About this study

Official title: Study to Assess Immunogenicity, Reactogenicity and Safety of 1 Dose of GSK Biologicals' Meningococcal Vaccine GSK134612 vs. 1 Dose of Sanofi-Pasteur's Menactra® in Healthy Subjects 10-25 Years.

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.

Read the 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.

Being tested

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. 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

  2. hSBA-MenA, hSBA-MenC, hSBA-MenW -135 and hSBA-Men-Y Antibody Titers

    Antibody titers are presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs).

    Measured: At Day 0 (PRE) and Month 1

  3. Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms

    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.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) and the 8-day (Days 0-7) post-vaccination period

  4. Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms

    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.

    Measured: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) and the 8-day (Days 0-7) post-vaccination period

  5. Number of Subjects With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)

    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.

    Measured: During the 31-day (Days 0-30) follow-up period after vaccination

  6. Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    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.

    Measured: From Day 0 to Month 6

  7. Number of Subjects With New Onset Chronic Illness(es) (NOCI)

    NOCIs include autoimmune disorders, asthma, type I diabetes, allergies.

    Measured: From Day 0 to Month 6

  8. Number of Subjects Reporting Rash

    Rash assessed was hives, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, petechiae.

    Measured: From Day 0 to Month 6

  9. Number of Subjects Reporting Adverse Events Resulting in Emergency Room (ER) Visits

    Measured: From Day 0 to Month 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Meningococcal vaccine 134612 and Menactra® in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 10 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 19 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 8 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Apr 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

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 (time frame: At Day 0 (PRE)). The study lists 2 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 NCT00454909, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 8 Jun 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
