Measles, mumps and rubella
Intervention(s)

MMR vaccine, against measles, mumps and rubella (Schwarz, RIT 4385 and Wistar RA 27/3 strains, respectively), to be administered as a single 0.5 mL dose, subcutaneously, delivered by a needle-free device (experimental group) or by the conventional needle and syringe method (control group), in a 2:1 proportion,
that is, 388 volunteers allocated to the experimental group and 194 to the control group. Volunteers will be followed-up for 42 days after vaccination. Blood collections for immunogenicity before vaccination and 42 days after vaccination. Adverse events will be registered in diary cards by parents/guardians during this period.
Primary Outcome(s)
Antibody titres 42 days after vaccination: cut offs for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) 231 units/mL (mumps) and 4 IU/mL for rubella. Plaque reduction neutralisation test (PRNT) for measles, cut off 0.20 IU/mL.
Secondary Outcome(s)
Local and systemic adverse events during 42 days after vaccination
