About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Blinded, Peer-controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of ACYW135 Group Meningococcal Polysaccharide Conjugate Vaccine (CRM197 Vector) in a Population Aged 18-59 Years

This is a randomized, observer-blind, peer-controlled study. There will be 2 treatment groups, screened subjects were given study numbers in the order of enrollment and randomly assigned to the test and control groups in a 1:1 ratio. Subjects were required to complete a 1-dose immunization program with 0.5 ml of vaccine in both the test and control groups.

Being tested
MCV4, MPSV4

What is being measured

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

  1. Meningococcal antibody positive conversion rates for groups A, C, Y, and W135 in all subjects

    Measured: 30 days post immunization

  2. Geometric mean titer (GMT) of antibodies to groups A, C, Y, and W135 in all subjects

    Measured: 30 days post immunization

  3. Incidence of adverse reactions in all subjects

    Measured: Within 30 mins after immunization

  4. Incidence of adverse reactions/events in all subjects

    Measured: 7 days post immunization

  5. Incidence of adverse reactions/events in all subjects

    Measured: Within 30 days after immunization

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Meningococcal antibody positivity for groups A, C, Y, and W135

    Measured: 30 days post immunization

  2. Geometric mean multiplicity (GMI) of increase for groups A, C, Y, and W135

    Measured: 30 days post immunization

  3. Antibody titer ≥1:128 ratio for groups A, C, Y, and W135

    Measured: 30 days post immunization

  4. Meningococcal antibody positivity for groups A, C, Y, and W135 in selected subjects

    Measured: 180 days after immunization

  5. GMT for groups A, C, Y, and W135 in selected subjects

    Measured: 180 days after immunization

  6. GMI for groups A, C, Y, and W135 in selected subjects

    Measured: 180 days after immunization

  7. Antibody titer ≥1:128 ratio for groups A, C, Y, and W135 in selected subjects

    Measured: 180 days after immunization

  8. Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) in all subjects

    Measured: Within 180 days after immunization

  9. Incidence of pregnancy events in all subjects

    Measured: Within 180 days after immunization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing MCV4 and MPSV4 in people with Meningococcal Meningitis, run by CanSino Biologics Inc. at 3 sites in China.

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 11 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jul 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Meningococcal antibody positive conversion rates for groups A, C, Y, and W135 in all subjects (time frame: 30 days post immunization). 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?
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 29 Jul 2025.
