A Study of a Quadrivalent Meningococcal Tetanus Protein Conjugate Vaccine in Infants and Toddlers
A Study of a Quadrivalent Meningococcal Tetanus Protein Conjugate Vaccine in Infants and Toddlers

NCT01049035

CompletedPhase 2

Sponsor: Sanofi Pasteur, a Sanofi Company

Conditions: Meningitis, Meningococcal Infection

Interventions: Quadrivalent Meningococcal Polysaccharide (A, C, Y, and W-135) Tetanus Protein Conjugate, Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Adsorbed, Inactivated Poliovirus and Haemophilus B Conjugate (Tetanus Toxoid Conjugate) Vaccine Combined (DTaP-IPV/Hib combined), M-M-RII-Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Virus Vaccine Live, Varicella Virus Vaccine Live, Pneumococcal 7-valent Conjugate Vaccine (Diphtheria CRM197 Protein)

Countries: United States

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the optimal vaccination schedule for a Quadrivalent Meningococcal Polysaccharide (A, C, Y and W-135) Tetanus Protein Conjugate Vaccine (MenACYW Conjugate vaccine) in order to provide an effective protein conjugate quadrivalent meningococcal vaccine in the population with the highest incidence of disease. Objectives: * To describe the safety profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine administered at 5 different schedules and concomitantly with routine pediatric vaccinations. * To describe the immunogenicity profile of MenACYW Conjugate vaccine administered at 5 different schedules and concomitantly with routine pediatric vaccinations. * To describe the immunogenicity profiles of selected licensed pediatric vaccines (Pentacel, Prevnar, M-M-RII, and Varivax) when administered either concomitantly with or without MenACYW Conjugate vaccine.

* Born at full term of pregnancy (greater than or equal to \[≥\] 37 weeks) and with a birth weight ≥2.5 kilogram (kg).
* Informed consent form had been signed and dated by the parent or other legally acceptable representative.
* Participant and parent/guardian were able to attend all scheduled visits and to be complied with all trial procedures.
* Group 4 only: Prior receipt of Pentacel and Prevnar at 2 and 4 months; 1 or 2 doses of rotavirus vaccine; and 2 or 3 previous doses of hepatitis B vaccine.

Group 5 only: Prior receipt of Pentacel and Prevnar at 2, 4, and 6 months; 2 or 3 doses of rotavirus vaccine; and 3 previous doses of hepatitis B vaccine.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Participation in another clinical trial investigating a vaccine, drug, medical device, or medical procedure in the 4 weeks preceding the first trial vaccination.
* Planned participation in another clinical trial during the present trial period.
* Receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding the first trial vaccination.
* Planned receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks following any trial vaccination, with the exception of influenza vaccine, which may be received 14 days before or after MenACYW Conjugate vaccine.
* Previous vaccination against meningococcal disease with either the trial vaccine or another vaccine.
* Receipt of blood or blood-derived products in the past 30 days, which might interfere with assessment of the immune response.
* Known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency; or receipt of immunosuppressive therapy such as anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy; or long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy (prednisone or equivalent for more than 2 consecutive weeks).
* Known personal or maternal seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B vaccine, or hepatitis C, as reported by the parent/guardian.
* History of meningococcal infection, confirmed either clinically, serologically, or microbiologically.
* At high risk for meningococcal infection during the trial.
* Known systemic hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components, or history of a life-threatening reaction to the vaccines used in the trial or to a vaccine containing any of the same substances.
* Thrombocytopenia, as reported by the parent/guardian.
* Bleeding disorder, or receipt of anticoagulants in the 3 weeks preceding inclusion, contraindicating intramuscular vaccination.
* History of seizures.
* Personal or family history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS).
* Chronic illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, was at a stage where it might interfere with trial conduct or completion.

Temporary contraindications were resolved before vaccination:

* Febrile illness (temperature ≥38.0 degree Celsius \[≥100.4 degree Fahrenheit\]) or moderate or severe acute illness/infection (according to investigator judgment) on the day of vaccination.
* Group 5 only: Receipt of oral or injected antibiotic therapy within the 72 hours prior to the study blood draw. Topical antibiotics or antibiotic drops were not included in this exclusion criterion. (Note: This did not applied to the other groups at this time, as they did not have a blood draw within 30 days of the initial visit.).
