Primary vaccination study (NCT00464815): Difference between groups in percentage of subjects with rSBA vaccine response one month after vaccination (Primary ATP immunogenicity re-analysis cohort).

  MenACWY-TT
Men-PS
Difference in VR rate
(ACWY-TT minus Men-PS)
Serogroup N n %VR [95% CI] N n % VR [95% CI] % [95% CI]
A 553 472 85.4** [82.1; 88.2] 191 148 77.5 [70.9; 83.2] 7.87 [1.63*; 14.87]

ATP = According-to-Protocol

VR = vaccine response defined as:

For initially seronegative subjects: antibody titer ≥ 1:32 post-vaccination

For initially seropositive subjects: antibody titer post-vaccination that is ≥ 4-fold the pre-vaccination antibody titer

N = number of subjects with both pre- and post-vaccination results available

n/% = number/percentage of subjects with a vaccine response

95% CI = exact 95% confidence interval

*

Lower limit of 95% CI was above pre-specified clinical non-inferiority limit of −10%

**

statistically higher value in ACWY-TT group than in Men-PS group (exploratory analysis)
