About this study

Official title: Immunogenicity and Safety of a Single Dose of a Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y and W-135) Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine (SP284) in Japanese Subjects

This study is designed to assess the safety and immunogenicity of a single dose of Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y and W-135) Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine (SP284) to support registration of the product in Japan.

Primary Objective:

Read more
  • To describe the seroprotection rate [% of subjects with serum bactericidal assay using baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR) ≥1:128] to meningococcal antigens (serogroups A, C, Y and W-135) following vaccination with SP284 vaccine in subjects 2 through 55 years of age

  • To describe the immune responses to meningococcal antigens (serogroups A, C, Y and W-135) following vaccination with SP284 vaccine in subjects 2 through 55 years of age.
Read the detailed description

All participants will receive a single injection of Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y and W-135) Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate vaccine on Day 0 and undergo immunogenicity assessment and safety monitoring post-vaccination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Serum Bovine Albumin Baby Rabbit (SBA-BR) Titers of >=1:128 Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine

    Functional antibody activity against meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y and W-135 antigens were determined by using a serum bovine assay using a baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR). Sero protection was defined as SBA-BR titer of ≥ 1:128.

    Measured: 28 Days post-vaccination

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Participants With Serum Bovine Albumin Baby Rabbit (SBA-BR) Titers of >=1:8 Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine

    Functional antibody activity against meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y and W-135 antigens were determined by using a serum bovine assay using a baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR).

    Measured: 28 Days post-vaccination

  2. Number of Participants With a 4-Fold Rise in Serum Bovine Albumin Baby Rabbit (SBA-BR) Titers on Day 28 From Day 0 Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine.

    Functional antibody activity against meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y and W-135 antigens were determined by using a serum bovine assay using a baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR).

    Measured: 28 Days post-vaccination

  3. Serum Bovine Albumin Baby Rabbit (SBA-BR) Geometric Mean Titers Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine

    Functional antibody activity against meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y and W-135 antigens were determined by using a serum bovine assay using a baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR).

    Measured: Days 0 and 28 post-vaccination

  4. Serum Bovine Albumin Baby Rabbit (SBA-BR) Geometric Mean of Individual Titer Ratio Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine

    Functional antibody activity against meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y and W-135 antigens were determined by using a serum bovine assay using a baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR).

    Measured: 28 Days post-vaccination

  5. Number of Participants Reporting at Least One Solicited Injection Site or Systemic Reactions Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine

    Solicited injection site reactions: Pain, Erythema and Swelling. Solicited systemic reactions: Fever (temperature), Headache, Malaise, and Myalgia.

    Grade 3 solicited reactions were defined as: Pain incapacitating (children) and prevents daily activities (adolescents and adults). Fever ≥ 39.0°C; Headache, Malaise and Myalgia, significant, prevents daily activities.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 28 post-vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Meningococcal polysaccharide diphtheria toxoid conjugate in people with Meningitis and Meningococcal Meningitis, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 3 sites in Japan.

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 20 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 28 May 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Japan. 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 28 May 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?

Number of Participants With Serum Bovine Albumin Baby Rabbit (SBA-BR) Titers of >=1:128 Following Vaccination With One Dose of Menactra® Vaccine (time frame: 28 Days 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 28 May 2013.
