About this study

Official title: A Phase IIIb, Open-Label, Controlled, Multi-Center Study to Evaluate the Persistence Of Antibody Responses Among Children Who Previously Received Novartis MenACWY Conjugate Vaccine or Meningococcal C Conjugate Vaccine

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the persistence of bactericidal antibodies in children of approximately 22 to 45 months of age previously enrolled in the V59P22 study (NCT00667602) who received Novartis MenACWY Conjugate Vaccine or Meningococcal C Conjugate Vaccine. This is measured by percentage of subjects with human Serum Bactericidal Assay (hSBA) titers ≥ 1:8 directed against Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A, C, W-135, and Y. In addition the response one month post an additional dose of Novartis MenACWY will be measured by percentage of subjects with hSBA titers ≥ 1:8 and GMTs.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects With Persisting Serum Bactericidal Antibody Titers ≥1:8, Upto 13-33 Months After Primary Vaccination With Either MenACWY-CRM or MenC Vaccine

    The percentage of subjects with persisting serum bactericidal antibody (hSBA)titers ≥1:8 against Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A,C,W,Y, 13-33 months after receiving either one or two doses of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine or one dose of MenC vaccine in parent study, is reported.

    The functional bactericidal antibodies response against N. meningitidis serogroups was measured with the serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA)

    Measured: From 13-33 months post last vaccination in parent study (V59P22)

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Serum Bactericidal Antibody Titers ≥1:8, One Month After MenACWY-CRM Booster Vaccination

    The serum antibody response following a booster dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine in children, who had previously received either one or two doses of the same vaccine in the parent study, is reported as percentage of subjects with hSBA titers ≥1:8 against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C,W,Y.

    Measured: 1 month post booster

  3. Geometric Mean Titers in Children,One Month After MenACWY-CRM Booster Vaccination

    The serum antibody titers following a booster dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine in children, who had previously received either one or two doses of the same vaccine in the parent study, are reported as geometric mean titers (GMTs) against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C, W,Y.

    Measured: 1 month post booster vaccination

  4. Percentage of Subjects (Who Had Previously Received MenC Vaccine) With Serum Bactericidal Antibody Titers ≥ 1:8, After One Dose of MenACWY-CRM Vaccination

    The serum antibody response following a dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine in children, who had previously received one dose of MenC vaccine in the parent study, is reported as percentage of subjects with hSBA titers ≥1:8 against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C, W,Y

    Measured: 1 month after vaccination

  5. Geometric Mean Titers in Children (Who Previously Received MenC Vaccine) One Month After One Dose of MenACWY-CRM Vaccine

    The serum antibody titers following one dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine in children, who had previously received one dose of MenC vaccine in the parent study, are reported as GMTs against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C,W,Y

    Measured: 1 month post vaccination

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Persisting Geometric Mean Titers in Children, 13-33 Months After Primary Vaccination With Either MenACWY-CRM or MenC Vaccine

    The persisting serum bactericidal antibody titers in children, 13-33 months after receiving either one or two doses of MenACWY-CRM vaccine or one dose of Men C vaccine in the parent study, are reported as GMTs against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C, W,Y

    Measured: From 13-33 months post last vaccination in parent study (V59P22)

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Serum Bactericidal Titers ≥1:8, Who Previously Received 1 Primary Dose of Either MenACWY-CRM or Men C Vaccine

    Comparison of serum antibody responses following one dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine in children, who had previously received either one dose of the same vaccine or one dose of Men C vaccine in the parent study, is reported as percentage of subjects with hSBA titers ≥1:8 against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C,W,Y

    Measured: 1 month post vaccination

  3. Geometric Mean Titers Following One Dose of MenACWY-CRM Vaccine in Children Who Previously Received 1 Primary Dose of Either MenACWY-CRM or Men C Vaccine

    Comparison of serum antibody titers following a one dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine in children, who had previously received either one dose of the same vaccine or one dose of MenC vaccine in the parent study, are reported as GMTs against N. meningitidis serogroups A,C, W,Y

    Measured: 1 month post vaccination

  4. Number of Children Reporting Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events (AEs) After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination

    The safety and tolerability of MenACWY-CRM vaccine in children (who had previously received either one or two doses of MenACWY-CRM vaccine or one dose of MenC vaccine in the parent study) is assessed in terms of number of subjects reporting solicited local and systemic AEs after MenACWY-CRM vaccine.

    Measured: Day 1-7 after vaccination

  5. Number of Children Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination

    The safety of MenACWY-CRM vaccine in children (who had previously received either one or two doses of MenACWY-CRM vaccine or one dose of MenC vaccine in the parent study) is assessed in terms of number of subjects reporting any unsolicited AEs (day 1 to day 7); serious AEs and AEs necessitating medical attention/or premature withdrawal (day 1 to day 28) after MenACWY-CRM vaccine.

    Measured: Day 1-28 after vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing MenACWY-CRM in people with Meningococcal Disease, run by Novartis Vaccines at 11 sites in Germany.

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 4 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 18 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Germany. 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 18 Oct 2013). 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 Persisting Serum Bactericidal Antibody Titers ≥1:8, Upto 13-33 Months After Primary Vaccination With Either MenACWY-CRM or MenC Vaccine (time frame: From 13-33 months post last vaccination in parent study (V59P22)). The study lists 5 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 NCT01345721, 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 18 Jun 2018.
