PCR-positive pertussis cases
Cases will be all individuals who tested PCR-positive for pertussis and negative for parapertussis during the study period and who received 5 doses of DTaP vaccines (either manufactured by GSK or any brand, depending on study objective) through 84 months of age before testing PCR-positive.

Biological: Infanrix
Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed Indicated as a 5-dose series in infants and children 6 weeks to 7 years of age. Biological: Pediarix Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Ad-sorbed, Hepatitis B (Recombinant) and Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine Indicated as a 3-dose series in infants born of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-negative mothers. PEDIARIX may be given as early as 6 weeks of age through 6 years of age (prior to the 7th birthday). Biological: Kinrix Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Ad-sorbed and Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine |
PCR-negative pertussis controls
Controls will consist of persons who tested PCR-negative for both pertussis and parapertussis and who received 5 DTaP doses (either manufactured by GSK or any brand, depending on study objective) before testing PCR negative.

KPNC-matched controls
Controls will consist of all KPNC members of the same sex, age (year and quarter of birth), race or ethnic group (7 groups; 6 for reported, 1 for imputed), and medical centre as each pertussis case and who were members on the date the case tested PCR-positive (anchor date).

- Estimated GSK-only DTaP relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed) [ Time Frame: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (GSK-only) vaccine ]Estimation done by comparing time since the 5th DTaP dose between PCR-positive cases and PCR-negative controls
- Estimated DTaP (any brand) relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed) [ Time Frame: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (any brand) vaccine ]Estimation done by comparing time since the 5th DTaP dose between PCR-positive cases and PCR-negative controls
- Estimated GSK-only DTaP relative decrease in protection against pertussis disease (PCR-confirmed) [ Time Frame: Between 1 and 84 months of age of the subjects who received all 5 doses of DTaP (GSK-only) vaccine ]Estimation derived from comparing PCR-positive cases and matched controls

Ages Eligible for Study: | 47 Months to 15 Years (Child) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | Yes |
Sampling Method: | Non-Probability Sample |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) member who received 5 doses of acellular pertussis vaccines be-tween ages 1 month and 84 months at KPNC.
- The 5th dose was given between the ages of 47 and 84 months.
- All 5 DTaP doses received were manufactured by GSK, depending on study objective (otherwise this criterion will not apply).
- Born in 1999 and later.
Inclusion criteria for cases:
• All individuals meeting above inclusion criteria who tested PCR-positive for pertussis and negative for parapertussis during the study period.
Inclusion criteria for PCR-negative controls:
• All individuals meeting above inclusion criteria who tested PCR-negative for both pertussis and parapertussis during the study period.
Inclusion criteria for KPNC-matched controls:
- All individuals from the general KPNC population meeting above inclusion criteria who match a PCR-positive case on sex, age, race or ethnic group, and medical center.
- KPNC members on the day their matched case under-went the PCR test (anchor date).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Individuals whose PCR test date (or anchor date) is less than 2 weeks after receiving their 5th DTaP dose.
- Individuals who were not KPNC members for greater than 3 months between their 5th DTaP dose and PCR test date (or anchor date).
- Individuals who received reduced antigen content pertussis vaccine (Tdap) or any pertussis-containing vaccine after their 5th DTaP dose but before their PCR test date (or anchor date).
Exclusion criteria for controls:
• Individuals will be excluded from serving as a control once they test positive for pertussis.
