Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Vaccine Response to Meningococcal Antigens for Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Rabbit Complement (rSBA)
One month post vaccination

Response to vaccine antigen was defined as: for initially seronegative subjects \[subjects with serum bactericidal assay using rabbit complement (rSBA) titer lower than (\<) 1:8, post-vaccination rSBA titer greater than or equal to (≥) 1:32\] and for initially seropositive (subjects with rSBA titer ≥ 1:8), at least 4-fold increase in rSBA titer from pre to post vaccination.

Occurrence of Any Grade 3 Systemic Symptoms
During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period

Local symptom, Grade 3 = pain that prevented normal activity and redness/ swelling spreading beyond (\>) 50 millimeters (mm). General symptom, Grade 3 = symptom that prevented normal activity and fever (orally) \>39.5 °C.

Secondary Endpoints

Number of Subjects With Serum Bactericidal Assay Using Rabbit Complement Against Neisseria Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W-135, Y (rSBA-MenA, rSBA-MenC, rSBA-MenW-135 and rSBA-MenY) Antibody Titers ≥ the Cut-off Value

Frequently asked questions about meningococcal ACWY

What is meningococcal ACWY used for?

Meningococcal ACWY is an investigational vaccine being studied for the prevention of meningococcal infections. It is being evaluated in adolescents and adults to assess its ability to generate an immune response against meningococcal serogroups A, C, W, and Y. The vaccine is currently in Phase 2 clinical development.

Who makes meningococcal ACWY?

Meningococcal ACWY is being developed by GSK plc, a global biopharma company listed on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker GSK. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the vaccine's safety and immunogenicity in the target population.

What phase is meningococcal ACWY in?

Meningococcal ACWY is in Phase 2 clinical development. A Phase 2 trial has been completed to evaluate the vaccine's non-inferiority and persistence of immune response up to 5 years. The vaccine is investigational and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials is meningococcal ACWY in?

Meningococcal ACWY has one completed Phase 2 clinical trial, NCT00356369, which enrolled 500 participants in the Philippines and Saudi Arabia. The study evaluated the vaccine in adolescents and adults aged 11 years and older, with an active-controlled design to assess non-inferiority and persistence of immune response.

Is meningococcal ACWY a monoclonal antibody?

No, meningococcal ACWY is classified as a vaccine, not a monoclonal antibody. It is designed to elicit an immune response against meningococcal bacteria. The vaccine is being studied for its ability to protect against infections caused by serogroups A, C, W, and Y.
