About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Open-Label, Single-Center, Extension Study Evaluating Antibody Persistence Compared to Naïve Children and Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of a Booster Dose of Novartis rMenB±OMV NZ Vaccine in Healthy UK Children Who Previously Received a Three-Dose Series of the Novartis Vaccine as Infants in Study V72P9

The proposed study V72P9E1 is an Extension Study of V72P9. The objectives of this extension study will be to explore antibody persistence in children at approximately 40 months of age and to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a booster dose of rMenB±OMV NZ administered to subjects at approximately 40 months of age. Antibody persistence will be subsequently measured at 18-20 months after these booster doses when the subjects are 60 months of age. Two groups of naïve subjects, aged approximately 40 and 60 months, will be recruited in the study to serve as a baseline comparator for assessing antibody persistence at these ages. These subjects will receive a two-dose catch-up regimen with rMenB+OMV NZ. Subjects who are enrolled at 40 months of age are offered DTaP/IPV and MMR vaccinations , if they have not already received these vaccines prior to enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Persistence of Serum Bactericidal Antibody Titers in Children (at 40 Months of Age), Twenty-eight Months After Completing Primary Vaccination.

    The geometric mean antibody titers (GMTs) against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B in children (at 40 months of age); twenty-eight months after completion of primary vaccination with either rMenB or rMenB+OMV NZ vaccines, are compared with the GMTs in vaccine-naïve children.

    Measured: 28 months after primary vaccination; Baseline for Naïve

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Persisting Serum Bactericidal Antibodies Titers ≥4, Twenty-eight Months After Completing Primary Vaccination.

    The percentages of subjects with persisting serum bactericidal antibodies (hSBA) titers ≥4, against N meningitidis serogroup B at 40 months of age; twenty-eight months after completion of primary vaccination with either rMenB or rMenB+OMV NZ as compared to the vaccine-naïve children are reported.

    The serum bactericidal antibodies directed against serogroup B meningococci, are measured by human complement Serum Bactericidal Assay (hSBA).

    Measured: 28 months after primary vaccination; Baseline for Naïve

  3. Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events After a Booster Dose of rMenB or rMenB+OMV NZ Vaccine at Forty Months of Age.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rMenB and rMenB+OMV NZ in people with Meningococcal Disease, run by Novartis Vaccines 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 1 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 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 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 11 Mar 2014). 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?

Persistence of Serum Bactericidal Antibody Titers in Children (at 40 Months of Age), Twenty-eight Months After Completing Primary Vaccination. (time frame: 28 months after primary vaccination; Baseline for Naïve). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01026974, 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 1 Oct 2014.
