Study of the Safety and Immune Response of a Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine Administered to Healthy Adolescents

May 17, 2018 updated by: Novartis Vaccines

A Phase 2, Randomized, Single-blind, Controlled, Multicenter Study to Compare the Safety and Immune Response of One Dose of Novartis Meningococcal ACWY Conjugate Vaccine With the Safety and Immune Response of One Dose of Licensed Meningococcal ACWY Polysaccharide Vaccine Administered to Healthy Adolescents 11 to 17 Years of Age

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Novartis Meningococcal ACWY Conjugate Vaccine in comparison to licensed meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine administered to healthy adolescents ages 11 to 17 years.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Prevention
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: MenACWY-CRM(Ad+)
Subjects received one single dose of adjuvanted formulation of conjugate vaccine.
Experimental: MenACWY-CRM(Ad-)
Subjects received one single dose of unadjuvanted formulation of conjugate vaccine.
Active Comparator: MenACWY- PS
Subjects received one single dose of the polysaccharide vaccine.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentages of Subjects With N.Meningitidis Human Serum Bactericidal Activity (hSBA) Titers≥ 1:4, After One Dose of Either MenACWY-CRM Vaccine, With Adjuvant or Without Adjuvant, or MenACWY-PS Vaccine
Time Frame: 1 month after vaccination
Immune response of a single dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, with adjuvant or without adjuvant compared to that of one dose of MenACWY polysaccharide (PS) vaccine, one month after administration to subjects aged 11 to 17 years, as measured by the percentage of subjects with hSBA titers >1:4 directed against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y
1 month after vaccination

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
hSBA Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) After One Dose Of MenACWY-CRM Vaccine, With Adjuvant or Without Adjuvant or MenACWY-PS Vaccine
Time Frame: 1 month after vaccination
Immune response of one dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, with adjuvant or without adjuvant or MenACWY-PS vaccine, one month after administration in subjects 11 to 17 years of age, as measured by hSBA geometric mean titers (GMTs) against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y.
1 month after vaccination
Percentages of Subjects With hSBA Titers≥ 1:4, After One Dose Of Either MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) or MenACWY-PS Vaccine
Time Frame: 12 months after vaccination
Immune response of one dose of MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) compared to that of one dose of MenACWY polysaccharide(MenACWY-PS) vaccine, 12 months after administration to subjects aged 11 to 17 years, as measured by the percentage of subjects with human complement serum bactericidal activity (hSBA) titers≥1:4 against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y. The endpoint point compares only data of unadjuvanted formulation of the conjugate vaccine to the polysaccharide vaccine.
12 months after vaccination
hSBA Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) After One Dose Of Either MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) or MenACWY-PS Vaccine
Time Frame: 12 months after vaccination
Immune response of one dose of MenACWY-CRM(Ad-) conjugate vaccine compared with that of MenACWY-PS vaccine, 12 months after administration in subjects 11 to 17 years of age, as measured by hSBA geometric mean titers (GMTs) against N meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y.The endpoint compares only data of unadjuvanted formulation of the conjugate vaccine to the polysaccharide vaccine.
12 months after vaccination
Numbers of Subjects 11 to 17 Years of Age Who Reported Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events After the Vaccination
Time Frame: Day 1 to Day 7
Safety was assessed as the number of subjects 11 to 17 years of age who reported solicited local and systemic adverse events from day 1 up to and including day 7 after the vaccination of either MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine, with adjuvant or without adjuvant or MenACWY-PS vaccine.
Day 1 to Day 7
