Serogroup B cause of 1/3 of disease >60% of disease in infants age <1 year Proportion will increase with MenACWY vaccine program Overall meningococcal disease incidence low Vaccines would have to cover large proportion of disease causing strains to have impact Only adolescents receive MenACWY at this time Benefits of serogroup B vaccination program increases if vaccine provides protection against other serogroups Duration of protection important as cases do occur throughout life Importance of Serogroup B Vaccines in the US

Summary • FHbp and NhbA are widely distributed among NmB and non-B Nm isolates. All isolates contain one of these two antigens. • NadA is only present in a small subset of Nm isolates. • Proportion of strains with FHbp B/v1 vary by geographic area and age group • Oregon with high B/v1 rates because of the outbreak clone • Young children and elderly more likely to have an A/2-3 strain
Summary • Distribution of the major clonal complexes among the US isolates is relatively stable over time. • PorA in the US isolates is considerably diverse, but composition of the major PorA types did not show significant variation over time • Some association was observed between clonal complex and these vaccine antigens but clonal complex cannot be used to predict vaccine antigen type.
Implications for a serogroup B vaccination program in the U.S. Potential for broad protection against serogroup B and non-B strains Data needed regarding antigen expression and their ability to induce sufficient serum bactericidal activity against the US isolates.

NmB Weighting for Oregon • To better estimate the prevalence of vaccine antigens on NmB strains circulating in the US, analyses of NmB isolates are weighted to account for the increased incidence of NmB in Oregon • A weight of 0.10 was assigned to isolates from Oregon • A weight of 0.90 (1-0.10) was assigned to isolates from other ABCs sites • All results presented for NmB will be weighted for Oregon, unless specified
