MenACWY- PSMenACWY polysaccharide vaccineSubjects received one single dose of the polysaccharide vaccine.
MenACWY-CRM(Ad+)MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, adjuvantedSubjects received one single dose of adjuvanted formulation of conjugate vaccine.
MenACWY-CRM(Ad-)MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, unadjuvantedSubjects received one single dose of unadjuvanted formulation of conjugate vaccine.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentages of Subjects With N.Meningitidis Human Serum Bactericidal Activity (hSBA) Titers≥ 1:4, After One Dose of Either MenACWY-CRM Vaccine, With Adjuvant or Without Adjuvant, or MenACWY-PS Vaccine1 month after vaccination

Immune response of a single dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, with adjuvant or without adjuvant compared to that of one dose of MenACWY polysaccharide (PS) vaccine, one month after administration to subjects aged 11 to 17 years, as measured by the percentage of subjects with hSBA titers \>1:4 directed against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentages of Subjects With hSBA Titers≥ 1:4, After One Dose Of Either MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) or MenACWY-PS Vaccine12 months after vaccination

Immune response of one dose of MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) compared to that of one dose of MenACWY polysaccharide(MenACWY-PS) vaccine, 12 months after administration to subjects aged 11 to 17 years, as measured by the percentage of subjects with human complement serum bactericidal activity (hSBA) titers≥1:4 against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y. The endpoint point compares only data of unadjuvanted formulation of the conjugate vaccine to the polysaccharide vaccine.

hSBA Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) After One Dose Of Either MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) or MenACWY-PS Vaccine12 months after vaccination

Immune response of one dose of MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) conjugate vaccine compared with that of MenACWY-PS vaccine, 12 months after administration in subjects 11 to 17 years of age, as measured by hSBA geometric mean titers (GMTs) against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y.The endpoint compares only data of unadjuvanted formulation of the conjugate vaccine to the polysaccharide vaccine.

Numbers of Subjects 11 to 17 Years of Age Who Reported Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events After the VaccinationDay 1 to Day 7

Safety was assessed as the number of subjects 11 to 17 years of age who reported solicited local and systemic adverse events from day 1 up to and including day 7 after the vaccination of either MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, with adjuvant or without adjuvant or MenACWY-PS vaccine.

hSBA Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) After One Dose Of MenACWY-CRM Vaccine, With Adjuvant or Without Adjuvant or MenACWY-PS Vaccine1 month after vaccination

Immune response of one dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, with adjuvant or without adjuvant or MenACWY-PS vaccine, one month after administration in subjects 11 to 17 years of age, as measured by hSBA geometric mean titers (GMTs) against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y.
