About this study
Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y, and W-135) Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine (Menactra®) in Adolescents in the US When Administered Concomitantly With Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed (Tdap Vaccine)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the concomitant administration of Menactra® vaccine and Tdap vaccine in adolescents aged 11 to 17 years.
Primary Objective:
To determine whether concomitant administration of two vaccines, Tdap and Menactra®, induces antibody responses that are similar to those observed when each vaccine is given separately.
Secondary Objective:
To compare the rates of injection site reactions at the Tdap injection site after Tdap and Menactra® vaccines are administered concomitantly to the corresponding rates of reactions when Tdap vaccine is administered alone.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing T dap + Meningococcal Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conj., Tdap + Meningococcal Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conj. and Meningococcal Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conj. + T dap in people with Meningitis and Meningococcemia, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 20 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 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 14 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 20 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 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 Dec 2009). 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 at Least a 4-fold Rise in Meningococcal Antibody Titer From Baseline (Day 0) to Day 28 Post-vaccination With Menactra® Vaccine. (time frame: Day 0 to Day 28 post-vaccination). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Feb 2014.
