About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Safety and Immunogenicity of Meningococcal B and Meningococcal ACWY Vaccine in at Risk Population (ProPositive Study)

This study aims to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and tolerability of co-administration of vaccinations for meningitis B (Bexsero®) and meningitis ACWY (Menveo®) in adults and children aged 10-45 years living with HIV. All participants will be vaccinated with both Menveo® and Bexsero® on days 0 and 30. Immunogenicity will be determined on venous blood sampled at days 0 and 60. Adverse effects will be recorded to evaluate safety.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in hSBA geometric mean titres to relevant strains of meningococcal B following two doses of the 4CmenB vaccine (Bexsero®) in people living with HIV

    The human complement serum bactericidal assay (hSBA) mean titres against relevant strains of meningococcal B at baseline and one month after completion of vaccination.

    Measured: Day 0 (baseline) and Day 60

  2. The proportion of participants who achieve at least a four fold increase in hSBA titres.

    Blood will be taken one month after the second vaccine and serum tested for hSBA titres. The proportion of participants who achieve at least a four fold increase in hSBA titres will be calculated.

    Measured: Day 60

  3. The proportion of participants who achieve a 'protective' hSBA titre of >1:4 after two doses of Bexsero

    Blood will be taken one month after the second vaccine and serum tested for hSBA titres. The proportion of participants who are deemed to have protective titres >1:4 will be calculated.

    Measured: Day 60

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The incidence of solicited and unsolicited adverse and serious adverse events after two doses of MenACWY (Menveo®) and 4CMenB (Bexsero®) vaccines when co-administered in people living with HIV

    We will assess the following:

    1. The incidence of subjects with solicited local and systemic AEs up to 7 days (including the day of vaccination) after Visits 1 and 2.
    2. The incidence of subjects with any other (unsolicited) AEs, including any SAEs, AEs leading to withdrawal and medically attended AEs up to 7 days (including the day of vaccination) after Visits 1 and 2.
    3. The incidence of subjects with SAEs and AEs leading to withdrawal throughout the study period.

    Measured: Day 7 after vaccines 1 and 2

  2. The geometric mean titres to Meningococcal ACWY antigens after two doses of the MenACWY (Menveo®) vaccine in people with HIV at one month after the second vaccination

    We will measure rSBA GMTs for MenACWY antigens at baseline and Visit3.

    Measured: Day 60

  3. The proportion of subjects with at least a four fold change in rSBA from baseline to 30 days after the second vaccine

    The proportion of subjects with at least 4 fold increase in rSBA against relevant MenACWY serogroups from baseline to Visit3.

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 60

  4. The proportion of subjects with "protective" rSBA titres >1:8 against relevant MenACWY serogroups after two doses of Menveo

    The proportion of subjects with "protective" rSBA titres >1:8 against relevant MenACWY serogroups at Visit3.

    Measured: Day 60

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bexsero® (meningitis B vaccine) and Menveo® (meningitis ACWY vaccine) in people with Hiv and Meningitis, Meningococcal, run by St George's, University of London at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 1 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Catherine Cosgrove, MBBS PhD MRCP (+44(0)2087252316, ccosgrov@sgul.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in hSBA geometric mean titres to relevant strains of meningococcal B following two doses of the 4CmenB vaccine (Bexsero®) in people living with HIV (time frame: Day 0 (baseline) and Day 60). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03682939, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 2019.
