Brief Summary:

This study was designed to simulate meningococcal challenge by vaccination with a fractional combined dose of unconjugated meningococcal polysaccharides A, C, Y, and W-135, Menomune® in children who were vaccinated with one dose of TetraMenD at least 18 months earlier.

Primary Objective:

To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to a reduced dose of Menomune® in participants who had previously received a tetravalent meningococcal diphtheria toxoid conjugate vaccine to those responses in participants who received the same reduced dose of Menomune® but had not previously received any meningococcal vaccine.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Meningitis Meningococcemia Neisseria Meningitidis Biological: A/C/Y/W-135, Meningococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (Menomune®) Phase 2

Detailed Description:
This was a two stage, controlled, open-label trial. Stage I of the trial simulated meningococcal challenge Stage II of the trial evaluated the meningococcal vaccine naïve participants from Stage I, who had also received a reduced dose of Menomune® vaccine in Stage I and were administered a full dose of Menactra® vaccine 6 months later.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria :

  • Stage I
  • Participant is healthy, as determined by medical history and physical examination.
  • Participant is at least 3 years of age but not yet 6 years of age at the enrolment.

  • For the Control group: no previous history of any meningococcal vaccination
  • Parent/Guardian has signed Institutional Review Board- (IRB-) approved informed consent form.
  • Stage II
  • Participant is healthy, as determined by medical history and physical examination.
  • Participant is at least 3 years of age but not yet 6 years of age at the time of enrollment in Stage 1.
  • Enrolled in the Control group only and received one dose of the reduced dose Menomune at Stage 1.
  • Parent/Guardian has signed Institutional Review Board- (IRB-) approved informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria :
