Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of 3 doses of the meningococcal serogroup B vaccine when given, using either a 0-2-4 month or a 0-1-6 month schedule, to healthy adolescents aged 12-18 years; a control group will receive 2 doses of Havrix™ (0-6 months) and Meningitec™ (month 1).
Detailed Description
The study is open; however, vaccines given to study group at 0-1-6 months and to control group will be administered in an observer-blind manner. 3 blood samplings for antibody testing: before vaccination and one month after the second and third vaccine doses.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Meningococcal serogroup B (MenB) immune response (i.e. at least a 4-fold increase in serum bactericidal activity [SBA] from pre-vaccination titer) at 1 month postvaccination for each MenB strain assayed
Secondary Outcomes

- After each vaccination: grade 3 and any solicited symptoms (Day 0-14), unsolicited symptoms (Day 0-30)
- Serious adverse events [SAEs] (whole study)
