Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/01/2014 -- Meningococcal disease is an acute infection caused by the gram-negative bacterium Neisseria meningitidis. Its rapid onset and severity of symptoms makes prompt and effective diagnosis and treatment nearly impossible. For these reasons the meningococcal disease space is dominated by vaccines.

Menactra (Meningococcal Groups A, C, Y, W-135 polysaccharide diphtheria toxoid conjugate vaccine) is the brand name for Sanofi's tetravalent conjugate vaccine sold in the US and Australia to protect children, adolescents, and adults against four serogroups of N. meningitidis that cause invasive meningococcal disease. In 2005, Menactra became the first conjugate vaccine to be approved in the US for those 11 to 55 years of age. Approval was expanded to those from two to 55 years of age in the US in 2007, and to those as young as nine months of age in 2011, and it was also licensed for use in Australia in 2011.
