Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The two principal objectives are: 1. IMMUNE RESPONSES TO MENINGITIS C AND WHOOPING COUGH: To estimate and compare the specific immune responses to concurrently administered booster vaccines against meningitis C and whooping cough in healthy adolescents. Participants will be adolescents aged 14 to 17 years, who have completed the UK childhood schedule of meningitis C and whooping cough vaccines appropriate for their age. Each participant in the trial will receive two vaccines given concomitantly: (a) a single dose of ONE of Meningitec™, Menjugate™, NeisVac-C™ , or Menitorix™ (meningitis C vaccines). (b) EITHER Repevax or IPV-Boostrix (whooping cough containing vaccines). Thus there will be eight different combinations of meningitis C and whooping cough-containing vaccines (and accordingly, eight arms/groups of study participants) Blood levels of specific antibodies against meningitis C and whooping cough will be measured in each participant. The measurements will be taken
    Protection of trial subjects
    Fieldwork undertaken by specialist vaccine research nurses trained in paediatric venepuncture techniques. Participants who were consented to provide blood samples were offered local anaesthetic cream prior to venepuncture

    Statistical analysis description
    In brief, a per-protocol analysis will be completed for the immunogenicity data. Proportions with meningococcal serogroup C-specific rSBA titers ≥8 and ≥ 128 as well as GMTs will be calculated with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) within each study arm and also aggregating across the dTaP arms (after testing for an interaction at 1% level). Proportions with ≥4-fold rises in SBA from baseline and geometric mean fold rises from baseline will also be calculated with 95% CIs.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Numbers recruited less than planned due to changing availability of concomitant meningococcal c containing vaccines . Power calculation redone to ensure adequate numbers in ARM1 and ARM2 given the quadrivalent ACYW vaccine concomitantly
