Brief summary
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether or not GSK Biologicals' meningococcal vaccine GSK134612 is inferior to a licensed MenC-CRM197 conjugate vaccine in terms of vaccine antibody response against meningococcal serogroup C disease.
Detailed description
The study has 2 study groups. One group will receive one dose of GSK Biologicals' vaccine GSK 134612 and the other group will receive one dose of licensed MenC-CRM197 vaccine. All subjects will have 2 blood samples taken: just before vaccination and one month after vaccination.
