Ethics approval(s)Ethics approval received 23/06/2005
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedMeningococcal disease
InterventionSingle intramuscular injection of one of the following:
1. Study vaccine group: Serum Institute of India Limited (SIIL) PsA-TT (Meningococcal A Polysaccharide conjugated to Tetanus Toxoid)
2. Reference vaccine group: Sanofi Pasteur Meningococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine A+C
3. Control vaccine group: Serum Institute of India Limited (SIIL) Tetanus Toxoid (Adsorbed) IP

Primary outcome measure(s)

Incidence of adverse events including solicited adverse events and laboratory abnormalities over 4 weeks post-vaccination

Key secondary outcome measure(s)
