NCT01659996

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to further characterize the safety and immunogenicity of Menactra® in the population \<2 years of age when administered alone and when the second dose is administered concomitantly with the 4th dose of Pentacel®, a licensed pediatric vaccine. Primary Objectives:

  • To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 induced by 2 injections of Menactra® in subjects aged 9 months at the first vaccination visit and 15 to 18 months at the second vaccination visit.
  • To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to Pertussis (pertussis toxoid \[PT\], filamentous haemagglutinin \[FHA\] and pertactin \[PRN\]) antigens induced by a dose of Pentacel® when administered concomitantly with Menactra® to those elicited by a dose of Pentacel® administered alone.
  • To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to polyribosylribitol phosphate (PRP), tetanus and diphtheria antigens induced by a dose of Pentacel® when administered concomitantly with Menactra® to those elicited by a dose of Pentacel® alone. Observational Objectives:
  • To describe the safety profile (immediate unsolicited AEs within 30 minutes of each trial vaccination, solicited reactions within 7 days of each vaccination, unsolicited AEs within 30 days of each vaccination, and serious adverse events \[SAEs\] throughout the course of the trial from Day 0 up to Day 30 after the last trial vaccination\[s\]) in all trial groups
  • To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135, measured by SBA HC, 30 days after the second Menactra® administration
  • To describe the antibody responses to Pentacel® (PT, FHA, PRN, FIM, diphtheria, tetanus, polio, PRP) measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), radioimmunoassay (RIA), or functional assays.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Percentage of Study Participants Achieving Menactra Response for Meningococcal Serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 Following the Second Menactra Vaccination

    Titers of antibodies to serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 were measured by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA or SBA-HC). Menactra vaccine response defined as subjects with an hSBA titer \<1:8 at baseline achieving an hSBA titer ≥1:8, and subjects with an hSBA titer ≥1:8 at baseline achieving a ≥ 4-fold increase in hSBA titer.

    Day 30 post second Menactra vaccination

  • Geometric Mean Concentrations of Pertussis Vaccine Antibodies Following Vaccination With Either Pentacel Only or Menactra Concomitantly With Pentacel Vaccine

    Pertussis antibodies, anti-Pertussis toxoid (PT), Filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), Pertactin (PRN) antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Day 30 post-vaccination 2

  • Percentage of Participants With Pertussis Vaccine Responses Following Vaccination With Either Pentacel Only or Menactra Concomitantly With Pentacel Vaccine

    Pertussis antibodies, anti-Pertussis toxoid (PT), Filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), and Pertactin (PRN) antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Pertussis response was defined as: ≥4 × baseline concentration, if the anti-pertussis antibody concentration at baseline is \<4 × lower limit of quantification (LLOQ), Or ≥2 × baseline concentration, if the anti-pertussis antibody concentration at baseline is ≥4 × LLOQ

    Day 30 post-vaccination 2

  • Percentage of Participants With Antibody Responses to Diphtheria, Tetanus and Polyribosylribitol Phosphate Antigens Following Vaccination With Either Pentacel Only or Menactra Concomitantly With Pentacel Vaccine

    Anti-Tetanus antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), anti-polyribosylribitol phosphate (PRP) antibodies were measured using a Farr-type radioimmunoassay, and anti-diphtheria antibodies were measured by a toxin neutralization test. The vaccine responses were defined as: Anti-PRP antibody concentrations ≥1.0 μg/mL; Anti-tetanus antibody concentrations ≥1.0 IU/mL and Anti-diphtheria antibody concentrations ≥1.0 IU/mL, respectively, 30 days after vaccination with Pentacel® in participants in Groups 2 and 3.

    Day 30 post-vaccination 2

Other Outcomes (5)

  • Geometric Mean Titers of Individual Meningococcal Antibodies in Serum Bactericidal Assay With Human Complement (SBA-HC) Analysis Following Vaccination With Menactra Vaccine

    Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 30 post-vaccination 2

  • Geometric Mean Titers of Individual Antibodies to Filamentous Hemagglutinin, Pertactin, Diphtheria, Tetanus and Polio Antigens Following Vaccination With Either Pentacel Only or Menactra Concomitantly With Pentacel Vaccine

    Day 0 (pre-vaccination) and Day 30 post-vaccination 2

  • Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Injection-site or Systemic Reactions Following Vaccination With Menactra Only, or Pentacel Only or Menactra Concomitantly With Pentacel Vaccine

    Day 0 to Day 7 after any vaccination
