A Phase IV Prospective Safety Surveillance Cohort Study Of ACAM2000® In Deploying Military Personnel

Primary Objectives:

- To compare the rates of myopericarditis (subclinical, suspected, probable, or confirmed)
in deploying military subjects who received ACAM2000® vaccine to rates among subjects
positioned to deploy who would be personally eligible to receive ACAM2000 vaccine but do
not receive ACAM2000 vaccine due to recency of prior vaccination (as determined by DoD
healthcare providers) or due to conditions or characteristics of their contacts.

- To identify cases of subclinical myopericarditis in deploying military subjects who
received ACAM2000 vaccine.

Secondary Objectives:

- To compare the rates of severe and serious dermatologic adverse events observed in
deploying military subjects who received ACAM2000® vaccine to rates among subjects
positioned to deploy who would be personally eligible to receive ACAM2000 vaccine but do
not receive ACAM2000 vaccine due to recency of prior vaccination (as determined by DoD
healthcare providers) or due to conditions or characteristics of their contacts.

- To compare the rates of severe and serious neurological adverse events observed in
deploying military subjects who received ACAM2000® vaccine to rates among subjects
positioned to deploy who would be personally eligible to receive ACAM2000 vaccine but do
not receive ACAM2000 vaccine due to recency of prior vaccination (as determined by DoD
healthcare providers) or due to conditions or characteristics of their contacts.

- To compare the rates of adverse events observed in subjects approximately 10 days
following their ACAM2000® vaccination to rates among subjects positioned to deploy who
would be personally eligible to receive ACAM2000 vaccine but do not receive ACAM2000
vaccine due to recency of prior vaccination (as determined by DoD healthcare providers)
or due to conditions or characteristics of their contacts.

- To evaluate potential risk factors associated with the development of confirmed,
probable, and/or suspected ACAM2000-associated myopericarditis.

This is a prospective safety surveillance study in a US military Department of Defense (DoD)
population. Military subjects either naive to smallpox immunization and have received
ACAM2000® vaccine or who have previously been immunized with a vaccinia vaccine, usually
Dryvax®, will be enrolled into the study.

No vaccine will be administered as part of this study.

Inclusion Criteria :

- Written informed consent obtained prior to the conduct of any study-related
procedures.

- Male and Female military personnel positioned for active deployment.

- Participant naïve to previous smallpox vaccination and received the ACAM2000 vaccine
(Cohort 1), OR, Participant has not received ACAM2000 vaccine within the prior 3
years, AND is ineligible for current ACAM2000 vaccination either because of recency of
prior vaccinia vaccination or for reasons solely attributable to conditions or
characteristics of their contacts (such as a healthy soldier who is married to someone
with a contraindicated condition) (Cohort 2).

Exclusion Criteria :

- Subjects judged by the investigator as unlikely to understand the scope of the study
and/or unlikely to be able to be compliant with the study procedures and visits.

- Participation in any other studies involving investigational or marketed products
within 30 days prior to Visit 1.
