Frequently asked questions about Meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine

What is the meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine used for?

It is used to protect against Neisseria meningitidis, the bacterium that causes meningococcal disease. The vaccine targets group C meningococcal infection and is given to infants and other at-risk groups. It is a conjugate vaccine, meaning the polysaccharide is linked to a carrier protein to improve the immune response.

Who makes the meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine?

Pfizer, Inc. is the developer of this meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine. Pfizer trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker PFE. The company conducted the clinical development program for the vaccine, including a Phase 3 study in infants.

What phase is the meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine in?

The meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine has completed a Phase 3 clinical trial. It is an investigational vaccine that has been studied in late-stage clinical development. The Phase 3 trial, NCT01218451, has been completed, and no active trials are currently listed for this asset.

What clinical trials is the meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine in?

The vaccine was evaluated in a single Phase 3 trial, NCT01218451, titled NeisVac-C Single Prime Study in Infants. The trial enrolled 956 healthy infants aged 8 weeks and older in Poland and Spain. It was randomized and active-controlled, and the study has been completed.

How does the meningococcal group C polysaccharide conjugate vaccine work?

The vaccine is a conjugate vaccine that presents Neisseria meningitidis group C polysaccharide linked to a carrier protein. This design helps generate a stronger and more durable immune response against group C meningococcal bacteria, particularly in infants, compared with plain polysaccharide vaccines.
