About this study

Official title: Antibody Persistence and Booster Dose Response in Subjects Who Received Menactra® (Meningococcal [Groups A, C, Y, and W-135] Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine) Three Years Earlier in Study MTA26

Study will evaluate the persistence of antibodies approximately three years after an initial dose of Menactra® vaccine in toddlers who participated in study MTA26 (NCT00643916) and age-matched Menactra naive participants.

Objectives:

  • To assess the persistence of antibody responses three years after one or two doses of Menactra® vaccine in subjects who participated in study MTA26.
  • To describe the antibody responses to a single dose of Menactra® vaccine in subjects who had previously received one or two doses of Menactra® vaccine and in Menactra® vaccine-naïve subjects.
  • To describe the safety profile of a single dose of Menactra® vaccine in subjects.
Read the detailed description

Subjects that received Menactra® vaccine in study MTA26 (NCT00643916) and age-matched Menactra naive participants will receive a single dose of Menactra® on Day 0. They will be evaluated for immunogenicity and safety post-vaccination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Serum Meningococcal Serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 Bactericidal Antibody Titers ≥ 1:4 and ≥ 1:8 Before and Following Vaccination With Menactra®

    Antibody titers to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 were measured by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (SBA-HC). Bactericidal antibody persistence to meningococcal serogroups was defined as as pre-vaccination titers of ≥1:4 and ≥1:8. Booster response to a single Menactra vaccine dose was defined as antibody titers of ≥1:4 and ≥1:8 30 days post-booster vaccination.

    Measured: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 30 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Meningococcal polysaccharide diphtheria toxoid conjugate in people with Meningitis and Meningococcemia, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 13 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 4 inclusion and 14 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 15 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 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 15 Feb 2016). 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 Participants With Serum Meningococcal Serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 Bactericidal Antibody Titers ≥ 1:4 and ≥ 1:8 Before and Following Vaccination With Menactra® (time frame: Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 30 post-vaccination). 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 15 Feb 2016.
