Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Activity >=8 at 5 Years After Primary Vaccination
Day 1 (5 years after primary vaccination)

Persistence of antibody response was measured by the percentage of subjects who showed a serum bactericidal activity with human complement(hSBA) \>= 8 \[i.e. percentage of subjects with hsBA titer \>=8\] in previously vaccinated subjects and in age-matched meningococcal vaccine naive subjects. Sera was tested against Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A, C, W-135 and Y

Geometric Mean Titer After Booster Vaccination
Day 8, Day 29 (5 years after primary vaccination)

Immunogenicity was measured by serum bactericidal assay with human complement (hSBA) and reported as hSBA Geometric mean titer (GMT) in previously vaccinated subjects and in age-matched meningococcal vaccine-naive subjects. Sera was tested against Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A, C, W-135 and Y

Secondary Endpoints

Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Activity >=4 at 5 Years After Primary Vaccination
Day 1 (5 years after primary vaccination )
Geometric Mean Titer at 5 Years After Primary Vaccination
Day 1 (5 years after primary vaccination )
Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Activity >=4 After Booster Vaccination
Day 7, Day 28 post booster (5 years after primary vaccination)

I: MenACWY-CRM vaccineEXPERIMENTALSubjects had been given one dose of Meningococcal ACWY (MenACWY) vaccine conjugated to CRM197 (cross-reactive material-mutant of diptheria toxin) 5 years ago. All subjects were given one dose of the Men ACWY in the present study.
II: Licensed Polysaccharide Meningococcal vaccineEXPERIMENTALSubjects had been given one dose of a licensed MenACWY polysaccharide meningococcal vaccine (Menomune) 5 years ago. All subjects were given one dose of Men ACWY vaccine in the present study.
III: Meningococcal NaiveEXPERIMENTALSubjects were age matched with groups 1 and 2 (age inclusive: 16 years to 23 years) and enrolled at visit 1 and given one dose of Men ACWY vaccine during the present study.
