E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Primary:
To assess the immune response as measured by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA) performed with 4 primary MnB test strains, 2 expressing an LP2086 subfamily A protein and 2 expressing an LP2086 subfamily B protein, measured 1 month after the third vaccination with bivalent rLP2086 vaccine.
To demonstrate that the immune responses induced by 3 lots of bivalent rLP2086 vaccine are equivalent as measured by hSBA performed with 2 primary MnB test strains, 1 expressing an LP2086 subfamily A protein and 1 expressing an LP2086 subfamily B protein, 1 month after the third vaccination with bivalent rLP2086 vaccine.
Primary Safety:
To evaluate the safety profile of bivalent rLP2086 vaccine compared to a control (HAV/saline), as measured by local reactions, systemic events, AEs, SAEs, newly diagnosed chronic medical conditions, medically attended AEs, and immediate AEs. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To describe the immune response as measured by hSBA performed with 10 secondary MnB test strains expressing LP2086 subfamily A or B proteins, measured 1 month after the third vaccination with bivalent rLP2086 vaccine.
To describe the immune response as measured by hSBA performed with 4 primary MnB test strains, 2 expressing a LP2086 subfamily A protein and 2 expressing a LP2086 subfamily B protein, measured 1 month after the second vaccination with bivalent rLP2086 vaccine. |
