What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Subjects With hSBA ≥1:8

    Percentages of subjects with human Serum Bactericidal Assay (hSBA) ≥1:8 as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and associated 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed for each of the serogroups within each of the vaccinated groups and in age-matched control subjects.

    Time frame: At 40 and 60 months of age

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Subjects With hSBA ≥1:4

    Percentages of subjects with hSBA ≥1:4 as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and associated 95% Clopper-Pearson CIs were computed for each of the serogroups within each of the vaccinated groups and in age-matched control subjects.

    Time frame: At 40 and 60 months of age

  2. GMTs in Subjects Within Each Site and in Age-Matched Control Subjects

    The Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and 95% CIs were calculated for each vaccine group and for each serogroup by exponentiating (base 10) the least square means of the logarithmically transformed (base 10) titers and their 95% CIs obtained from a two-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with factors for vaccine group and center.

The Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) as measured by serum bactericidal activity at 40 months and 60 months of age and 95% CIs were calculated for each vaccine group and for each serogroup by exponentiating (base 10) the least square means of the logarithmically transformed (base 10) titers and their 95% CIs obtained from a two-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with factors for vaccine group and center.
