Immunogenicity and Safety of Meningococcal Vaccine GSK134612 vs. Menactra® in Healthy Adolescent/Adults Aged 10-25 Years.
- Conditions
- Infections, Meningococcal
- Interventions
- Biological: Meningococcal vaccine 134612Biological: Menactra®
- Registration Number
- NCT00454909
- Lead Sponsor
- GlaxoSmithKline
- Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to characterize the safety and immunogenicity of 1 dose of GSK Biologicals' meningococcal vaccine GSK134612 as compared to Menactra® in adolescents/adults 11-25 years of age.
The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
The protocol posting has been updated following a protocol amendment.
- Detailed Description
Subjects 11-25 years of age will be randomized to receive either the meningococcal vaccine GSK134612 or Menactra®. An additional non-randomized group of subjects aged 10 years (\< 11 years of age) will be enrolled to receive meningococcal vaccine GSK134612 only (At the time the study begun, Menactra® was only licensed in the United States for individuals above 11 years of age and therefore could not be used as a control vaccine in subjects less than 11 years old).
This study will be single-blind for the subjects 11 to 25 years of age and open for the subjects 10 to \< 11 years of age.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Subjects With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement Against Neisseria Meningitides Serogroups A, C , W-135, Y (hSBA-MenA, hSBA-MenC, hSBA-MenW -135 and hSBA-Men-Y) Antibody Titers Greater Than or Equal to the Cut-off Value At Month 1 The cut-off value for the hSBA titers was greater than or equal to (≥) 1:8.
Number of Subjects With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement Against Neisseria Meningitides Serogroups A, C , W-135, Y (hSBA-MenA, hSBA-MenC , hSBA-MenW -135 and hSBA-Men-Y) Antibody Titers Greater Than or Equal to the Cut-off Value At Day 0 (PRE) The cut-off value for the hSBA titers was greater than or equal to (≥) 1:8.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Subjects Reporting Adverse Events Resulting in Emergency Room (ER) Visits From Day 0 to Month 6 Number of Subjects With hSBA-MenA, hSBA-MenC, hSBA-MenW -135 and hSBA-Men-Y Antibody Titers Greater Than or Equal to the Cut-off Value At Day 0 (PRE) and Month 1 The cut-off value for the hSBA titers was greater than or equal to (≥) 1:4.
hSBA-MenA, hSBA-MenC, hSBA-MenW -135 and hSBA-Men-Y Antibody Titers At Day 0 (PRE) and Month 1 Antibody titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs).
Number of Subjects With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) During the 31-day (Days 0-30) follow-up period 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) From Day 0 to Month 6 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 Illness(es) (NOCI) From Day 0 to Month 6 NOCIs include autoimmune disorders, asthma, type I diabetes, allergies.
Number of Subjects Reporting Rash From Day 0 to Month 6 Rash assessed was hives, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, petechiae.
Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms During the 4-day (Days 0-3) and the 8-day (Days 0-7) post-vaccination period Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. 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 During the 4-day (Days 0-3) and the 8-day (Days 0-7) post-vaccination period Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, fever \[defined as orally temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)\], gastrointestinal symptoms and headache. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever \> 39.5 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.
