Data are mean (SD), n (%), or n/N (%). The safety set included all participants who had received at least one dose of study intervention.

*

Participants who had pre-vaccination neutralising antibody concentrations above lower limit of detection were considered seropositive.

The normal range was dependent on each local laboratory where the patients glycated haemoglobin A1c was tested.
