| Primary end point(s): Percentage of participants with rSBA titres >1:8 (correlate of protection).;Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to calculate the percentage of 11 to 13 year old children whose meningococcal serogroup C (MenC) specific serum bactericidal assay using baby rabbit complement (rSBA) antibody titres are above the correlate of protection, from a cohort of children who received a single dose of a MenC conjugate vaccine at age 1-3 years;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of this study are to demonstrate sequential changes in MenC rSBA geometric mean titres (GMTs) from 1 to 10 years after receiving a dose of MenC vaccine in children who received a single dose of a MenC conjugate vaccine at age 1-3 years, and the percentage of children at each time point with MenC rSBA titres above the correlate of protection. An optional part of this study will also aim to extract DNA from the cellular plug remaining after serum centrifugation to contribute to a DNA bank to be used for genome wide analysis of the genetic factors influencing host response to the vaccines. | — |
