It is of widespread distribution, occurs in epidemic waves and affects most people by 20 years of age. This will be a prospective, randomized, single blind, parallel, active controlled, multicenter, non-inferiority, phase III clinical trial in healthy pediatric subjects aged 1 to 12 years in India. The study will enroll approximately 344 healthy Indian subjects to receive single dose of either test Varicella vaccine (live attenuated) of Test or reference vaccine in 1:1 ratio. The study will be conducted in sequential manner wherein subject aged >6-12 years will be enrolled before subjects aged 1-6 years. The immune response will be evaluated at day 42 post vaccination and safety will be evaluated throughout the study. |
