Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of Nimenrix (Registered) in Healthy Infants, Given at 3 and 12 Months of Age

Local reactions included pain at injection site, redness and swelling and were recorded by the participant's parents/legal guardians in an electronic diary (e-diary). Redness and swelling were measured and recorded in measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit =0.5 centimeter (cm) and graded as mild: greater than (>) 0.0 to 2.0 cm; moderate: >2.0 to 7.0 cm; and severe: >7.0 cm. Pain at injection site was graded as mild: hurts if gently touched; moderate: hurts if gently touched with crying; severe: limited limb movement. Exact 2-sided confidence interval (CI) was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

Systemic events included fever, decreased appetite, increased sleep and irritability and were recorded by the participant's parents/legal guardians in an e-diary. Fever was defined as temperature greater than or equal to (>=) 38.0 degrees (deg) Celsius (C), categorized as >=38.0 to 38.4 deg C, >38.4 to 38.9 deg C,>38.9 to 40.0 deg C and >40.0 deg C; decreased appetite graded as mild: decreased interest in eating, moderate: decreased oral intake and severe: refusal to feed; increased sleep graded as mild: increased or prolonged sleeping bouts, moderate: slightly subdued, interfered with daily activity and severe: disabling, not interested in usual daily activity; irritability graded as mild: easily consolable, moderate: required increased attention and severe: inconsolable, crying could not be comforted. Exact 2-sided CI was based on Clopper and Pearson method.

The use of antipyretic medication was recorded by the participant's parents/legal guardians in an e-diary for 7 days after vaccination. Exact 2-sided CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of investigational product, whether or not considered related to the investigational product. Exact 2-sided CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method. Only AEs collected by non-systematic assessment (i.e., excluding local reactions and systemic events) were reported in this outcome measure.

An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose: resulted in death; required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; was life-threatening; resulted in persistent disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect and other important medical events. Exact 2-sided CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

An NDCMC was defined as a significant disease or medical condition, not previously identified, that was expected to be persistent or was otherwise long-lasting in its effects. Exact 2-sided CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

Immediate AEs were defined as AEs occurring within the first 30 minutes after administration of the investigational product. Exact 2-sided CI was based on the Clopper and Pearson method.

GMT was derived by calculating the mean on the natural log scale based on the t-distribution, then exponentiating the results. CIs were obtained by exponentiating the limits of CIs for the mean logarithm of the rSBA titers (based on the Student t distribution).
