Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: A Phase IV, Single Centre, Open-label Study to Investigate the Kinetics of the B Cell Response to the C Saccharide Component of Chiron's Meningococcal C Conjugate Vaccine Administered to Healthy Child

Brief Summary: Persistence of antibodies and kinetics of B cell response in healthy children after vaccination with MCC vaccine

Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Novartis Vaccines

Current Primary Outcome: Persistence of memory B cells in the blood at least one year after primary immunisation with MenC Vaccine at 2, 3 and 4 months of age, as determined by meningococcal C specific B-cell ELISPot assay or limiting dilution

Original Primary Outcome:

Current Secondary Outcome:

  • Immune Response measured 4 weeks after the booster immunisation.
  • establish at which day CRM -197 specific B cells are detectable in the blood after booster immunisation, as determined by meningococcal C specific B-cell ELISpot assay or limiting dilution.
