Phase 1/2 Study of TAK-850 Subcutaneous Injection in Healthy Adults

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single subcutaneous injection of TAK-850 as compared to intramuscular injection of TAK-850 in healthy Japanese adults

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-850. This drug is being tested to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a single subcutaneous injection as compared to a single, intramuscular injection.

A total of 110 healthy participants (55 per group) will take part in this study.

Each participant will be randomly (like flipping a coin) assigned to receive one of the following :

* A single injection of TAK-850, subcutaneously , or
* A single injection of TAK-850, intramuscularly.

Participants will make up to 3 visits to the study site. Total duration of this study is 22 days.

  7. The participant has any medically diagnosed or suspected immune deficient condition.

  8. The participant has an immune compromising condition or disease, or is currently undergoing a form of treatment or was undergoing a form of treatment that can be expected to influence immune response within 30 days prior to the injection of study vaccine. Such treatments include, but is not limited to, systemic or high dose inhaled corticosteroids (\>800 mcg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent; the use of inhaled and nasal steroids that do not exceed this level will be permitted), radiation treatment or other immunosuppressive or cytotoxic drugs.

  9. The participant has received antipyretics within 4 hours prior to the injection of study vaccine.

  11. The participant has a functional or surgical asplenia. 12. The participant has a rash, other dermatologic conditions or tattoos which may interfere with the evaluation of injection site reaction as determined by the investigator.

  13. The participant has a history of, or is infected with the Hepatitis B Virus (HBsAgs), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

  14. The participant has a known hypersensitivity to any component of TAK-850. 15. The participant has a history of severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis. 16. The participant has a history of drug abuse (defined as any illicit drug use) or a history of alcohol abuse within 1 year prior to the injection of study vaccine or is unwilling to agree to abstain from alcohol and drugs throughout the study.

  17. The participant has received any blood products (e.g. blood transfusion or immunoglobulin) within 90 days prior to the injection of study vaccine.

  18. The participant has received a live vaccine within 4 weeks (28 days) or an inactivated vaccine within 2 weeks (14 days) prior to the injection of study vaccine.

  19. If female, the participant is pregnant or lactating or intending to become pregnant before signing informed consent, during, or within 1 month after participating in this study; or intending to donate ova during such time period.

  20. The participant has donated whole blood ≥200 mL within 4 weeks (28 days), ≥400 mL within 12 weeks (84 days), ≥800 mL within 52 weeks (364 days), or blood components within 2 weeks (14 days) prior to the injection of study vaccine.

  21. The participant has abnormal laboratory values that suggest a clinically significant underlying disease at the assessment prior to the injection of study vaccine, or the participant has the following lab abnormalities: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) more than 3 times the upper limits of normal.

  22. In the opinion of the investigator or subinvestigator, the participant is unlikely to comply with protocol requirements or is considered ineligible for any other reason.
