About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Prevention of Meningococcal Infection focused on measuring Prevention of Meningococcal Meningitis, vaccines, conjugate, immunology, infant, antibody persistence

Eligibility Criteria

8 Weeks - 11 Weeks (Child)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: healthy infants Exclusion Criteria: previously ascertained or suspected disease caused by N. meningitidis previous household contact with an individual with a positive culture of N. meningitidis serogroup C

Sites / Locations

  • Centre for Clinical Vaccinology and Tropical Medicine, Churchill Hospital

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

To establish at which day meningococcal C specific B cells are detectable in the blood of healthy infants following first and third immunisation with MenC Conjugate Vaccine as determined by Men C specific B-cell ELISPot assay.

Secondary Outcome Measures

To establish how long the B cells persist in the blood
To note the difference between plasma cell response following the first and third MenC vaccination.
To determine the immune response to Neisseria meningitidis serogroup C 26-34 days after the third immunisation
