What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects With hSBA ≥1:8

    Percentages of subjects with human Serum Bactericidal Assay (hSBA) ≥1:8 as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and associated 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed for each of the serogroups within each of the vaccinated groups and in age-matched control subjects.

    Measured: At 40 and 60 months of age

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Subjects With hSBA ≥1:4

    Percentages of subjects with hSBA ≥1:4 as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and associated 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed for each of the serogroups within each of the vaccinated groups and in age-matched control subjects.

    Measured: At 40 and 60 months of age

  2. GMTs in Subjects Within Each Site and in Age-Matched Control Subjects

    The Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and 95% CIs were calculated for each vaccine group and for each serogroup by exponentiating (base 10) the least square means of the logarithmically transformed (base 10) titers and their 95% CIs obtained from a two-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with factors for vaccine group and center.

    Measured: At 40 and 60 months of age

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MenACWY-CRM197 and Blood test in people with Meningococcal Disease, run by Novartis Vaccines at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 1 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 24 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada, 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 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 19 Sep 2012). 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?

Percentage of Subjects With hSBA ≥1:8 (time frame: At 40 and 60 months of age). 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 NCT00601731, 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 24 Oct 2014.
