Immunogenicity & Safety Study of a Meningococcal Serogroup B Vaccine Given in a 3 Dose Schedule to Healthy Adolescents Aged 12-18 Yrs
This study has been completed.
Sponsored by: GlaxoSmithKline
Information provided by: GlaxoSmithKline
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00137917
  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of 3 doses of the meningococcal serogroup B vaccine when given, using either a 0-2-4 month or a 0-1-6 month schedule, to healthy adolescents aged 12-18 years; a control group will receive 2 doses of Havrix™ (0-6 months) and Meningitec™ (month 1).

Official Title: A Primary Vaccination Study to Evaluate Immunogenicity, Safety & Reactogenicity of 3 Doses of GSK Biologicals/Finlay’s Meningococcal B Candidate Vaccine Given Intramuscularly Using Either 0-2-4 Mth or 0-1-6 Mth Schedule to Healthy Subjects Aged 12-18 Yrs

Further study details as provided by GlaxoSmithKline:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Meningococcal serogroup B (MenB) immune response (i.e. at least a 4-fold increase in serum bactericidal activity [SBA] from pre-vaccination titer) at 1 month postvaccination for each MenB strain assayed

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • For each MenB strain assayed, pre and 1m post dose 2 and 3: SBA seropositivity, titer and immune response (post dose 2 only)
  • After each vaccination: grade 3 and any solicited symptoms (Day 0-14), unsolicited symptoms (Day 0-30)
  • Serious adverse events [SAEs] (whole study)

Estimated Enrollment: 450
Study Start Date: July 2002
Detailed Description:

The study is open; however, vaccines given to study group at 0-1-6 months and to control group will be administered in an observer-blind manner. 3 blood samplings for antibody testing: before vaccination and one month after the second and third vaccine doses.
