THE AIMS OF MENAFRICAR
• To define the pattern of meningococcal carriage across the African meningitis belt and rates of acquisition and loss of carriage.
• To measure the impact of a new group A meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenAfriVac) on carriage and disease.

MENAFRICAR SURVEYS IN 2010
• First cross sectional studies performed July-December 2010
in seven countries.
• Group A meningococci identified only in carriers in Chad.
• Vaccine evaluation activities originally planned for Mali and
Niger moved to Chad.

THE MENINGITIS VACCINE PROJECT
Aim
Production of an affordable,
serogroup A
meningococcal conjugate
vaccine for use in Africa
Established in 2001 with support fromthe Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
WHO + PATH

MVP – ACHIEVEMENTS
• Efficient conjugation method developed and transferred
successfully to an Indian manufacturer.
• Phase 2 trials showed the vaccine to be safe and highly
immunogenic in children (Gambia and Mali) and young adults
(Mali, Senegal, Gambia).
• Vaccine safe and immunogenic in infants (Ghana).
• Vaccine licensed in India in 2009 and prequalified by WHO in 2010.
• Mass campaigns commenced in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger
in those aged 1 – 29 years at the end of 2010.

MENAFRIVAC IMMUNISATION IN CHAD
• 1.8 million 1-29 year olds immunised in a planned vaccination campaign in 3 regions in and around N’Djamena over 10 days in December 2011.
• Reactive vaccination campaigns February - May 2012 - 9 districts exceeding the epidemic threshold- 3 other adjacent districts.

MENINGITIS SURVEILLANCE
• Clinically diagnosed meningitis cases and deaths reported to district medical officer Ministry of Health WHO.
• CSF samples N’Djamena.
• Enhanced surveillance in 2012 in 3 vaccinated regions (MenAfriCar).
• Surveillance also enhanced in Moissala district, where reactive vaccination was undertaken in 2012 (MSF).

• Only 1/5001 group A carrier post-vaccination.
• 98% difference in group A carriage prevalence.
• Adjusted Odds Ratio 0.019, 95% CI 0.002, 0.14.* serogroup A capsule region, rplF allele 1 (rplF-1), and a porA gene encoding the subtype P1.20,9

CONCLUSIONS
• MenAfriVac was highly effective at preventing serogroup A invasive meningococcal disease and carriage in Chad
during an epidemic.
• Together with previous studies from Burkina Faso, this study provides strong evidence of vaccine impact.
• Further work is required to evaluate the duration of protection and the influence of vaccination on other serogroups.
