Percentage of Participants Reporting Prompted Local Reactions Within 7 Days After Vaccination |
Local reactions included redness, swelling and, pain at the injection site, recorded by parent's/legal guardians of participants in an electronic diary (e-diary). Redness and swelling were measured and recorded in measuring device units. One measuring device unit =0.5 centimeter (cm). Redness and swelling were graded as mild: > 0.0 to 2.0 cm, moderate: >2.0 to 7.0 cm and severe: >7.0 cm. Pain at the injection site was graded as mild: hurt if gently touched (cohort 1) and did not interfere with activity (cohort 2-4); moderate: hurt if gently touched with crying (cohort 1) and interfered with daily activity (cohort 2-4) and; severe: limited limb movement (cohort 1) and prevented daily activity (cohort 2-4). 95 percent (%) confidence interval (CI) was based on Clopper and Pearson method. |

Percentage of Participants Reporting Prompted Systemic Events Within 7 Days After Vaccination: Cohort 1 |
Systemic events for Cohort 1 included fever, decreased appetite, drowsiness/increased sleep and irritability, recorded by parents/legal guardians of participant's using an e-diary. Fever was defined as temperature >=38.0 degrees Celsius (C) and categorized as >=38.0 to 38.4 degrees C, >38.4 to 38.9 degrees C, >38.9 to 40.0 degrees C and >40.0-degrees C. Decreased appetite was graded as mild (decreased interest in eating), moderate (decreased oral intake) and severe (refusal to feed). Drowsiness was graded as mild (increased or prolonged sleeping bouts), moderate (slightly subdued, interfered with daily activity) and severe (disabling, not interested in usual daily activity). Irritability: graded as mild (easily consolable), moderate (required increased attention) and severe (inconsolable, crying could not be comforted). 95% CI was based on Clopper and Pearson method. |

Geometric Mean Fold Rises (GMFRs) of Pneumococcal Serotype-Specific Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Concentrations for the 7 Additional Serotypes From Before to 1 Month After 20vPnC Vaccination: Cohort 1 and 2 |
Pneumococcal serotype-specific IgG concentrations were measured from serum samples for the 7 additional 20vPnC serotypes: 8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F and 33F. GMFR = geometric mean of fold rise from before vaccination on Day 1 to 1 month after vaccination with 20vPnC. GMFRs and corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of fold rises and the corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs (based on Student's t distribution). Superiority of IgG concentration 1 month after 20vPnC to before vaccination for each serotype was demonstrated if the 95% lower CI of GMFR was >1. |
