for quantitative data and the exact binomial distribution (Clopper-Pearson method, 
quoted by Newcombe) for single proportions. 
12.2 Analysis Sets 
Three analysis sets will be used: the Per-Protocol Set (PPAS), the Full Analysis Set (FAS), and 
the Safety Analysis Set (SafAS). 
12.2.1 Full Analysis Set 
The Full Analysis Set (FAS) is defined as the subset of subjects who received at least one dose of 
the study vaccine. 
The FASE (full analysis set for exposed subjects) is defined as the subset of subjects who were 
seropositive at baseline and received at least one dose of the study vaccine. 
Subjects will be analyzed by the vaccine treatment group to which they were randomized. 
12.2.2 Per-Protocol Analysis Set 
Two per-protocol analysis sets will be defined: one for Cervarix (PPX) and one for CYD dengue 
vaccine (PPC). The per-protocol analysis sets are subsets of the FAS. 
PPX 
The subjects presenting with at least one of the following relevant protocol deviations will be 
excluded from the PPX: 
• Subject did not meet all protocol-specified inclusion criteria or met at least one of the 
protocol-specified exclusion criteria 
• Subjects identified as dengue unexposed (seronegative) at baseline 
• Subject is seropositive at baseline for Cervarix (ie, at least one Ab levels against Cervarix 
HPV antigens > LLOQ at baseline) 
• Subject did not complete the vaccination schedule (until V05 for Group 1, V06 for Group 2) 
• Subject received a vaccine other than the one that she was randomized to receive (until V05 
for Group 1, V06 for Group 2) 
• Administration of vaccine was not done as per-protocol (site and route of administration)

• Subject did not receive vaccine in the proper time window (until V05 for Group 1, V06 for 
Group 2) 
• Subject did not provide after the 2nd dose of Cervarix a post-dose serology sample in the 
proper time window or a post-dose serology sample was not drawn (V05 for Group 1, V06 for 
Group 2) 
• Subject received a protocol-prohibited medication (prohibited therapies/medications/vaccines 
are indicated in Section 6.7) (until V05 for Group 1, V06 for Group 2) 
• Subject’s serology sample did not produce a valid test result, ie, no Cervarix antigen titer 
available 
PPC 
The subjects presenting with at least one of the following relevant protocol deviations will be 
excluded from the PPC: 
• Subject did not meet all protocol-specified inclusion criteria or met at least one of the 
protocol-specified exclusion criteria 
• Subjects identified as dengue unexposed (seronegative) at baseline 
• Subject did not complete the vaccination schedule 
• Subject received a vaccine other than the one that she was randomized to receive 
• Administration of vaccines was not done as per-protocol (site and route of administration) 
• Subject did not receive vaccines in the proper time window 
• Subject did not provide after the 3rd dose of CYD dengue vaccine a post-dose serology sample 
in the proper time window or a post-dose serology sample was not drawn (V08, M13 for 
Group 1 and M14 for Group 2) 
• Subject received a protocol-prohibited medication (prohibited therapies/medications/vaccines 
are indicated in Section 6.7) (until V07) 
• Subject’s serology sample did not produce a valid test result, ie, no Neutralizing Ab titers 
against any of the four parental dengue virus serotypes of CYD dengue vaccine available (at 
V08, M13 for Group 1 and M14 for Group 2) 
12.2.3 Safety Analysis Set 
The SafAS is defined as those subjects who have received at least one dose of the study vaccines. 
All subjects will have their safety analyzed after each dose according to the vaccine they actually 
received, and after any dose according to the vaccine received at first dose. The safety data will 
also be presented separately for dengue-exposed and dengue unexposed subjects. 
Safety data recorded for a vaccine received out of the protocol design will be excluded from the 
analysis (and listed separately). 
Note: Subjects will be included in the “any dose” analysis according to the 1st dose received that 
correspond to a protocol group.

12.2.4 Other Analysis Set(s) 
Randomized subjects 
A randomized subject is a subject for whom an injection group has been allocated. 
12.2.5 Populations Used in Analyses 
The main immunogenicity analyses (non-inferiority tests) will be performed on the PPASs, and 
will be confirmed on the FASE. In the FASE, subjects will be analyzed by the vaccine group to 
which they were randomized. 
All other immunogenicity analyses will be performed on the FASE and on the FAS. For the 
complementary analyses, subjects will be analyzed by the vaccine group to which they were 
randomized. 
The safety analyses will be performed on the SafAS. Subjects will be analyzed according to the 
vaccine they actually received. 
12.3 Handling of Missing Data and Outliers 
12.3.1 Safety 
No replacement will be done. 
12.3.2 Immunogenicity 
For the computation of GMTs, any titer reported as < LLOQ will be converted to a value of 1/2 
LLOQ. 
While a single approach was used for GMTs, two different approaches for GMT ratios were 
applied: 
• For Cervarix, < LLOQ will be converted to 1/2 LLOQ 
• For CYD dengue vaccine, < LLOQ will be converted to 1/2 LLOQ for a numerator and 
< LLOQ will be converted to LLOQ for a denominator 
Missing data will not be imputed. No test or search for outliers will be performed. 
12.3.3 Efficacy 
Not applicable. 
12.4 Interim / Preliminary Analysis 
Two planned statistical analyses will be performed (after the third CYD dengue vaccine injection, 
and after the end of the follow-up period).

An interim statistical analysis of the data obtained up to Day 28 post third vaccination (V08) 
might be performed once data are available and an interim database lock has been conducted. A 
final analysis will be performed once the 6 month safety data have been collected and the final 
database lock has occurred. 
No statistical adjustment is necessary because there will be no repeated analyses of the primary 
objective (as the test will be performed at the time of the first analysis).  
12.5 Determination of Sample Size and Power Calculation 
A total of 480 subjects will be enrolled: 240 subjects in each group. 
The reference standard deviations (SD) considered for Cervarix are 0.4 for both HPV-16 and 
HPV-18 (25) (26). 
The reference seroconversion rates for Cervarix were set to 99% for both antigens (25) (26). 
The reference SD considered are the following for CYD dengue vaccine: 0.9 for serotype 1, 0.7 
for serotypes 2 and 3 and 0.5 for serotype 4 (based on CYD13 and CYD15 efficacy studies 
conducted in subjects aged 9 to 16 years in Latin American countries). 
Considering a potential attrition rate of 15%, such sample size would provide 204 evaluable 
subjects in the per protocol (PP) population per group. This will give, for the co-primary 
objectives, a global power of 90.2% and for secondary objectives (in terms of Cervarix 
seroconversion) a power of 91.8%. 
Following Protocol Amendment 1, the number of evaluable subjects may be difficult to achieve 
(considering only exposed/seropositive subjects at baseline to be included in the Per-Protocol 
populations). Thus the non-inferiority testing will be done only if the number of evaluable 
subjects provides a global power of at least 80% for the co-primary objectives and secondary 
objective ie, if the number of evaluable subjects per group is at least 163 per group for the co-
primary objectives and 168 per group for the secondary objective. The power for non-inferiority 
in terms of GMTs per antigen and serotype is detailed in Table 12.1 and Table 12.2. 
This sample size will also provide a 95% probability of observing an AE that has a true incidence 
of 1.2% in each group.

13.1 Ethical Conduct of the Trial / Good Clinical Practice 
The conduct of this trial will be consistent with the standards established by the Declaration of 
Helsinki and compliant with the ICH guidelines for GCP as well as with all local and/or national 
regulations and directives. 
13.2 Source Data and Source Documents 
“Source data” are the data contained in source documents. Source documents are original 
documents or certified copies, and include, but are not limited to, DCs, medical and hospital 
records, screening logs, informed consent / assent forms, telephone contact logs, and worksheets. 
The purpose of trial source documents is to document the existence of subjects and to substantiate 
the integrity of the trial data collected. Investigators must maintain source documents so that they 
are accurate, complete, legible, and up to date.

For missing or discrepant data on a DC, the study coordinator will obtain verbal clarification from 
the subject, enter the response into the “investigator’s comment” page of the diary card, and 
transfer the information to the CRF. 
The subject pre-screening log should list all individuals contacted by the Investigators to 
participate in the trial, regardless of the outcome. 
The Investigator must printa any electronic records on an ongoing basis, sign and date them 
immediately after creation, and keep the printouts on file as source documents that can be verified 
by the Sponsor or an inspector against the electronic records. Any later changes of an electronic 
record require the record to be re-printed, dated (with an indication of the date of change), and 
signed. Such records must also be kept together with the original printed copy. 
13.3 Confidentiality of Data and Access to Subject Records 
Prior to initiation of the trial, the Investigator will sign a fully executed confidentiality agreement 
with Sanofi Pasteur. 
Sanofi Pasteur personnel (or designates), the IECs / IRBs, and regulatory agencies, including the 
Food and Drug Administration, require direct access to all study records, and will treat these 
documents in a confidential manner. 
In the event a subject’s medical records are not at the investigational site, it is the responsibility of 
the Investigator to obtain those records if needed. 
13.4 Monitoring, Auditing, and Archiving 
13.4.1 Monitoring  
Before the start of the trial (ie, before the inclusion of the first subject), the Investigators and the 
Sponsor’s staff or a representative will meet at the site-initiation visit to discuss the trial protocol 
and the detailed trial procedures. Emphasis will be placed on inclusion and exclusion criteria, visit 
timing, safety procedures, informed consent procedures, SAE reporting procedures, CRF 
completion, and the handling of samples and products. The Sponsor’s staff or a representative will 
ensure and document that all material to be used during the trial has been received at the site; and 
that the study investigator team and local Sponsor/delegate staff have been properly informed 
about the trial, GCP and regulatory requirements, and the Sponsor’s procedures. Specific training 
sessions for the study investigator team and the CRAs on these topics may be performed as 
necessary, and should be documented. 
The following instruction manuals will be provided: the CRF Completion Guidelines for entering 
data into the CRF, and the Operating Guidelines for detailed trial procedures such as the product 
management and sample-handling procedures. 
                                                 
a  Unless the electronic medical records are managed by validated computerized systems that are compliant with US 
21 CFR Part 11, in which case they are acceptable on their own.

After the start of the trial, the Sponsor’s staff or a representative will be in regular contact with the 
investigational team through telephone calls and regular follow-up visits. The Investigator or 
delegate must be available for these visits, and must allow the Sponsor/delegate staff direct access 
to subject medical files and CRFs. During these visits, the Sponsor/delegate staff will: 
• Evaluate the quality of the trial progress (adherence to protocol and any study-specific 
guidelines, quality of data collection and document completion, signature of consent forms, 
occurrence of SAEs, sample and product management, cold-chain monitoring, archiving) 
• Source-verify completed CRFs and any corresponding answered queries. 
• Determine the number of complete or ongoing issues identified at monitoring visits (e.g., 
protocol deviations, SAEs). Any identified problems will be discussed with the Investigator, 
and corrective or preventive actions will be determined, as appropriate. 
• After all protocol procedures have been completed and the data have been entered into the 
CRF, the Investigator must still be available to answer any queries forwarded by the Sponsor. 
All data-related queries must be completed prior to database lock. 
At the end of the trial, a close-out visit will be performed to ensure that: 
• The center has all the documents necessary for archiving 
• All samples have been shipped to the appropriate laboratories 
• All unused materials and products have been either destroyed or returned to the Sponsor 
13.4.2 Audits and Inspections 
A quality assurance audit may be performed at any time by the Sponsor’s Clinical and Medical 
Quality Operations department (C&MQO) or by independent auditors to verify that the trial has 
been conducted according to the protocol, GCP and ICH requirements, and other applicable 
regulations. An inspection may be conducted by regulatory authorities. The Investigator must 
allow direct access to trial documents during these inspections and audits. 
13.4.3 Archiving 
The Investigator must keep all trial documents after the completion or discontinuation of the trial, 
whatever the nature of the investigational center (private practice, hospital, or institution), for as 
long as required by applicable laws and regulations. In the absence of any applicable laws or 
regulations, trial documents will be kept at a minimum for the duration indicated on the Clinical
