Study in Children to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of 4 Formulations of GSK Bio MenACWY-TT Conjugate Vaccine
Phase 2
Completed
- Conditions
- Infections, Meningococcal
- Registration Number
- NCT00126984
- Lead Sponsor
- GlaxoSmithKline
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of one dose of four different formulations of the MenACWY conjugate vaccine when given to healthy children aged 12 14 months and 3 5 years. The selection of the best formulation will be based on data obtained up to one month after the vaccine dose. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, September 2007.
- Detailed Description
The study will enrol subjects of 12 to 14 months of age and subjects of 3 to 5 years of age. Meningitec™ or Mencevax™ ACWY vaccine will serve as active control. The study will be conducted in two stages: The primary vaccination phase (Study Stage 1) of the study will include all subjects; the second (booster/persistence) phase of the study (Study Stage 2) will include subjects in the active control groups and in the group which was primed with the selected MenACWY formulation.
