About this study

Official title: Evaluate the Immunogenicity, Reactogenicity, Safety of 4 Different Formulations of GSK Biologicals' Conjugate Vaccine (MenACWY) vs 1 Dose of MenC-CRM197 or Mencevax™ ACWY in Children Aged 12-14 Months & 3-5 Years

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of one dose of four different formulations of the MenACWY conjugate vaccine when given to healthy children aged 12-14 months and 3-5 years. The selection of the best formulation will be based on data obtained up to one month after the vaccine dose.

The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.

Read the detailed description

The study will enrol subjects of 12 to 14 months of age and subjects of 3 to 5 years of age. 3 formulations of GSK's MenACWY conjugate vaccine will be administered in a double-blind manner, while the 4th one will be single-blinded. Administration of the candidate vaccine or the active controls (MenC-CRM197 or Mencevax™ ACWY) will be done in an open manner. The study will be conducted in two stages: The primary vaccination phase (Study Stage 1) of the study will include all subjects; the second (booster/persistence) phase of the study (Study Stage 2) will include subjects in the active control groups and in the group which was primed with the selected MenACWY formulation.

The study will be conducted in a double-blind manner for groups receiving formulations A, B, C and in single blind manner with respect to the group receiving formulation D. The control vaccines will be administered in an open manner with respect to the investigational vaccination regimens.

Each group will have one blood sample prior to and one blood sample one month after the first vaccine dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Conjugated meningococcal ACWY-TT (vaccine), DTPa-IPV/Hib vaccine (Infanrix™-IPV/Hib) and DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (Infanrix hexa™) in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 17 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Greece, Austria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Mar 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Subjects With an Immune Response to Different Meningococcal Serogroups (time frame: One month after the first vaccine dose (Month 1)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2018.
