Primary Outcome Measures:

Percentage of Overall Subjects With Seroresponse, Directed Against Neisseria Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 29 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects with hSBA seroresponse and associated 95% Clopper-Pearson confidence interval (CI), directed against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y, evaluated by serum bactericidal assay using human complement (hSBA), at 28 days after one vaccination of MenACWY-CRM (day 29).

Seroresponse is defined as:
1. for subjects with a prevaccination hSBA titer <1:4, a postvaccination hSBA titer ≥1:8.
2. for subjects with a prevaccination hSBA titer ≥1:4, an increase in hSBA titer of at least four times the prevaccination titer.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Percentage of Subjects With Seroresponse, Directed Against N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination, by Age Group [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 29 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects with hSBA response and associated 95% CI, directed against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y, at Day 29, by age groups.

Seroresponse is defined as:
1. for subjects with a prevaccination hSBA titer <1:4, a postvaccination hSBA titer ≥1:8.
2. for subjects with a prevaccination hSBA titer ≥1:4, an increase in hSBA titer of at least four times the prevaccination titer.
Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Subjects, Directed Against N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination [ Time Frame: Day 1 and 29 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Immunogenicity was measured as hSBA GMTs and associated 95% CI, against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y, before the vaccination (Day 1) and 28 days after MenACWY-CRM vaccination (Day 29), by age group and overall.
Geometric Mean Ratios (GMRs) of Subjects, Directed Against N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 29 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Immunogenicity was measured as ratio of postvaccination GMTs to prevaccination GMTs and associated 95% CI, against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y, at 28 days after MenACWY-CRM vaccination (Day 29), by age group and overall.
Percentage of Subjects With hSBA Titer ≥1:8, Directed Against N. Meningitidis Serogroups A, C, W and Y After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination [ Time Frame: Day 1 and 29 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Immunogenicity was measured as the percentage of subjects with hSBA titer ≥1:8 and associated 95% CI, before vaccination (Day 1) and 28 days after MenACWY-CRM vaccination (Day 29), bye age group and overall.
Number of Subjects Who Reported Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination, Age 2 to 5 Years [ Time Frame: From day 1 through day 7 postvaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Safety was assessed as the number of subjects aged 2 to 5 years who reported solicited local and systemic adverse events (AEs) within days 1 through 7 after MenACWY-CRM vaccination.
Number of Subjects Who Reported Solicited Local and Systemic AEs After MenACWY-CRM Vaccination, Age 6 to 18 Years [ Time Frame: From day 1 through day 7 postvaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Safety was assessed as the number of subjects aged 6 to 18 years who reported solicited local and systemic AEs within days 1 through 7 after MenACWY-CRM vaccination.
