About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Open-label, Single-center Study to Describe the Immunogenicity and Safety of a Single Dose of MenACYW Conjugate Vaccine in Participants Aged 12 Months and Older in Vietnam

The MEQ00074 study was a Phase III, open-label, single-center study aimed at describing the immunogenicity and safety of a single dose of investigational quadrivalent Meningococcal Polysaccharide (serogroups A, C, W, and Y) Tetanus Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine (MenACYW conjugate vaccine) in participants aged 12 months and older in Vietnam.

The primary objectives of the study were:

  • To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, W, and Y before and 30 days after the administration of a single dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine
  • To describe the safety profile of a single dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine The duration of each participant's participation will be approximately 30 to 44 days.
Read the detailed description

The duration of each participant's participation was approximately 30 to 44 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Antibodies Against Meningococcal Serogroups A, C, Y, and W

    Functional meningococcal antibody activity against serogroups A, C, Y, and W was measured in a serum bactericidal assay utilizing the human complement (hSBA).

    Measured: Day 1 (pre-vaccination) and Day 31 (30 days post-vaccination on Day 1)

  2. Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement Titers >=4-Fold Rise From Pre-Vaccination to Post-Vaccination

    Functional meningococcal antibody activity against serogroups A, C, Y, and W was measured by hSBA. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.

    Measured: Day 1 (pre-vaccination) and Day 31 (30 days post-vaccination on Day 1)

  3. Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement Titers >=1:4 and >=1:8

    Functional meningococcal antibody activity against serogroups A, C, Y, and W was measured by hSBA. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.

    Measured: Day 1 (pre-vaccination) and Day 31 (30 days post-vaccination on Day 1)

  4. Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement Vaccine Seroresponse for Serogroups A, C, Y, and W

    Functional meningococcal antibody activity against serogroups A, C, Y, and W was measured by hSBA. hSBA vaccine seroresponse was defined as follows: for a participant with a pre-vaccination titer <1:8, the post-vaccination titer must be >=1:16, and for a participant with a pre-vaccination titer >=1:8, the post-vaccination titer must be at least 4-fold greater than the pre-vaccination titer. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.

    Measured: Day 1 (pre-vaccination) and Day 31 (30 days post-vaccination on Day 1)

  5. Number of Participants With Immediate Unsolicited Systemic Adverse Events (AEs)

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the study vaccine. An unsolicited AE was an observed AE that did not fulfill the conditions of solicited reactions, i.e., pre-listed in the case report form (CRF) in terms of diagnosis and onset window post-vaccination. Immediate events were recorded to capture medically relevant unsolicited systemic AEs (including those related to the study vaccine administered) which occurred within the first 30 minutes after vaccination.

    Measured: Up to 30 minutes post-vaccination on Day 1

  6. Number of Participants With Solicited Injection Site Reactions and Systemic Reactions

    A solicited reaction was an "expected" adverse reaction (AR) (sign or symptom) observed and reported under the conditions (nature and onset) pre-listed in the protocol and CRF. An injection site reaction was an AR at and around the injection site considered to be related to the study vaccine administered and were commonly inflammatory reactions. Systemic ARs were all ARs that were not injection site reactions and included systemic manifestations such as headache, fever, as well as localized or topical manifestations.

    Measured: From the study vaccine administration (Day 1) up to 7 days post-vaccination, up to Day 8

  7. Number of Participants With Unsolicited Non-Serious Adverse Events

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the study vaccine. An unsolicited AE was an observed AE that did not fulfill the conditions of solicited reactions, i.e., pre-listed in the CRF in terms of diagnosis and onset window post-vaccination.

    Measured: From the study vaccine administration (Day 1) up to 30 days post-vaccination (Day 31)

  8. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs)

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the study vaccine. An SAE was any AE that, at any dose, resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect or was other medically important event. An AESI (serious or non-serious) was one of scientific and medical concern specific to the Sponsor's study vaccine or program, for which ongoing monitoring and rapid communication by the investigator to the Sponsor was appropriate.

    Measured: From the study vaccine administration (Day 1) up to 30 days post-vaccination (Day 31)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, W, and Y) Tetanus Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine in people with Meningococcal Infection and Healthy Volunteers, run by Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company at 4 sites in Vietnam.

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 25 inclusion and 31 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 17 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Vietnam. 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 17 Sep 2025). 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?

Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Antibodies Against Meningococcal Serogroups A, C, Y, and W (time frame: Day 1 (pre-vaccination) and Day 31 (30 days post-vaccination on Day 1)). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06228586, 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 17 Sep 2025.
