Population studied

Short description of the study population

The study population will include pregnant women within the US who received at least 1 dose of Bexsero® vaccine (confirmed or possible exposure) within 30 days prior to LMP or at any time during pregnancy. Bexsero® should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed, but inadvertent exposure during pregnancy might be expected because the age group targeted for the vaccine includes young women of reproductive potential.
The minimum criteria required for enrollment into the registry are as follows:
1. Sufficient evidence to confirm that exposure to a serogroup B meningococcal vaccine (confirmed or possible Bexsero® vaccination) occurred within 30 days prior to LMP or at any time during pregnancy
2. Sufficient information to determine whether the pregnancy is prospectively or retrospectively registered (i.e., whether the outcome of pregnancy was known at the time of first contact with the registry)
3. Date the pregnancy exposure is registered
4. Full reporter (i.e., HCP) contact information to allow for follow-up (name, address, etc.)

Age groups

Preterm newborn infants (0 – 27 days)

Study design details

Main study objective

The objective of the 4CMenB Pregnancy Registry is to evaluate pregnancy outcomes among women immunized with the 4CMenB vaccine within 30 days prior to LMP or at any time during pregnancy.

Outcomes

The primary outcomes of interest include major congenital malformation (MCM), preterm birth, and low birth weight (LBW). Other pregnancy outcomes including stillbirth, spontaneous abortion (SAB), induced abortion (IAB), ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy.

Data analysis plan

A SAP will be completed before the study is started.Demographic and baseline characteristics will be summarized with simple descriptive statistics and data listings. The overall prevalence of MCM will be reported as well as the prevalence of preterm births and low birth weight infants. These prevalence estimates in exposed subjects will be compared with those of the Centres for Disease Control's (CDC) National Vital Statistics System (NVSS).
