Brief summary

This study was designed to evaluate the antibody response to a Menactra® booster dose in participants who previously received one dose of Menactra® or Menomune® as adolescents 3 years earlier in Study MTA02. Primary Objective: To evaluate the antibody responses to a booster dose of a tetravalent meningococcal diphtheria toxoid conjugate vaccine (Menactra®) in participants who had previously received Menactra® or Menomune® as adolescents in the MTA02 Study and antibody responses to a dose of Menactra® in naive adolescents.

Detailed description

All subjects were given a single boosting dose of Menactra® to evaluate the kinetics of the response, the magnitude and the avidity of the antibody produced.

Inclusion criteria

: * Participant is healthy, as determined by medical history and physical examination. * Participant is at least 13 years of age but not yet 22 years of age at time of enrollment. * For the Menactra® and Menomune® groups, participant received one dose of Menactra® or Menomune® in MTA02 trial and completed trial (2 blood samples, contacted for Month 6 safety follow up). * For the Control group, participant has no previous history of any meningococcal vaccination. * If \< 18 years of age, participant has signed Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved informed assent form and his/her parent/legal guardian has signed an IRB-approved informed consent form. * If ≥ 18 years of age, participant has signed an IRB-approved informed consent form. * Able to provide vaccination log.

Exclusion criteria

: * Serious chronic disease (i.e., cardiac, renal, neurologic, metabolic, rheumatologic, psychiatric etc). * Known or suspected impairment of immunologic function. * Acute medical illness with or without fever within the last 72 hours or an oral temperature ≥ 100.4ºF (≥ 38.0ºC) at the time of inclusion. * For the Menactra® and Menomune® groups, history of documented invasive meningococcal disease or previous meningococcal vaccination with the exception of meningococcal vaccination given as part of MTA02 trial. * For the Control group, history of documented invasive meningococcal disease or previous meningococcal vaccination. * Administration of immune globulin, other blood products within the last three months, injected or oral corticosteroids or other immunomodulatory therapy within six weeks 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. * Antibiotic therapy within the 72 hours prior to vaccination or antibiotic therapy within the 72 hours prior to having any blood sample drawn. * Received any vaccine in the 14-day period prior to study vaccination, or scheduled to receive any vaccination during the 14-day period after study vaccination. * 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. * In females, a positive or equivocal urine pregnancy test at the time of vaccination. * Enrolled in another clinical trial. * Any condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose a health risk to the participant, or interfere with the evaluation of the vaccine.

Outcome results

Primary

Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Serum Bactericidal Activity for Each of the 4 Vaccine Serogroups.

Geometric mean titers and their 95% confidence interval of serum bactericidal activity for the 4 vaccine serogroups before vaccination, at 8 days post- and 28 days post-booster dose of Menactra vaccine or a primary dose of Menactra vaccine in the meningococcal vaccine-naïve Control group.

Time frame: Day 0 and 8 and 28 days post-vaccination

Population: GMT results were on the per-protocol population for immunogenicity.
