Understanding the Immune Response to Two Different Meningitis Vaccines

A Single Centre, Open-label, Randomised Clinical Study to Investigate Meningococcal Serogroup A and C Saccharide Specific B Cell Responses in Adult Volunteers to One of Three Regimens of Meningococcal ACWY Conjugate Vaccine or Meningococcal ACWY Polysaccharide Vaccine Priming Doses Followed by a Booster Dose of the Meningococcal ACWY Conjugate Vaccine

The phenotype of meningococcal serogroup A specific B cells will be observed at day 7 following the initial immunisation with full dose quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine, 1/5th dose quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine and quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine by Fluorescent Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) analysis. This will be performed at the laboratories of the Oxford Vaccine Group, University of Oxford.

The phenotype of meningococcal serogroup C specific B cells will be observed at day 28 following the initial immunisation with full dose quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine, 1/5th dose quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine and quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine using flow cytometry.

The measurement of meningococcal serogroup A and C specific memory B cells at day 28 following the initial immunisation with full dose quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine, 1/5th dose Quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine or quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine, and after the booster immunisation with the conjugate vaccine.
