Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the production of antibodies to a new conjugate vaccine, NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT, as a measure of vaccine effectiveness, compared to the production of antibodies to a similar, licensed meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y, W-135) polysaccharide diphtheria toxoid (DT) conjugate vaccine. The investigators will also evaluate the safety of NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT™ conjugate vaccine compared to the licensed vaccine. The hypothesis is that the test vaccine is comparable to the licensed active control vaccine.

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Test Vaccine

NmVac4-A/C/Y/W-135-DT™ conjugate is a vaccine in liquid form composed of purified polysaccharides (PS) conjugated to diphtheria toxoid. Single intramuscular 0.5 mL dose contains 4 µg each of Serogroup A, C, W-135, and Y PS conjugated to approximately 26 µg total diphtheria toxoid.

BIOLOGICAL

US Licensed Vaccine

Meningococcal (Groups A,C,Y,W-135) Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine 0.5 mL dose, intramuscular. Single dose contains 4 µg each Serogroup A, C, W-135 and Y conjugated to approximately 48 µg total diphtheria toxoid.
