- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Vaccine Response to Meningococcal Antigens (MenA, MenC, MenW-135 and MenY) One month after vaccination (Month 1) Vaccine response for serum bactericidal assay using rabbit complement (rSBA) antibodies against Neisseria meningitides serogroups A, C , W-135, Y (rSBA-MenA, rSBA-MenC, rSBA-MenW-135 and rSBA-MenY) was defined as: for initially seronegative subjects \[rSBA titer below (\<) 1:8\], post-vaccination rSBA titer greater than or equal to (≥) 1: 32; for initially seropositive subjects with rSBA titer between 1:8 and 1:128, at least four-fold increase in rSBA titer from pre to post vaccination; and for initially seropositive subjects with rSBA titer ≥1:128, at least two-fold increase in rSBA titer from pre to post vaccination.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Subjects With rSBA-MenA, rSBA-MenC, rSBA-MenW-135 and rSBA-MenY Antibody Titers ≥ the Cut-off Value At Day 0 and Month 1 The cut-off value for the rSBA titers was greater than or equal to (≥) 1:128.
rSBA-MenA, rSBA-MenC, rSBA-MenW-135 and rSBA-MenY Antibody Titers At Day 0 and Month 1 Antibody titers were presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs).
Number of Subjects With Anti-polysaccharide Meningococcal Serogroup A (Anti-PSA), Serogroup C (Anti-PSC), Serogroup W-135 (Anti-PSW-135) and Serogroup Y (Anti-PSY) Antibody Concentrations ≥ the Cut-off Value At Day 0 and Month 1 The cut-off value for the anti-polysaccharide concentrations was greater than or equal to (≥) 0.3 micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL).
Number of Subjects With Anti-PSA, Anti-PSC, Anti-PSW-135 and Anti-PSY Antibody Concentrations ≥ the Cut-off Value At Day 0 and Month 1 The cut-off value for the anti-polysaccharide concentrations was greater than or equal to (≥) 2.0 micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL).
Anti-PSA, Anti-PSC, Anti-PSW-135 and Anti-PSY Antibody Concentrations At Day 0 and Month 1 Antibody concentrations were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL).
Number of Subjects With Anti-tetanus Toxoid (Anti-TT) Antibody Concentrations ≥ the Cut-off Value At Day 0 and Month 1 The cut-off value for the anti-TT concentrations was greater than or equal to (≥) 0.1 international units per milliliter (IU/mL).
Anti-tetanus Toxoid (Anti-TT) Antibody Concentrations At Day 0 and Month 1 Antibody concentrations were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in international units per milliliter (IU/mL).
Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms Within 4 days (Day 0 to 3) post-vaccination Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = significant pain at rest or pain that prevented normal every day activities. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of injection site.
Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms Within 4 days (Day 0 to 3) post-vaccination Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue,gastrointestinal symptoms, headache and temperature \[defined as orally temperature equal to or above (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)\]. Any = occurrence of any general symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to vaccination. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 temperature = temperature above (\>) 39.5 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as causally related to the study vaccination.
Number of Subjects With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) Within 31 days (Day 0 to 30) after vaccination An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.
Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Within 31 days (Day 0 to 30) after vaccination Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.
Number of Subjects With New Onset Chronic Illnesses (NOCI) Within 31 days (Day 0 to 30) after vaccination NOCIs include autoimmune disorders, asthma, type I diabetes, allergies.
