Post-licensure Safety Surveillance Study of Routine Use of Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y, and W-135) Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine (Menactra®) in Recipients 2 to 10 Years of Age.

To further characterize the safety profile of Menactra vaccine and to identify any signals of potentially vaccine-related adverse events (AEs) not detected during pre-licensure studies.

Menactra Vaccine Recipients

Children 2 years through 10 years of age who received Menactra vaccine within Kaiser Permanente during the study period. They served as their own controls for evaluation of acute (Days 0-30) events. Rates of events occurring during Days 0-30 following vaccination were compared to rates of events occurring during Days 31-60 following vaccination.

Six-month surveillance: For each individual receiving Menactra vaccine, the rate of an event in the 30-day follow-up period was compared with the rate of the same event in the 31-180-day follow-up period using age, sex, and seasonality as covariates in Cox regression analyses.

Menactra vaccine was administered according to routine clinical practice.
Biological: None administered in this study

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Summary of Diagnoses With Elevated Findings for Risk-Window vs. Control-Window Comparisons at the 5% Significance Level.
Time Frame: Day 0 up to Day 30 post-vaccination
Incidence rates for each diagnosis were calculated as the number of events divided by person-time and expressed as events per 1,000 person-months in each comparison window. Clinical setting is given in parenthesis as (H) for hospital.
Day 0 up to Day 30 post-vaccination
Summary of Diagnoses With Elevated Findings for Risk-Window vs. Control-Window Comparisons at the 5% Significance Level.
Time Frame: Day 31 up to Day 180 post-vaccination
Incidence rates for each diagnosis were calculated as the number of events divided by person-time and expressed as events per 1,000 person-months in each comparison window. Clinical setting is given in parenthesis as (H) for hospital.
Day 31 up to Day 180 post-vaccination

Other Outcome Measures

Time Frame: Day 0 up to 6 months post-vaccination
Only persons who received Menactra vaccine during the study period were surveyed and included in this outcome.
Day 0 up to 6 months post-vaccination
