Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Infections, Meningococcal
• Intervention / Treatment: Biological: Meningococcal vaccine 134612; Biological: Menactra®

Detailed Description

Subjects 11-25 years of age will be randomized to receive either the meningococcal vaccine GSK134612 or Menactra®. An additional non-randomized group of subjects aged 10 years (< 11 years of age) will be enrolled to receive meningococcal vaccine GSK134612 only (At the time the study begun, Menactra® was only licensed in the United States for individuals above 11 years of age and therefore could not be used as a control vaccine in subjects less than 11 years old).

This study will be single-blind for the subjects 11 to 25 years of age and open for the subjects 10 to < 11 years of age.

• Study Type: Interventional
• Enrollment (Actual): 873
