What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • rMenB+OMV NZBiological

    Subjects will be assigned to a study group based on the group assignment in the parent study (follow-on subjects). In addition, one group of naïve age-matched subjects will be recruited at the same study sites. Subjects who had received 4 doses of rMenB+OMV NZ will have one visit including one blood draw. Subjects who had received two catch-up doses in V72P13E1 will receive a third dose boost and will have 3 blood samples drawn. Naïve subjects will receive two catch-up doses and have 3 blood samples drawn.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing rMenB+OMV NZ in people with Meningococcal Disease, run by Novartis Vaccines at 19 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 10 inclusion and 18 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 10 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in Finland, Czechia. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 10 Apr 2015). 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?

Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) to Assess Antibody Persistence at 12 Months After a Booster Dose of rMenB+OMV NZ Vaccination. (time frame: 12 months post booster (fourth) 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 10 Apr 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
