What is being measured

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

  1. persistence of memory response to N. meningitidis serogroup C as measured by serum bactericidal activity at one year after either a challenge with 1/5 of a dose of Meningococcal A/C Polysaccharide vaccine or a booster dose of MenC Vaccine.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluation and comparison of the persistence of antibodies against N. meningitidis serogroup C as measured by hBCA

  2. Evaluation of the immunological response (ELISA) to N. meningitidis serogroup C

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing BLOOD DRAW in people with Prevention of Meningococcal Infection, run by Novartis at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 4 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 19 Sep 2014. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

persistence of memory response to N. meningitidis serogroup C as measured by serum bactericidal activity at one year after either a challenge with 1/5 of a dose of Meningococcal A/C Polysaccharide vaccine or a booster dose of MenC Vaccine.. 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 19 Sep 2014.
