Prescribing InformationIndicationMedical Information
Dosing and CoadministrationOnly TRUMENBA demonstrates confirmed evidence of diverse MenB strain protection with a 2-dose schedule of 0 and 6 months1*†‡

Not actual patients. For illustrative purposes only.

  • If the second dose is administered earlier than 6 months after the first dose, a third dose should be administered at least 4 months after the second dose1

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends the 2 doses for persons aged 16 through 23 years who are not at increased risk for meningococcal disease, based on shared clinical decision-making.2

 The 0-, 6-month dosing schedule of TRUMENBA:
•   Proven to provide the maximum diverse MenB strain protection vs 0-, 2-month and 0-, 4-month schedules studied in TRUMENBA clinical trials1,3†

•   Offers a schedule of 0 and 6 months, similar to other adolescent vaccines, including HPV and HepA, which are associated with higher rates of adherence4,5

•   Adolescents and young adults return to their doctor after an average of 6-8 months, which may provide an opportunity to6,7§:
- Discuss preventive health 

- Conduct mental health screenings

- Achieve series completion for vaccines that align with this schedule

ACIP recommends the 3-dose schedule for persons aged ≥10 years who are in a MenB outbreak situation or at increased risk for meningococcal disease.2

These persons include those with persistent complement component deficiencies, those with anatomic or functional asplenia, or microbiologists routinely exposed to isolates of Neisseria meningitidis.1,2

TRUMENBA provides confirmed cross-reactivity against 14 diverse strains that are representative of prevalent MenB strains.1When compared with 0-, 2-month and 0-, 4-month schedules of TRUMENBA. The 0-, 2- and 0-, 4-month schedules did not provide protection against diverse strains of MenB.3The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends 2 doses for persons aged 16 through 23 years who are not at increased risk of meningococcal disease, based on shared clinical decision-making. ACIP recommends 3 doses (0, 1-2, 6 months) for persons aged 2-10 years who are at increased risk of meningococcal disease or in a MenB outbreak, to provide earlier protection and maximize short-term immunogenicity. Persons at increased risk include those with persistent complement component deficiencies, those with anatomic or functional asplenia, and microbiologists routinely exposed to isolates of Neisseria meningitidis.2Data from a March 2017 US survey of 593 young adults aged 16-21 years.6The choice of dosing schedule may depend on the risk of exposure and the patient’s susceptibility to meningococcal serogroup B disease.1Including patients with inherited or chronic deficiencies in C3, C5-9, properdin, factor D, or factor H, or who are taking eculizumab (Soliris®; Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.).1Only TRUMENBA has been studied concomitantly with 3 other adolescent vaccines1,2
  • Concomitant administration did not significantly increase local reactions or systemic events compared with TRUMENBA alone8,9
The immunogenicity of concomitantly administered TRUMENBA with HPV4, MenACWY, and Tdap vaccines was evaluated in adolescents.1,2
  • The noninferiority criteria were met for all immunogenicity endpoints for MenB strains and MenACWY and Tdap antigens, as well as HPV antigens except HPV-181
  • Seroconversion for all 4 HPV antigens was achieved by ≥99% of subjects in the groups that received HPV4 (secondary endpoint)8

Data are not available to assess the safety and immunogenicity of concomitant administration of TRUMENBA with other routine adolescent vaccines.1​​​​​​
