Phase 3

Completed

• Conditions: Infections, Meningococcal
• Interventions: Biological: Meningococcal (groups A, C, W and Y) oligosaccharide diphtheria CRM-197 conjugate Vaccine (Menveo)

• Lead Sponsor: GlaxoSmithKline

Brief Summary

The purpose/aim of this study is to assess the safety and antibody response to vaccination with a booster dose of Menveo given 4-6 years after primary MenACWY vaccination and to assess the safety and antibody response to a single dose of Menveo given to vaccine-naïve subjects

Detailed Description

This is a phase 3b, controlled, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of Menveo after a single vaccination in healthy individuals who were vaccinated with Menveo or Menactra 4 to 6 years before and in vaccine-naive individuals. Vaccine-naive subjects: subjects who have not received any meningococcal vaccine prior to participation to this clinical trial.

Subjects will be randomised into one of the two different blood draw schedules according to a 1:1 ratio.

* Blood draws at Day 1, Day 4 and Day 29

* Blood draws at Day 1, Day 6 and Day 29

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Menactra-Menveo Group	Meningococcal (groups A, C, W and Y) oligosaccharide diphtheria CRM-197 conjugate Vaccine (Menveo)	Approximately 300 subjects, who were vaccinated with a single dose of Menactra 4 to 6 years before, will receive one dose of MenACWY-CRM at Day 1.
Naive Group	Meningococcal (groups A, C, W and Y) oligosaccharide diphtheria CRM-197 conjugate Vaccine (Menveo)	Aproximately 100 subjects, of similar age to subjects enrolled in other primed groups, who have not received any meningococcal vaccination, will receive one dose of MenACWY-CRM at Day 1.
Menveo-Menveo Group	Meningococcal (groups A, C, W and Y) oligosaccharide diphtheria CRM-197 conjugate Vaccine (Menveo)	Approximately 300 subjects, who were vaccinated with a single dose of Menveo 4 to 6 years before, will receive one dose of MenACWY-CRM at Day 1.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Percentages of Subjects With Human Serum Bactericidal Antibody (hSBA) Seroresponse Against Neisseria Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y.	At Day 29	Seroresponse was defined as follows:for subjects with pre-vaccination hSBA titers\< 4,postvaccination hSBA titers≥16;for subjects with pre-vaccination hSBA titers≥4,post vaccination hSBA titers of atleast 4 times the pre-vaccination titers.Criteria to demonstrate primary objectives:Immune response sufficiency was tested sequentially;first in the group of subjects who received primary vaccination with Menveo \&,if met,also in group of subjects who received primary vaccination with Menactra.Immune response is considered sufficient if lower limit of the 1-sided 97.5% CI for percentage of subjects with hSBA seroresponse against serogroups A, C, W \& Y is greater than 75%.Study is considered successful if immune response sufficiency is demonstrated atleast in group of subjects who received primary vaccination with Menveo.This outcome measure was assessed only on subjects from Menveo-Menveo \& Menactra-Menveo groups.Data from pooled and Naive groups are presented as part of secondary objectives
