US pharma giant Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) has announced positive top-line results of a Phase II study of Trumenba (meningococcal group b vaccine) co-administered with FDA-approved, routine meningococcal and single-dose tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis vaccines.

The study of more than 2,600 healthy individuals of 10-12 years of age met its co-primary immunogenicity objectives regarding co-administration of Trumenba with the other vaccines.

Data from a recently completed Phase III study also demonstrated the safety and tolerability of the drug in approximately 5,600 healthy individuals aged 10 to 25, and were consistent with data from studies supporting the October 2014 accelerated approval of Trumenba in the USA.
