Filter by:DTPa and IPV vaccines are recommended for immunization of infants in Korea. The use of combination vaccines simplifies routine paediatric vaccination. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
New immunization recommendations in the US include vaccination of adolescents against pertussis and meningococcal disease. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that Tdap (Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid And Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed) and MCV4 (Meningococcal conjugate vaccine against serotypes A, C, Y and W-135) vaccines be administered to adolescents at the same office visit if vaccination with both vaccines is indicated. Therefore, this study is designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a booster vaccination with Boostrix co-administered with Menactra as compared to the administration of either vaccine alone in healthy adolescents 11 - 18 years of age.
The aims of this study are to compare the immunogenicity and safety of the GSK Biologicals' combined DTaP-IPV vaccine with separate administration of DTaP and IPV vaccines, when administered as a fifth dose of acellular pertussis vaccine to children aged 4 to 6 years when co-administered with MMR vaccine in subjects who had previously received four doses of Infanrix, three doses of poliovirus-containing vaccine and MMR vaccination.
The aims of this study are to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a booster dose of GSK Biological's candidate Tdap vaccine containing 0.3 mg Al when administered to healthy school children and adolescents (9-13 years of age) previously vaccinated with five consecutive doses of Pa-containing vaccine. The inclusion of hepatitis A vaccine (Havrix®) as a control vaccine enables this study to be conducted in a double-blinded in terms of immunogenicity and safety assessments.
The aims of this trial are to demonstrate the consistency of three manufacturing lots of GSK Biologicals' DTaP-IPV candidate vaccine in terms of immunogenicity and to evaluate the non-inferiority of GSK Biologicals' DTaP-IPV vaccine with respect to immunogenicity and safety compared to the control vaccines (separate injections of GSK Biologicals' DTaP vaccine [Infanrix] and Aventis Pasteur's IPV vaccine [IPOL]) when administered as a 5th dose of DTaP and a 4th dose of inactivated poliovirus vaccine in subjects 4 to 6 years of age. Vaccines will be co-administered with the second dose of M-M-RII, which is recommended at this age. Concomitant administration of a US-licensed influenza vaccine will be allowed according to seasonal availability of vaccine and at the discretion of the investigator.
Pre-licensure studies of GSK Biologicals' PEDIARIX vaccine have shown it to be generally safe and unlikely to result in vaccine-associated serious adverse events. This post-licensure study is designed to evaluate relatively uncommon/rare outcomes in a large population cohort.
This study will evaluate the safety and immune response to GlaxoSmithKline Tdap vaccine compared to licensed Td vaccine when used as a booster in healthy adolescents (10-18 years of age).
