Overview

A quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY) is a biologic vaccine designed to provide active immunization against invasive meningococcal disease caused by *Neisseria meningitidis* serogroups A, C, W-135, and Y. Unlike older polysaccharide vaccines, the conjugate formulation chemically links the capsular polysaccharides of the bacteria to a carrier protein (such as CRM197, tetanus toxoid, or diphtheria toxoid). This conjugation converts the T-cell independent polysaccharide antigens into T-cell dependent antigens, inducing immunological memory, higher antibody titers, and longer-lasting protection across all age groups, including infants. It also has the potential to reduce nasopharyngeal carriage of the bacteria, thereby contributing to herd protection.
