Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (19)

  • Percentage of Blood Samples Without Bactericidal Serum Activity Against Each of the Endemic US N. Meningitidis Serogroup B Strains at 1 Month After the 3-dose (0,2,6-M), 2-dose(0,6-M) Vaccination Schedule of rMenB+OMV and 1 Dose of MenACWY

    The effectiveness (test-based) of rMenB+OMV vaccine at 1 month after the 3 doses in MenB\_0\_2\_6 group and 1 month after the 2 dose schedule in MenB\_0\_6 group when compared to one dose of MenACWY vaccination in ACWY group, against a panel of N. meningitidis serogroup B strains was measured in terms of percentage of samples without bactericidal activity using endogenous complement human Serum Bactericidal Assay (enc-hSBA), which provides a qualitative assessment (yes/no) of the presence of sufficient bactericidal antibodies in human sera to kill a meningococcal strain at a specific dilution of 1:4. Participants were randomly selected for testing against each strain therefore only a subset of participants were tested for each of the strains.

    At 1 month after vaccination schedule (i.e., Day 211 for MenB_0_2_6 group [3-dose schedule] and MenB_0_6 group, and Day 31 for ACWY group)

  • Percentage of Blood Samples Without Bactericidal Serum Activity Against Each of the Endemic US N. Meningitidis Serogroup B Strains at 1 Month After the 2-dose (0,2-M) Vaccination Schedule of rMenB+OMV and 1 Dose of MenACWY

    The effectiveness (test-based) of rMenB+OMV vaccine at 1 month after the 2 doses in MenB\_0\_2\_6 group when compared to one dose of MenACWY vaccination in ACWY group, against a panel of N. meningitidis serogroup B strains was measured in terms of percentage of samples without bactericidal activity using endogenous complement human Serum Bactericidal Assay (enc-hSBA), which provides a qualitative assessment (yes/no) of the presence of sufficient bactericidal antibodies in human sera to kill a meningococcal strain at a specific dilution of 1:4. Participants were randomly selected for testing against each strain therefore only a subset of participants were tested for each of the strains.

    At 1 month after vaccination schedule (i.e., Day 91 for the MenB_0_2_6 group [2-dose schedule] and Day 31 for ACWY group)

  • Percentage of Participants Whose Sera Kill Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 70% of the Strains Tested Using Enc-hSBA at 1 Month After the 3-dose (0,2,6-M) Schedule of rMenB+OMV and 2-dose(0,6-M) Schedule of rMenB+OMV

    The effectiveness (responder-based) of the rMenB+OMV NZ vaccine was measured in terms of percentage of participants whose sera kill \>=70% of the strains tested using enc-hSBA, calculated based on Clopper Pearson method. Effectiveness is demonstrated if Lower Limit (LL) of the two-sided 97.5% CI for the percentages of participants whose sera kill ≥70% of strains is above 65%.

As pre-specified in the protocol, the data reported in this outcome measures data were presented for individual lots to demonstrate the consistency of the immune response of 3 lots (ABCWY- 1 Group, ABCWY-2 Group, and ABCWY-3 Group) of the ACWY component of the MenABCWY vaccine.

If the pre-vaccination hSBA titer is \>= limit of detection (LOD) but \< LL of quantification (LLOQ), then post-vaccination hSBA titer should be \>= 4 times the LLOQ. If the pre-vaccination hSBA titer is \>= LLOQ, then post-vaccination hSBA titer should be \>= 4 times the pre-vaccination hSBA titer.
