About this study

Official title: Evaluate Immunogenicity, Reactogenicity, Safety of GSK Biologicals' MenC-TT Vaccine (2 Formulations) Given With Infanrix Hexa® + GSK Biologicals' Hib MenC-TT Vaccine (2 Formulations) Given With Infanrix Penta® to Infants in Mths 3,4,5 of Life

The purpose of this primary vaccination study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of three doses of GSK Biologicals' MenC-TT (Neisseria meningitidis group C polysaccharide-tetanus toxoid) vaccine (2 different formulations) and of three doses of GSK Biologicals' Hib-MenC-TT (Haemophilus influenzae type b-MenC-TT) vaccine (2 different formulations) when given to infants in their 3rd, 4th, and 5th months of life. Concomitant vaccines were given to all children to complete the vaccination agenda.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MenC-TT and Hib-MenC-TT in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of Meningococcal C serum bactericidal assay using rabbit complement (rSBA-MenC) antibody titers ≥ 1:8 & ≥ 1:128 and titers (time frame: Prior to vaccination, one month after the 2nd and 3rd vaccine doses). The study lists 30 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00135486, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Sep 2016.
