Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Quinvaxem Biological: Quinvaxem

A single dose (0.5 mL) of Quinvaxem contains:

diphtheria antitoxin (>= 30 IU), tetanus antitoxin (>= 60 IU), whole-cell inactive pertussis bacteria (>= 4 IU), 10 mcg Hib oligosaccharide conjugate (approx. 25 mcg CRM197), 10 mcg Hepatitis B surface antigen

One dose of Quinvaxem given at 2, 3 and 4 months of age


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Immunogenicity - Seroprotection (Seroconversion for Pertussis) to Each Vaccine Component [ Time Frame: at 5 months (equivalent to 1 month after the third vaccination) ]
    Assessment of the proportion of subjects who have seroconverted to each of the 5 vaccine components (D, T, P, HepB, Hib)

  2. Immunogenicity - Seroprotection (Seroconversion for Pertussis) to Each Vaccine Component [ Time Frame: at 14 months (equivalent to 12 months after the first vaccination ]
    Assessment of the proportion of subjects who have seroconverted to each of the 5 vaccine components (D, T, P, HepB, Hib)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Safety: Adverse and Serious Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From Day 1 up to 30 days after the third vaccination ]
    Assessment of the proportion of children with adverse events and/or serious adverse events following each Quinvaxem vaccine injection
