1. A method of inducing an immune response against a Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A strain expressing B16 factor H binding protein in a human comprising mixing (a) a composition comprising (i) a first lipidated polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; (ii) a second lipidated polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2; (iii) a Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A (MenA) capsular saccharide conjugated to an adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH) linker, wherein the linker is conjugated to tetanus toxoid (TT); (iv) a Neisseria meningitidis serogroup C (MenC) capsular saccharide conjugated to an ADH linker, wherein the linker is conjugated to tetanus toxoid (TT); (v) a Neisseria meningitidis serogroup W135 (MenW) capsular saccharide conjugated to tetanus toxoid (TT) (MenW-TT conjugate); and (vi) a Neisseria meningitidis serogroup Y (MenY) capsular saccharide directly conjugated to tetanus toxoid (TT) (MenY-TT conjugate); and (b) administering an effective amount of the composition to the human, wherein the composition comprises about 5 μg of the MenA capsular saccharide conjugated to about 7.5 μg of the TT; about 5 μg of the MenC capsular saccharide conjugated to about 7.5 μg of the TT; about 5 μg of the MenW capsular saccharide conjugated to about 3.75 μg of the TT; and about 5 μg of the MenY capsular saccharide conjugated to about 3.25 μg of the TT per dose; and further comprises aluminum.
