Active clinical trials for "Meningitis, Meningococcal"

This Phase III, open-label, randomized, parallel-group, active-controlled, multicenter study was conducted to assess the immunogenicity and safety of a single dose of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine when administered alone and in combination with other pediatric vaccines in healthy toddlers in South Korea, Thailand, the Russian Federation, and Mexico. Primary Objective: To describe the immunogenicity profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine administered alone or concomitantly with licensed pediatric vaccine(s) (measles-mumps-rubella vaccine [MMR] + Varicella, diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis B, poliomyelitis, and Haemophilus influenzae type-b Conjugate vaccine [DTaP-IPV-HB-Hib], or pneumococcal Conjugate vaccine [PCV13]). Secondary Objective: To describe the immunogenicity profile of licensed pediatric vaccine(s) (MMR + Varicella, DTaP-IPV-HB-Hib, or PCV13) when administered alone or concomitantly with MenACYW Conjugate vaccine.

This study evaluates the effect of antibiotic prophylaxis with ciprofloxacin, given to the contacts of meningitis cases, on the overall attack rate of meningitis during an epidemic. One third of enrolled villages will receive standard care; in one-third of villages, household contacts of meningitis cases will be offered a single dose of oral ciprofloxacin; and in one-third of villages, the entire village will be offered a single dose of oral ciprofloxacin after the notification of the first case in the village.

Out of the 13 identified serogroups of Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) the six serogroups (A, B, C, W, Y and X) are responsible for majority of infections. Presently available vaccines effectively protect against A, B, C, W and Y serogroups; but no vaccine that is protective against serogroup X is available yet. Serum Institute of India Private Limited (SIIPL) has developed a conjugate vaccine against serogroups A, C, Y, W and X (NmCV-5). The first-in-human Phase 1 study was among 60 healthy adults in USA did not show no any safety issues. This phase 2 study is designed to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of the non-adjuvanted and adjuvanted formulations of NmCV-5 in healthy children 12-16 months of age, in comparison with the licensed quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (Menactra®). Both vaccines will be administered in two dose schedule 3 months apart. among vaccine-naïve healthy subjects in Mali. Safety will be assessed by collecting solicited reactions till day 7 post each dose whereas adverse events will be collected throughout the study. Each subject will be followed up for 84 days post each vaccine dose. The vaccine immunogenicity will measured using a rabbit complement serum bactericidal activity assay (rSBA).

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.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate immune lot consistency of Meningococcal Polysaccharide (Serogroups A, C, Y and W) Tetanus Toxoid (MenACYW) Conjugate vaccine and the immune non-inferiority compared to the licensed vaccine Menactra®, and describe the safety and additional immunogenicity of these study vaccines in adolescents and adults 10 to 55 years of age in the United States (US). Primary Objectives: To demonstrate the immune lot consistency of the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine with respect to serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) geometric mean titers (GMTs). To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine (pooled Lots 1 to 3) compared to those observed following the administration of a single dose of Menactra®. Secondary Objective: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine (pooled Lots 1 to 3) compared to those observed following the administration of a single dose of Menactra® in the adult population (18 to 55 years old). To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of a single dose of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine (pooled Lots 1 to 3) compared to those observed following the administration of a single dose of Menactra® in the adolescent population (10 to 17 years old). To compare the hSBA vaccine seroresponses of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W for each of 3 lots of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine 30 days (+14 days) after vaccination. To compare the hSBA antibody GMTs of meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W following the administration of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine to those observed following the administration of Menactra®. Observational Objectives: To describe the safety profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and that of the licensed Menactra®.

This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a booster dose of a meningococcal vaccine formulation in adolescents.

The proposed study is aimed at assessing the safety and immunogenicity of rMenB+OMV NZ when administered alone without routine infant vaccines to healthy infants in their first year of life according to different two and three dose immunization schedules, which are suitable to be adopted by various national programs. This study will also investigate antibody persistence post primary series and administration of a subsequent booster dose of rMenB+OMV NZ at 11 months of age. In addition, this study will assess the safety and immunogenicity of two catch-up doses of rMenB+OMV NZ when administered to healthy children 2 to 10 years of age. This study will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the concomitant administration of rMenB+OMV NZ with meningococcal C conjugate vaccine (MenC-CRM) according to a 3, 5 and 12-month schedule.

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 vaccine MENVEO® in adolescents 10 to 17 years of age in the United States (US). This study also evaluated the immunogenicity and safety of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine when given alone compared to when given concomitantly with tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine and human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine. Primary objective: To evaluate the antibody responses to the antigens present in MenACYW Conjugate vaccine when MenACYW Conjugate vaccine was given alone compared to those when MENVEO vaccine was given alone. Secondary objective: To evaluate the antibody responses to the antigens present in MenACYW Conjugate vaccine, when MenACYW Conjugate vaccine was given concomitantly with Tdap and HPV vaccines, compared to those when it was given alone. To evaluate the antibody responses to the antigens present in Tdap vaccine, when Tdap vaccine was given concomitantly with MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and HPV vaccine, compared to those when Tdap vaccine was given with HPV vaccine only. To evaluate the antibody responses to the antigens present in HPV vaccine after the 3-dose series, when the first dose of HPV vaccine is given concomitantly with MenACYW Conjugate vaccine and Tdap vaccine, compared to those when the first dose of HPV vaccine is given with Tdap vaccine only. Observational objective: To describe the safety profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine, compared to that of the licensed vaccine MENVEO®, and when MenACYW Conjugate vaccine was given with Tdap and HPV vaccines.

This study compares the safety and immunogenicity profile of several travel vaccines given alone or concomitantly with MenACWY-CRM to healthy adults.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the equivalence of rMenB+OMV NZ lot 1 to rMenB+OMV NZ lot 2 when administered to adolescents, as measured by human serum bactericidal activity (hSBA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) against 3 N. meningitidis serogroup B reference strains (H44/76, 5/99, and NZ98/254) and as measured by ELISA geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) against vaccine antigen 287-953, approximately 30 days after a primary vaccination course of two doses administered one month apart.
