Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The serotype-specific opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean titers (GMT) for the 12 common serotypes contained in 13vPnC and 23vPS [ Time Frame: 1 month after vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • The proportion of subjects achieving a 4-fold rise in OPA titers for serotype 6A. [ Time Frame: 1 month after vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • The serotype-specific OPA GMTs for the 12 common serotypes contained in 13vPnC and 23vPS and serotype 6A [ Time Frame: 1 month after vaccination ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
