Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: rMenB
6-8 months-old infants received 3 doses of rMenB vaccine without OMV-NZ at 6-8 months of age, 2 months later and 12 months of age.
Biological: rMenB
One dose (0.5 mL) of rMenB vaccine without OMV-NZ supplied as a full liquid formulation in a prefilled syringe was administered into the anterolateral area of the right thigh.
Other Names:
  • Serogroup B meningococcal recombinant vaccine without OMV-NZ
Experimental: rMenB+OMV
6-8 months-old infants received 3 doses of rMenB vaccine with OMV-NZ at 6-8 months of age, 2 months later and 12 months of age.
Biological: rMenB+OMV
One dose (0.5 mL) of rMenB vaccine with OMV-NZ supplied as a full liquid formulation in a prefilled syringe was administered into the anterolateral area of the right thigh.
Other Names:
  • Serogroup B meningococcal recombinant vaccine with OMV-NZ

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Subjects With Bactericidal Titers ≥1:4 Against Meningococcal Strains One Month After Second and Third Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects who achieved bactericidal titers ≥1:4 against meningococcal strains 44/76-SL, 5/99, NZ98/254 (major strains), UK P1.7-2,4, GB101, GB355 and GB364 (additional strains), evaluated using serum bactericidal assay, before vaccination (baseline) and one month after second vaccination (2 months later after vaccination at 6-8 months of age) and third vaccination (at 12 months of age).
Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
Percentage of Subjects With Bactericidal Titers ≥1:8 Against Meningococcal Strains One Month After Second and Third Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects who achieved bactericidal titers ≥1:8 against meningococcal strains 44/76-SL, 5/99, NZ98/254 (major strains), UK P1.7-2,4, GB101, GB355 and GB364 (additional strains), before vaccination (baseline) and one month after second vaccination (2 months after vaccination at 6-8 months) and third vaccination (at 12 months of age).
Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Subjects With Four-fold Rise in Bactericidal Titers Against Meningococcal Strains One Month After Second and Third Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: One month after second and third vaccination
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects who achieved a four-fold increase in bactericidal titers against meningococcal strains 44/76-SL, 5/99, NZ98/254 (major strains), UK P1.7-2,4, GB101, GB355 and GB364 (additional strains), one month after second vaccination (2 months after vaccination at 6-8 months) and third vaccination (at 12 months of age).
One month after second and third vaccination
Geometric Mean Bactericidal Titers Against Meningococcal Strains One Month After Second and Third Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
The immune response was measured as the geometric mean bactericidal titers directed against meningococcal strains 44/76-SL, 5/99, NZ98/254 (major strains), UK P1.7-2,4, GB101, GB355 and GB364 (additional strains), before vaccination (baseline) and one month after second vaccination (2 months after vaccination at 6-8 months) and third vaccination (at 12 months of age).
Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
Geometric Mean ELISA Concentration Against Meningococcal 287-953 Antigen One Month After Second and Third Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
The immune response was measured as the geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) against the meningococcal antigen 287-953, evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), before vaccination (baseline) and one month after second vaccination (2 months after vaccination at 6-8 months) and third vaccination (at 12 months of age).
Baseline and one month after second and third vaccination
Percentage of Subjects With Four-fold Rise in ELISA Concentration Against Meningococcal 287-953 Antigen One Month After Second and Third Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: One month after second and third vaccination
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects who achieved a four-fold increase in ELISA geometric mean concentrations against meningococcal 287-953 antigen, one month after second vaccination (2 months after vaccination at 6-8 months) and third vaccination (at 12 months of age).
One month after second and third vaccination
Number of Subjects Who Reported Solicited Local and Systemic Reactions After Each Vaccination of rMenB Vaccine With and Without OMV-NZ
Time Frame: Day 1 through day 7 after each vaccination
Safety was assessed as the number of subjects who reported solicited local and systemic reactions from day 1 through day 7 after each vaccination of rMenB vaccine with and without OMV-NZ administered at 6-8 months (vaccination 1), 2 months later (vaccination 2) and at 12 months (vaccination 3).
Day 1 through day 7 after each vaccination
