The study is designed to evaluate the persistence of bactericidal antibodies in subjects aged 15 to 23 years (not yet 24 years) who had been vaccinated five years previously in Study MTA02 and did not participate in Study MTA19 (NCT 00777790). In addition, the kinetics of the antibody response will be evaluated in a subset of these participants who will receive a booster dose of Menactra® vaccine. This will be compared to aged matched control subjects who have not been previously vaccinated with a meningococcal vaccine or had documented meningitis disease who will also receive a dose of Menactra® vaccine.

Participants With Serum Bactericidal Activity of ≥ 1:8 for Each Menactra® Vaccine Serogroups Pre-vaccination and 28 Days Post-booster or Post-primary Dose Vaccination.
Groups 1 and 2 received booster vaccination, Groups 3 and 4 received primary vaccination. Serum bactericidal activity for each Menactra® vaccine serogroups were at pre-vaccination and at 28 days post-booster or post-primary vaccination.
Time frame: 28 days post-vaccination (5 years after Menactra® or Menomune® vaccination)
