Filter by:This was an open-label, multi-center study to describe the immune persistence of the priming dose and describe the immunogenicity and safety of a booster dose of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y, and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) conjugate vaccine in children in Finland who had been vaccinated 3 years earlier as toddlers with either MenACYW conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® as part of the MET54 study (NCT03205358). The objectives were: - To describe the antibody persistence of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W before a booster dose in children who received either MenACYW conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® 3 years earlier as toddlers. - To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W 30 days after a booster dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine in children who received either MenACYW conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® 3 years earlier as toddlers. - To describe the antibody responses against tetanus toxoid 30 days after a booster dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine in children who received either MenACYW conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® 3 years earlier as toddlers. - To describe the safety profile of a booster dose of MenACYW conjugate vaccine in children who received either MenACYW conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® 3 years earlier as toddlers.
MenACWY (Menveo) is a GSK vaccine intended for protection against disease caused by meningococcal bacteria groups A, C, W and Y in infants, children and adults, licensed in more than 60 countries. The purpose of this study is to compare the immunogenicity of the currently licensed MenACWY vaccine with the investigational MenACWY liquid vaccine aged for different lengths of time by storage at 2-8ºC.
A fever and a non-blanching rash is a relatively common reason for a child to attend an emergency department. A fever and a non-blanching rash can be an early sign of a life-threatening infection known as meningococcal disease. The aim of the PIC study is to determine how best to diagnose early meningococcal disease in children. In particular the investigators are interested in researching how quick bedside tests can be used to do this.
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety profile of a single dose of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y, and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine when given alone compared to that of the licensed Meningococcal groups A, C, W 135 and Y (NIMENRIX®) Conjugate vaccine. Observational objectives: - To evaluate the antibody responses to the antigens (serogroups A, C, Y, and W) present in MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and NIMENRIX® measured by serum bactericidal assay using baby rabbit complement (rSBA) and by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) - To evaluate the antibody responses against tetanus in participants who received MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or NIMENRIX® vaccine - To evaluate the safety profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and NIMENRIX®
In the UK, babies receive their vaccinations according to a standard schedule, irrespective of their gestation at birth. This policy is designed so that all babies are protected as early as possible from vaccine preventable diseases such as polio, diphtheria, tetanus, rotavirus, pertussis (whooping cough), Haemophilus influenzae type B, pneumococcal disease and now meningococcal B disease. The 4CMenB vaccination (Bexsero®) was added to the UK schedule in September 2015 and there has been no research looking at whether the vaccine gives the same protection to babies born early as it does to those born at term. The Investigators want to compare two different schedules of 4CMenB and see if one gives better protection to babies born prematurely. It is possible that an extra 4CMenB dose (i.e. three doses in early infancy instead of two) will offer better protection for premature babies. This is what the Investigators are trying to find out through this study.
To estimate the effect on carriage, all year 10, 11, and 12 students will be offered 4CMenB vaccination in South Australia through schools over the study period with 50% of the students enrolled receiving the vaccine in 2017 and 50% in 2018. In year 10 and 11 students, posterior pharyngeal swabs will be obtained at baseline and 12 months post baseline to estimate the difference in carriage prevalence of all genogroups of N. meningitidis between vaccinated and unvaccinated participants.
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the immunogenicity and describe the safety of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine compared to the licensed Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y and W 135) Oligosaccharide Diphtheria CRM197 (MENVEO®) vaccine in children 2 to 9 years of age in the United States (US) and Puerto Rico. Primary objective: - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the vaccine seroresponse to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine compared to that observed following the administration of a single dose of MENVEO® in children aged 2 to 9 years. Secondary objectives: - To compare the serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) antibody geometric mean titers (GMTs) of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine to those observed following the administration of MENVEO® in children 2 to 9 years of age. - To evaluate the hSBA antibody GMTs of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and those observed following the administration of MENVEO® in children 2 to 5 years of age, and in children 6 to 9 years of age, respectively. - To evaluate the hSBA vaccine seroresponse to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W before and 30 days (+14 days) post-vaccination in children 2 to 5 years of age, and in children 6 to 9 years of age, respectively. Observational objective: - To describe the safety profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and that of the licensed MENVEO®.
The purpose/aim of this study is to assess the safety and antibody response to vaccination with a booster dose of Menveo given 4-6 years after primary MenACWY vaccination and to assess the safety and antibody response to a single dose of Menveo given to vaccine-naïve subjects
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the immunogenicity and describe the safety of a single dose of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine compared to the licensed Meningococcal polysaccharide groups A, C, W-135 and Y (Nimenrix®) Conjugate vaccine in toddlers 12 to 23 months of age in the European Union (EU). The toddlers were either meningococcal vaccine naïve or had received monovalent meningococcal C (MenC) vaccination during infancy to evaluate any potential impact of the meningococcal vaccine background on the immunogenicity and safety profile of the investigational product. Primary Objectives: - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody response to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W after a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® in toddlers who either were meningococcal vaccine naïve or had received monovalent MenC vaccination during infancy. - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody response to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W after a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® in meningococcal vaccine naïve toddlers. Secondary Objectives: - To compare the antibody responses (geometric mean titers [GMTs]) to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W after a dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® as measured by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) in toddlers who either were meningococcal vaccine naïve or had received monovalent MenC vaccination during infancy. - To compare the antibody responses (GMTs) to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W after a dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® as measured by hSBA in meningococcal vaccine naïve toddlers. - To compare the antibody responses (GMTs) to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W after a dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Nimenrix® as measured by hSBA in toddlers who received monovalent MenC vaccination during infancy.
The purpose of this study is to compare the persistence of 2 or 3 doses of the GSK MenABCWY vaccine, or 2 doses of GSK rMenB+OMV vaccine (Bexsero) administered to healthy adolescents at approximately 24 months after the last meningococcal vaccination in the parent study V102_15(NCT02212457), compared with baseline antibody levels in vaccine naïve subjects at similar age at enrolment.
