What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects With Any Solicited Adverse Events (AEs) Within 30 Minutes After Each Vaccination.

    Solicited signs and symptoms occurring within 30 minutes following each vaccination, include solicited local events (e.g. injection site erythema, induration and tenderness -threshold for Erythema and Induration: Type II- None [<10mm], Any[>=10 mm]), solicited systemic events (e.g. change in eating habits, sleepiness, irritability, vomiting, diarrhea, fever[ body temperature >=38°C measured preferably via tympanic route]), and any other solicited event like use of analgesic/antipyretics for treatment or for prophylaxis

    Measured: Within 30 minutes of each vaccination

  2. Number of Subjects With Any Solicited Local AEs From Day 1 to Day 7 After Each Vaccination

    Solicited local AEs reported from day 1 to day 7 after each vaccination were assessed. Assessed local symptoms include injection site erythema, injection site induration and injection site tenderness. Any = incidence of a particular symptom regardless of intensity grade.Threshold for Erythema and Induration: Type II None (<10 mm), Any (>=10 mm)

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 7 after each vaccination

  3. Number of Subjects With Any Solicited Systemic AEs From Day 1 to Day 7 After Each Vaccination.

    Solicited systemic AEs reported from day 1 to day 7 after each vaccination were assessed. Assessed systemic symptoms include change in eating habits, sleepiness, irritability, vomiting, diarrhea and fever (body temperature ≥ 38°C (100.4°F)).

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 7 after each vaccination

  4. Number of Subjects With Any Medically Attended Unsolicited AEs and AEs Leading to Premature Withdrawal

    An unsolicited adverse event is an adverse event that was not solicited using a Subject Diary and that was spontaneously communicated by a subject parent(s)/legal guardian(s)] who has signed the informed consent. All medically attended unsolicited AEs were collected from Day 1 to Visit 6.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Visit 6 (at 24 Months of age)

  5. Number of Subjects With Serious AEs (SAEs)

    Subjects reporting SAEs from day 1 to visit 6 (at 24 months of age) were assessed. A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in one or more of the following: death, is life-threatening, required or prolonged hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/or birth defect, An important and significant medical event that may not be immediately life threatening or resulting in death or hospitalization but, based upon appropriate medical judgment, may jeopardize the subject or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed above.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Visit 6 (At 24 months of age)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing MenACWY in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 6 sites in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 13 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 27 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in South Korea. 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 1 Apr 2019). 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 Subjects With Any Solicited Adverse Events (AEs) Within 30 Minutes After Each Vaccination. (time frame: Within 30 minutes of each vaccination). The study lists 8 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 27 Jun 2019.
