A Phase 3 Study to Assess the Immune Response And Safety Of Rmenb+Omv Nz In Primed Healthy Participants (10 To 20 Years Old)

Phase 3
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Meningitis
Interventions
Biological: rMenB+OMV NZ vaccine
Registration Number
NCT06995430
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the immune response and safety of a booster dose of the meningococcal group B vaccine, rMenB+OMV NZ (also known as Bexsero), in adolescents and young adults aged 10 to 20 years. This study focuses on individuals who were first vaccinated with rMenB+OMV NZ as infants. The primary hypothesis is that a booster dose of the vaccine will elicit a stronger immune response in these primed individuals compared to those who have never received any group B meningococcal vaccine, referred to as 'nave' participants.

Inclusion Criteria

Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:

For primed group only:

• Participated who were primed with rMenB + OMV NZ in only either 3+1 or 2+1 schedule during the first 2 years of life as confirmed by electronic or paper vaccination record.

OR

For naïve group only:

• Electronic or paper vaccination record confirmed participant who has never received any group B meningococcal vaccine and is recruited in the same country as primed participants.

For all participants:

  • Participants and/or participants' parent(s)/ legally acceptable representative(s) (LAR[s]), who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol
  • Written or witnessed/thumb printed informed consent obtained from the participant / parent(s)/LAR(s) of the participant prior to performance of any study-specific procedure.
  • Written informed assent obtained from the participant (if applicable) along with informed consent from the participant's parent(s)/LAR(s) prior to performing any study specific procedure.

Note: For age 10-16 years, parents or LAR to give consent along with participants, based on country regulations for participants and for >16/18 to 20 years, participants give consent independent of parents/LARs.

  • A male or female between, and including, 10 and 20 years of age at the time of the first study intervention administration.

  • Female participants of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study. Non-childbearing potential is defined as pre-menarche, current bilateral tubal ligation or occlusion, hysterectomy, bilateral ovariectomy.

  • Female participants of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study, if the participant:

    • has practiced adequate contraception for 1 month prior to study intervention administration, and
    • has a negative pregnancy test on the day of study intervention administration, and
    • has agreed to continue adequate contraception during the entire study treatment period.
Exclusion Criteria

Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:

Medical conditions

  • Current or previous, confirmed or suspected disease caused by N. meningitidis.
  • Known exposure to an individual with laboratory confirmed N. meningitidis infection, within 60 days prior to enrollment.
  • History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study intervention.
  • Medical conditions representing a contraindication to intramuscular vaccination and blood draws.
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).
  • Any other clinical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might pose additional risk to the participant due to participation in the study.

Prior/Concomitant therapy

  • Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug, vaccine or medical device) other than the study intervention during the period beginning 30 days before the first dose of study intervention (Day -29 to Day 1), or their planned use during the study period.

  • Chronic administration of immune-modifying drugs (defined as more than 14 consecutive days in total) and/or planned use of long-acting immune-modifying treatments at any time up to the end of the study.

    • Within 90 days prior to study intervention administration: for corticosteroids, this will mean prednisone equivalent ≥20 mg/day for adult participants or >= 0.5 mg/kg/day with maximum of 20 milligram (mg)/day for pediatric participants. Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
    • Within 90 days prior to study intervention administration: long-acting immune-modifying drugs including among others immunotherapy (e.g., TNF-inhibitors), monoclonal antibodies, antitumoral medication.
  • Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products or plasma derivatives within 180 days prior to study intervention administration and/or planned use at any time up to the end of the study.

For primed group only:

• Participants who received additional dose(s) of group B meningococcal vaccine other than 2+1 or 3+1 schedule prior to study intervention administration.

Prior/Concurrent clinical study experience

• Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the participant has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational intervention (drug/vaccine/invasive medical device).

Other exclusion criteria

  • Pregnant or lactating female participant.
  • Any study personnel or their immediate dependents, family, or household member.
  • Child in care.
