Brief summary

The study is designed to evaluate the persistence of bactericidal antibodies in subjects aged 7 to 15 years (not yet 16 years) who had been vaccinated five years previously in Study 603-02. In addition, the kinetics of the antibody response will be evaluated in a subset of participants who will receive a booster dose of Menactra® vaccine and children in the same age group not previously vaccinated with a meningococcal vaccine or had meningitis disease who will receive a dose of Menactra® vaccine.

Inclusion criteria

* Subject is healthy, as determined by medical history. * Subject is between the ages of 7 and 15 years (not yet 16 years). * For subjects who participated in Study 603-02, subject previously received one dose of Menactra® vaccine or Menomune®-A/C/Y/W-135 vaccine. * The date of vaccination during Study 603-02 will have occurred 5 years ± 6 months before the collection of the blood sample obtained for Study MTA23. * A negative urine pregnancy test is required for menstruating female subjects. * Parent/legal guardian has signed an Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved informed consent form and subject has signed an IRB-approved assent form.

Exclusion criteria

* Subjects who participated in sanofi pasteur Study MTA17 Stage I (a subset of subjects from Study 603-02 who had been recruited for the follow-up challenge study) * History of documented invasive meningococcal disease * Received any other meningococcal vaccine * Received any vaccine in the 28-day period prior to enrollment * Received antibiotic therapy within the 72 hours prior to collection of a blood sample * Actively enrolled or scheduled to be enrolled in another clinical study * Serious chronic disease (i.e., cardiac, renal, neurologic, rheumatologic, metabolic, gastrointestinal, psychiatric, or other organ system) * Known or suspected impairment of immunologic function * Acute medical illness with or without fever within 72 hours or an oral temperature ≥ 100.4°F (≥ 38.0°C) at the time of inclusion * Scheduled to receive any vaccination in the 7-day or 14-day period after enrollment * Administration of immune globulin, other blood products, or corticosteroid within 8 weeks (56 days) of the study vaccine. Individuals on a tapering dose schedule of oral steroids lasting \< 7 days may be included in the trial as long as they have not received more than one course within the last two weeks prior to enrollment. * Personal of family history of Guillain-Barres Syndrome * Suspected or known hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components * Unavailable for the entire study period or unable to attend the scheduled visits or to comply with the study procedures * Any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose a health risk to the participant.

Outcome results

Primary

Percentage of Participants With Serum Bactericidal Activity of ≥ 1:8 for the Menactra® Meningococcal Serogroups Pre-vaccination, and at 7 Days or 14 Days Post-booster or Post-primary Dose Vaccination.

Groups 1 and 2 received booster vaccination; Groups 3 and 4 received primary vaccination. Serum bactericidal activity for the Menactra® meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 were at pre-vaccination for all Groups, and at 7 days (Groups 1 and 3), and 14 days (Groups 2 and 4) post-vaccination.

Time frame: 7 or 14 days post-vaccination

Population: Serum bactericidal assay performed using baby rabbit complement (SBA-BR) titers for each of the 4 meningococcal serogroups in the vaccine was evaluated in the per-protocol population.
