What this trial studies
This study evaluates the safety and immune response of the rMenB+OMV NZ vaccine in healthy infants starting from 2 months of age in South Korea. Participants will receive a primary series of two doses, with the first dose administered between 2 to 5 months and the second dose two months later, followed by a booster dose at 12 to 15 months. The study is conducted as a post-approval commitment to ensure the vaccine's effectiveness and safety in the target population. Routine infant vaccinations will be coordinated with the study schedule, adhering to specific intervals.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this vaccine could significantly reduce the incidence of Meningitis B in infants, enhancing public health outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies on meningococcal vaccines have shown promising results, indicating a potential for success in this approach.
