Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Percentages of Subjects With Carriage of Virulent Sequence Types (ST) of Neisseria Meningitidis Group B, One Month After Completion of rMenB+OMV NZ Vaccination
61 days (31 days after receiving the second injection)

Percentages of subjects with carriage of virulent sequence types (ST) of Neisseria meningitidis group B, one month after completion of rMenB+OMV NZ vaccination. The carriage rate of virulent sequence types (ST) of N. meningitidis group B (genogroupable) in subjects, one month after receiving two doses of rMenB+OMV NZ, as compared to the control group, was reported. Virulent ST types are defined as Clonal Complex multi locus sequence typing (MLST) or ST type being the same compared to history data (Clonal Complexes MLST or ST types found to be virulent and causing diseases) from the years 2006 to 2010.

Percentages of Subjects With Combined Carriage of N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y, One Month After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination
31 days after MenACWY-CRM injection

The percentage of subjects with combined carriage rate of N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y in subjects, one month after receiving a single dose of MenACWY-CRM conjugate vaccine as compared to the control group is reported.

Secondary Endpoints

Percentages of Subjects With Carriage of All ST Types of N. Meningitidis B (Genogroupable) at Different Time Points Following rMenB+OMV NZ Vaccination
Up to 361 days after vaccination
Percentages of Subjects With Carriage of Virulent ST Types of N. Meningitidis Group B at Any Time Point After rMenB+OMV NZ Vaccination
Up to 361 days after vaccination
Percentages of Subjects With Carriage of Nonvirulent ST Types of N. Meningitidis Group B at Any Time Point After rMenB+OMV NZ Vaccination
Up to 361 days after vaccination

Frequently asked questions about Meningococcal B Recombinant+ Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine

What is the Meningococcal B Recombinant + Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine?

It is an investigational vaccine developed by Novartis AG (ticker NVS) that targets Neisseria meningitidis carriage. The vaccine combines recombinant meningococcal B proteins with outer membrane vesicles. It is in Phase 3 development and has been studied in healthy adult volunteers in the United Kingdom.

What is the Meningococcal B Recombinant + Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine used for?

It is being developed to prevent or reduce Neisseria meningitidis carriage, the condition studied in its clinical program. Carriage refers to the presence of the bacteria in the nose and throat, which is how meningococcal infection spreads between people. The vaccine is investigational and has not been approved for use.

Who makes the Meningococcal B Recombinant + Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine?

Novartis AG, which trades under the ticker NVS, is the developer of the Meningococcal B Recombinant + Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine. The company sponsored the Phase 3 carriage trial conducted in the United Kingdom.

What phase is the Meningococcal B Recombinant + Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine in?

The vaccine is in Phase 3 development. Its only listed trial, NCT01214850, is a completed Phase 3 study, and no active trials are currently recorded. It is an investigational vaccine and is not described as approved.

What clinical trials is the Meningococcal B Recombinant + Outer Membrane Vesicle vaccine in?

The vaccine has been evaluated in one completed Phase 3 trial, NCT01214850, titled the Novartis Vaccine and Diagnostics Carriage Trial. It enrolled 2,968 healthy adult volunteers of all sexes in the United Kingdom, was randomized, and used an active control. The study examined Neisseria meningitidis carriage.
