About this study

Official title: A Phase IV, Partially Double-blind Study to Demonstrate Non-inferiority of GSK Biologicals' Mencevax™ ACWY (New Process) Versus Mencevax™ ACWY (Current Process) When Administered as a Single Dose to Subjects Aged 2-30 Yrs

The purpose of this study is to evaluate that the vaccine produced with the new process and administered as a single dose is at least as good as the existing Mencevax™ ACWY vaccine in terms of immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity, in healthy subjects aged 2-30 years.

Read the detailed description

"Randomized study with four groups to receive one of the following vaccination regimens: - One of the 3 lots of GSK Biologicals' Mencevax™ ACWY vaccine manufactured by the new process (3 different groups) - GSK Biologicals' already existing Mencevax™ ACWY

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Mencevax ACWYBiological

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 1 month after vaccination, measurement of serum bactericidal titers against meningococcal serogroups A, C, W135 and Y (SBA-MenA; SBA-MenC; SBA-MenW135 and SBA-MenY)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Immuno : the same immuno evaluation performed 1 month after vaccination will also be performed before vaccination; also vaccine response at Post-dose 1.

  2. Safety : Solicited symptoms during day 0-3, unsol. symptoms during day 0-30 & SAEs during entire study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Mencevax ACWY in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Lebanon.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 21 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Lebanon. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

1 month after vaccination, measurement of serum bactericidal titers against meningococcal serogroups A, C, W135 and Y (SBA-MenA; SBA-MenC; SBA-MenW135 and SBA-MenY). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 21 Sep 2016.
