Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity in terms of antibody response and the safety/reactogenicity in terms of solicited and unsolicited symptoms and serious adverse events following primary vaccination of Indian infants with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine GSK1024850A co-administered with a diphtheria, tetanus, whole cell pertussis (DTPw)-combined vaccine during the first 4 months of life.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Concentrations of Antibodies Against Vaccine Pneumococcal Serotypes	Concentrations were expressed as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs) in microgram per milliliter (µg/mL).; Pneumococcal serotypes included 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F.	One month after primary immunization (month 3)
Primary	Concentration of Antibody Against Protein D (PD)	Concentrations were expressed as GMCs GSK's 22F-inhibition in enzyme-linked-immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units per milliliter (EL.U/mL).	One month after primary immunization (month 3)
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Opsonophagocytic Activity Against Pneumococcal Serotypes	Vaccine pneumococcal serotypes included 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F.; Cross-reactive pneumococcal serotypes included 6A and 19A.; Opsonophagocytic activity was defined as the dilution of serum (opsonic titer) able to sustain 50% killing of live pneumococci under the assay conditions. The cut-off of the assay was an opsonic titer equal to or greater than 8.	One month after primary immunization (month 3)
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Antibody Concentrations Against Pneumococcal Serotypes Equal to or Above Cut-off Value	Vaccine pneumococcal serotypes included 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F. Cross-reactive pneumococcal serotypes included 6A and 19A.; The cut-off was defined as 0.20 microgram per milliliter (µg/mL).	One month after primary immunization
Secondary	Concentrations of Antibodies Against Pneumococcal Cross-reactive Serotypes	Concentrations were expressed as GMCs in µg/mL. Pneumococcal cross-reactive serotypes included 6A and 19A.	One month after primary immunization (month 3)
Secondary	Number of Subjects Seropositive for Pneumococcal Serotypes	Vaccine pneumococcal serotypes included 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F. Cross-reactive pneumococcal serotypes included 6A and 19A.; Seropositivity was defined as a titer equal to or greater than 0.05 µg/mL	One month after primary immunization (month 3)

Anti-PRP antibody concentration equal to or greater than 0.15 µg/mL Anti-HBs antibody concentration greater than or equal to 10 mIU/mL.	One month after primary immunization (month 3)
Secondary	Number of Seroprotected Subjects (Anti-PRP Above the Cut-off of 1.0 µg/mL)	Anti-PRP antibody concentration equal to or greater than 1.0 µg/mL.	One month after primary immunization (month 3)

Solicited general symptoms included drowsiness, fever (equal to or above 38 degrees Celsius and above 39 degrees Celsius), irritability and loss of appetite.	Within 4 days (day 0-3) after vaccination
Secondary	Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)	An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.; Unsolicited AE covers any AE reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms	Within 31 days (day 0-30) after vaccination
