Brief summary

The aim of the study is to further characterize the safety and immunogenicity of Menactra® in the population \<2 years of age when administered alone and when the second dose is administered concomitantly with the 4th dose of Pentacel®, a licensed pediatric vaccine. Primary Objectives: * To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135 induced by 2 injections of Menactra® in subjects aged 9 months at the first vaccination visit and 15 to 18 months at the second vaccination visit. * To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to Pertussis (pertussis toxoid \[PT\], filamentous haemagglutinin \[FHA\] and pertactin \[PRN\]) antigens induced by a dose of Pentacel® when administered concomitantly with Menactra® to those elicited by a dose of Pentacel® administered alone. * To evaluate and compare the antibody responses to polyribosylribitol phosphate (PRP), tetanus and diphtheria antigens induced by a dose of Pentacel® when administered concomitantly with Menactra® to those elicited by a dose of Pentacel® alone. Observational Objectives: * To describe the safety profile (immediate unsolicited AEs within 30 minutes of each trial vaccination, solicited reactions within 7 days of each vaccination, unsolicited AEs within 30 days of each vaccination, and serious adverse events \[SAEs\] throughout the course of the trial from Day 0 up to Day 30 after the last trial vaccination\[s\]) in all trial groups * To describe the antibody responses to meningococcal serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135, measured by SBA HC, 30 days after the second Menactra® administration * To describe the antibody responses to Pentacel® (PT, FHA, PRN, FIM, diphtheria, tetanus, polio, PRP) measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), radioimmunoassay (RIA), or functional assays.

Detailed description

Participants will be vaccinated according to their randomized groups at age 9 months and at age 15 to 18 months. They will undergo immunogenicity assessment and safety monitoring post-vaccination.

Percentage of Participants Reporting Solicited Injection-site or Systemic Reactions Following Vaccination With Menactra Only, or Pentacel Only, or Menactra Concomitantly With Pentacel Vaccine

Solicited injection site reactions: Tenderness, Erythema, and Swelling. Solicited systemic reactions: Fever (Temperature), Vomiting, Abnormal crying, Drowsiness, Loss of appetite, and Irritability. Grade 3 reactions defined as: Tenderness - cries when injected limb is moved, or the movement of the injected limb is reduced; Erythema and Swelling - ≥ 50 mm; Fever \> 39.5°C or \> 103.1 °F; Vomiting - ≥ 6 episodes per 24 hours or requiring parenteral hydration; Abnormal crying \> 3 hours; Drowsiness - Sleeping most of the time or difficult to wake up; Loss of appetite - Refuses ≥ 3 feeds/meals or refuses most feeds/meals; and Irritability - Inconsolable.

Time frame: Day 0 to Day 7 after the 15 to 18 month vaccination

Population: Solicited reactions were assessed in all subjects who received at least one dose of 15 to 18 month study vaccine, according to the vaccine actually received (Safety Analysis Population).
