Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the equivalence of rMenB+OMV NZ lot 1 to rMenB+OMV NZ lot 2 when administered to adolescents, as measured by human serum bactericidal activity (hSBA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) against 3 N. meningitidis serogroup B reference strains (H44/76, 5/99, and NZ98/254) and as measured by ELISA geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) against vaccine antigen 287-953, approximately 30 days after a primary vaccination course of two doses administered one month apart.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male and female subjects (11-17 years of age inclusive) who have given their written assent and whose parents or legal guardians have given written informed consent at the time of enrollment
  • who are available for all the visits scheduled in the study (i.e., not planning to leave the area before the end of the study period)
  • in good health as determined by the outcome of medical history, physical examination and clinical judgment of the investigator.

Exclusion Criteria

  • History of any serogroup B meningococcal vaccination
  • Current or previous, confirmed or suspected disease caused by N. meningitidis
  • Exposure to an individual with any laboratory confirmed N. meningitidis infection within 60 days of enrollment
  • Significant acute or chronic infection within the previous 7 days or fever (defined as axillary temperature ≥ 38.0 °C) within the previous day
  • Antibiotic use within 3 days (72 hours) prior to enrollment
  • Pregnancy or nursing (breastfeeding) mothers
  • Females of childbearing age who have not used or do not plan to use acceptable birth control measures, for the 2 months duration of the study. If sexually active the subject must have been using one of the accepted birth control methods for at least 30 days prior to study entry
  • Any serious chronic or progressive disease, Known or suspected impairment/alteration of the immune system
  • Receipt of blood, blood products and/or plasma derivatives, or a parenteral immunoglobulin preparation within the previous 90 days
  • History of severe allergic reactions after previous vaccinations or hypersensitivity to any vaccine component
