A Clinical Trial to Study the Safety, Tolerance and Immunogenic Response to MCV4, Tdap and Bivalent rLP2086 Vaccine When Given at the Same Time to Children Between the Ages of 10 Through 12 Years of Age

This is a clinical study to assess the safety, tolerance and immunogenic response to MCV4(quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide conjugate, meningococcal serogroups A,C,Y, and W135), Tdap (diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis), and bivalent rLP2086 vaccine. Healthy male and female subjects, between the ages of 10 to 12 years old, will be randomized into 1 of 3 groups. The subjects, investigators, site staff and sponsor will be blinded to all injections given throughout the study. An unblinded administrator will be responsible to administer the vaccinations to all subjects and will be unblinded to the subject randomization in order to determine which subjects were in randomized to group 3 so they may receive their catch-up vaccinations of MCV4 and Tdap. A final telephone contact will be conducted with all subjects 6-months post their last vaccination to obtain safety information.

Treatment and study plan

rLP2086 + MCV4 + Tdap

Biological

At visit 1, group 1 will receive MCV4 + Tdap vaccines concomitantly with an injection of rLP2086. At visits 3 and 5 (Months 2 and 6), group 1 will receive an injection of rLP2086.

MCV4 + Tdap + saline

Biological

At visit 1, group 2 will receive MCV4 + Tdap vaccines concomitantly with an injection of saline. At visits 3 and 5 (months 2 and 6), this group will receive a saline injection only.

rLP2086 + saline

Biological

At visit 1, group 3 will receive 2 injections of saline concomitantly with an injection of rLP2086. At visits 3 and 5 (Months 2 and 6), group 3 will receive an injection of rLP2086. Subjects randomized to this group will receive MCV4 and Tdap following their final visit blood draw (Visit 6).

Primary outcomes

  1. Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMC) for Diphtheria and Tetanus Antigens

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination 1

    Antibody GMCs of 2 antigens of diphtheria and tetanus toxoid were computed in International Units per milliliter (IU/mL) along with corresponding 2-sided 95 percent (%) confidence intervals (CIs). Here, 'number of participants analyzed' signifies participants with valid and determinate assay results for given antigen.

  2. Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMC) for Acellular Pertussis Antigens

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination 1

    Antibody GMCs of 4 acellular pertussis antigens (pertussis toxoid, pertussis filamentous hemagglutinin, pertussis pertactin and pertussis fimbrial agglutinogens types 2+3) were computed in Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units per milliliter (EU/mL) along with corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs.

  3. Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) for Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine (MCV4) Antigens

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination 1

    Antibody GMTs of 4 MCV4 antigens (serogroup A, serogroup C, serogroup Y and serogroup W-135) were computed along with corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs.

  4. Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) GMTs of PMB80 [A22] and PMB2948 [B24] 1 Month After Vaccination 3

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination 3

    Antibody hSBA GMTs of primary strain PMB80 [A22] and PMB2948 [B24] were computed along with corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs. hSBA titers from the 2 primary strains were logarithmically transformed for analysis. Here, 'number of participants analyzed' signifies evaluable immunogenicity population and 'N' signifies participants with valid and determinate assay results for given strain for each group, respectively.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Seroresponse for Tetanus, Diphtheria and Acellular Pertussis (Tdap) and Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccine (MCV4) Antigens

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination 1

    Seroconversion rate for Tdap antigens was defined as greater than or equal to (>=) 4-, 2-fold rise in antibody concentration, if prevaccination antibody concentration was less than or equal to (<=), greater than (>) cutoff value, respectively. For MCV4 antigens >=4-fold rise on serum bactericidal assay using rabbit complement (rSBA) titers if baseline value >= lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ), postdose rSBA titers >=2×LLOQ if baseline value was less than (<) LLOQ. Cutoff value =0.1 IU/mL for diphtheria and tetanus, 0.9,2.9,3.0,10.6 EU/mL for pertussis toxoid, filamentous hemagglutinin, pertactin, fimbriae agglutinogens types 2 + 3, respectively.

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving Predefined Antibody Level for Diphtheria and Tetanus Antigens

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination 1

  3. Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) GMTs of PMB80 [A22] and PMB2948 [B24] Before Vaccination 1 and 1 Month After Vaccination 2

    Time frame: Before Vaccination 1, 1 Month after Vaccination (Vac) 2

    Antibody hSBA of primary strain PMB80 [A22] and PMB2948 [B24] were computed along with corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs. hSBA titers from the 2 primary strains were logarithmically transformed for analysis.

  4. Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) Titer >= Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ)

    Time frame: Before Vaccination 1, 1 Month after Vaccination (Vac) 2, 3

    Percentage of participants achieving hSBA titer >= LLOQ were computed along with corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs. LLOQ was 1:16 for PMB80 [A22] and 1:8 for PMB2948 [B24].

  5. Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) Titer >= Prespecified Titer Level

    Time frame: Before Vaccination 1, 1 Month after Vaccination 1

    IgG GMCs of 4 MCV4 antigens (serogroup A, serogroup C, serogroup Y and serogroup W-135) of participants were computed along with corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs. CIs were back transformations of confidence levels based on Student t distribution for mean logarithm of titers.

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving at Least 4-Fold Increase in Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Human Complement (hSBA) Titer Level

    Time frame: 1 Month after Vaccination (Vac) 2, 3

  3. Percentage of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event (AE)

    Time frame: Vaccination phase (baseline up to 1 month after Vaccination 3); Follow-up phase (from 1 month up to 6 months after Vaccination 3)

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received investigational product without regard to possibility of causal relationship.
