Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study was to compare the immunogenicity and describe the safety of MenACYW conjugate vaccine and MENVEO® when both are administered concomitantly with routine pediatric vaccines to healthy infants and toddlers in the US.
Detailed description
The duration of each subject's participation in the trial was approximately 16 to 19 months (Subgroup 1a) and 19 to 22 months (Subgroup 1b and Group 2), which included a safety follow up contact at 6 months after the last vaccinations.

Primary outcome
Groups 1a and 2a: Percentage of Participants With Vaccine Seroresponse Measured by Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) at Day 30 Post 12-Month Vaccination
Time frame: Day 30 post 12-month vaccination (Month 13)
Functional meningococcal antibody activity against serogroups A, C, Y, and W were measured in a serum bactericidal assay utilizing the hSBA. Vaccine seroresponse was defined as a post 4th dose (Day 30 after 12-month) hSBA titer >=1:16 for participants with pre 1st dose (Day 0 before 2-month) hSBA titer less than (<) 1:8, or at least a 4-fold increase in hSBA titer from pre-vaccination to post-vaccination for participants with pre-vaccination hSBA titer >=1:8. Percentages are rounded off to the tenth decimal place.
Groups 1 and 2: Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Antibody Titers >=1:8 by hSBA at Day 30 Post 6-Month Vaccination
Time frame: Day 30 post 6-month vaccination (Month 7)

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 25 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 15 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 70 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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 15 Oct 2024). 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?
Groups 1a and 2a: Percentage of Participants With Vaccine Seroresponse Measured by Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) at Day 30 Post 12-Month Vaccination (time frame: Day 30 post 12-month vaccination (Month 13)). The study lists 2 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 NCT03537508, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 15 Oct 2024.
