Active clinical trials for "Meningococcal Infections"

The purpose of the study is to perform the re-examination of Menactra® administered in the routine clinical settings in accordance with the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety regulation. Primary objective: To describe the safety profile after 1 dose of Menactra® administered from 9 months to 55 years of age under standard health care practice.

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.

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/aim of this study is to assess 1) the long-term persistence (4 to 7.5 years after the last dose) of bactericidal activity following primary vaccination with rMenB+OMV NZ in adolescents [who previously participated in parent studies V72_41 (NCT0142384) and V72P10 (NCT00661713)] and 2) the kinetics of immune response following booster vaccination with rMenB+OMV NZ

Use of brain natriuretic peptide to evaluate the cardiac function in the course of meningococcal septic shock or severe sepsis.

Primary objectives: To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W 135, measured by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) and baby rabbit complement (rSBA), induced by a single dose of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (A, C, Y, and W 135) Tetanus Protein (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine or Menomune® - A/C/Y/W 135. To describe the safety profile of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Menomune® - A/C/Y/W 135.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, reactogenicity and safety of a booster dose of GSK Biologicals' MenACWY-TT vaccine administered at 6 years post-primary vaccination with either GSK Biologicals' Hib-MenC-TT vaccine (Menitorix™) or Hiberix™ and Meningitec™, in healthy subjects aged 12-18 months at primary vaccination and to evaluate the long-term antibody persistence at 2 years after MenACWY-TT booster vaccination. This is an extension study of the Hib-MenC-TT-016 study (NCT number: NCT00326118).

The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of the meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY-TT) co-administered with Boostrix® versus each of the two vaccines given separately in healthy adolescents and young adults.

The aim of the study was to describe the safety and antibody response to booster administration with Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine in participants who received their first quadrivalent meningococcal Conjugate vaccine dose in the past 4-10 years. Primary Objective: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the vaccine seroresponse of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of a booster dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine compared to those observed following the administration of a booster dose of Menactra® in participants who were first vaccinated with 1 dose of a quadrivalent meningococcal vaccine 4 to 10 years before the booster dose. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the vaccine seroresponse of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W measured using human serum bactericidal assay (hSBA) in serum specimens collected 6 days after vaccination in a subset of 120 participants. To evaluate the antibody responses (geometric mean titers) to serogroups A, C, Y, and W measured using hSBA on Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 30 after vaccination. Observational Objectives: To describe the antibody titers against meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W measured by hSBA assessed at Day 0, Day 6, and Day 30 days after vaccination. To describe the antibody responses to the meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W before and 30 days after vaccination with MenACYW Conjugate vaccine or Menactra® measured by rabbit serum bactericidal assay (rSBA) in a subset of participants. To describe the safety profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine compared to that of a licensed Menactra® after booster vaccination.

This study was designed to conduct a comparative trial to further evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and antibody persistence of two doses of Novartis MenACWY conjugate vaccine, given 2 months apart, versus one dose of Novartis MenACWY conjugate vaccine in children 2 through 10 years of age.
