All monkeys were challenged with 5 log units of DEN1 virus (West Pacific 74, nonattenuated), with the exception of monkeys F20928M and F22673F, which received 4 log units of challenge virus (pilot study).
No virus could be detected when serum was tested in the plaque assay at undiluted, 1:2, or 1:10 dilutions; limit of detection, 1 log10 PFU/ml.
180 days postvaccination.
30 days postchallenge (day 210).
