What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Anti-Meningitis Antibody Titers by Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Rabbit Complement (rSBA)

    The analysis was performed for the serogroups -MenA, -MenC -MenW-135 and -MenY. Antibody titers, tabulated as geometric mean titers (GMTs), were obtained by serum bactericidal assay using rabbit complement. This analysis was only performed on groups receiving Nimenrix vaccine.

    Measured: At one month after vaccination with Nimenrix (Month 1)

  2. Anti-HPV-16 and Anti-HPV-18 Concentrations

    The antibody concentrations were calculated as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) and expressed as Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) units per milliliter (EU/mL).

    Measured: At one month after vaccination with Cervarix (Month 7)

  3. Number of Subjects With Anti-diphteria (Anti-D) and Anti-tetanus (Anti-T) Concentrations Equal to or Above (≥) 1.0 IU/mL

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = significant pain at rest, prevented normal every day activities. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 50 millimeters (mm) of injection site. Symptoms were presented by vaccination site. Some groups do not have results for "Dose 2" because solicited local symptoms were not collected for these subjects at the Dose 2 timepoint.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

  13. Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited General Symptoms

Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination. Some groups do not have results for "Dose 2" because solicited local symptoms were not collected for these subjects at the Dose 2 timepoint.

    Measured: During the 7-day (Days 0-6) post-vaccination period following each dose and across doses

  14. Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events AE(s)

    An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Grade 3 AE = an AE which prevented normal, everyday activities. Related = AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Measured: During the 31-day (Days 0-30) period following vaccination with Nimenrix, Boostrix or the first dose of Cervarix

  16. Number of Subjects With Potential Immune-mediated Diseases (pIMDs)

    pIMDs are a subset of AEs that include autoimmune diseases and other inflammatory and/or neurologic disorders of interest which may or may not have an autoimmune aetiology.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Meningococcal vaccine GSK134612, Cervarix® and Boostrix® in people with Infections, Meningococcal, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 3 sites in 3 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 10 inclusion and 30 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 3 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Dominican Republic, Estonia, Thailand. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 3 Jul 2018). 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?

Anti-Meningitis Antibody Titers by Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Rabbit Complement (rSBA) (time frame: At one month after vaccination with Nimenrix (Month 1)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01755689, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 3 Jul 2018.
