What is being measured

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

  1. Adjusted Human Serum Bactericidal Activity (hSBA) Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) Against N. Meningitidis Serogroup A for Each Vaccine Group, and Between-group Ratios

    hSBA titers against N.meningitidis serogroup A were calculated in terms of GMTs adjusted for pre-vaccination titer.

    Measured: At Day 29

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. hSBA GMTs Against Each of the N.Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y for Each Vaccine Group, and Between-group Ratios

    hSBA titers were calculated in terms of GMTs, at Day 1 and Day 29, against each of the N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 29

  2. Within-group Geometric Mean Ratios (GMRs) Against Each of the N.Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y

    Within-group ratios of hSBA GMTs against each of the N.meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y at Day 29 compared to Day 1.

    Measured: At Day 29

  3. Percentages of Subjects With a ≥4 Fold Rise in hSBA Antibody Titers for Each of the N.Meningitidis Serogroups A, C,W and Y for Each Vaccine Group, and Between-group Differences

    The percentages of subjects with a ≥ 4-fold rise in post-vaccination hSBA (at Day 29 compared to Day 1) and associated 2-sided 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed by group and for each N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y. A 4-fold rise in the hSBA titers is defined as: for individuals, whose pre-vaccination titers are < the LOD (limit of detection), the post-vaccination titers must be ≥ 4-fold the LOD or ≥ the LLOQ (lower of limit of quantitation) whichever is greater; for individuals, whose pre-vaccination titers are ≥ the LOD and ≤ the LLOQ, the post-vaccination titers must be at least four times the LLOQ; for individuals whose pre-vaccination titers are > the LLOQ, the post-vaccination titers must be at least four times the pre-vaccination

    Measured: At Day 29

  4. Percentages of Subjects With hSBA Titers ≥8 Against Each of the N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y for Each Vaccine Group, and Between-group Differences

    For each vaccine group the percentage of subjects with hSBA titer ≥8, and its associated two-sided 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed for each of the N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 29

  5. Percentages of Subjects With hSBA Titers ≥LLOQ Against Each of the N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y for Each Vaccine Group, and Between-group Differences

    For each vaccine group the percentage of subjects with hSBA titer ≥LLOQ, and its associated two-sided 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed for each of the N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 29

  6. Number of Subjects Reported With Solicited Local and Systemic AEs

    Number of subjects with solicited local and systemic AEs during the 7-days period (including the day of vaccination) after the vaccination.

    Measured: From Day 1 (6 hours) to Day 7 after vaccination

  7. Number of Subjects Reported With Other Indicators of Reactogenicity

    Number of subjects reporting other indicators of reactogenicity such as use of analgesics/antipyretics within 7 days after vaccination

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 7 after vaccination

  8. Number of Subjects Reported With Any Unsolicited AEs Within 29 Days After Vaccination

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered with a pharmaceutical product at any dose that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 29 after vaccination

  9. Number of Subjects Reported With AEs Leading to Withdrawal, Medically Attended AEs and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Medically attended AEs are defined as events for which the subject received medical attention defined as hospitalization, an emergency room visit, or a visit to or from medical personnel (medical doctor) for any reason. Any medically attended AE(s) is occurrence of any medically attended AE(s) regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Serious adverse event is any congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject or any untoward medical occurrence that results in death or life threatening or requires hospitalization or results in disability or incapacity

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 181 (during the entire study period)

  10. Number of Subjects Reported With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) Within 30 Minutes After Vaccination

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered with a pharmaceutical product at any dose that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    Measured: Within 30 minutes after vaccination at Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MenACWY liquid vaccine with approximately 30% MenA FS (GSK3536820A) and Licensed GSK MenACWY vaccine (Menveo) in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 30 sites in 5 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 11 inclusion and 26 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 9 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in Canada, Australia, Germany, Italy, Belgium. 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 9 Feb 2021). 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?

Adjusted Human Serum Bactericidal Activity (hSBA) Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) Against N. Meningitidis Serogroup A for Each Vaccine Group, and Between-group Ratios (time frame: At Day 29). 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 NCT03652610, 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 9 Feb 2021.
