About this study

Official title: Duration of Protection Based on Persistent Antibody Titers 12-24 Months After Vaccination: Follow Up to Phase 2 Study of Meningococcal Serogroups A, C, Y & W-135 Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine (NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT)

To determine the persistence of protective antibody levels for subjects who seroconverted after vaccination with NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT™

Participants in trial # JN-NM-002, who seroconverted for serogroups A and C will be contacted and asked to provide a blood sample at 12-24 months after vaccination with NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT.

Serum Bactericidal Assays will be performed to evaluated duration of protective antibody titer for NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT for all four serogroups. To determine if subjects who seroconverted with lower titers retain protective levels of antibody (titer ≥:8) at 12-24 months after vaccination.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to collect serum samples to evaluate duration of protection for NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT, based on titers determined by Serum Bactericidal Assay with human complement (hSBA). This assay is used to evaluate immunogenicity of meningococcal vaccines, as a surrogate for efficacy. A titer ≥ 1:8 is considered protective.

Objectives are to evaluate duration of protective antibody titer for NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT for all four serogroups, and determine if subjects with lower titers, but ≥:8 retain protective levels of antibody at 12-24 months.

Participants in trial # JN-NM-002, who seroconverted for serogroups A and C will be contacted and asked to provide a blood sample at 12-24 months after vaccination with NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT™.

Serum Bactericidal Assays will be performed to evaluated persistence of protective antibody titer for NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT for all four serogroups, to determine if subjects who seroconverted with lower titers retain protective levels of antibody (titer ≥:8) at 12-24 months after vaccination.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Meningococcal Meningitis and Meningococcal Infections, run by JN-International Medical Corporation at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 12 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Antibody titer (time frame: 12-24 months after vaccination in study JN-NM-002). 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 12 Apr 2016.
