Filter by:Pediacel™ is currently licensed in the UK for use as a 3 dose regimen for the active immunisation of infants against Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Poliomyelitis and invasive infections caused by Haemophilus influenzae type b. However there are currently no clinical data supporting the use of Pediacel™ using a 3, 5, and 12 months of age vaccination schedule. This study is designed to provide safety and immunogenicity data to support the use of Pediacel™ according to a 3, 5, and 12 months schedule.
The present clinical study will assess the immunogenicity as the primary objective and the reactogenicity as the secondary objective of Aventis Pasteur's DTacP-IPV// PRP~T combined vaccine (Pentavac™ or Pentaxim™) as a three-dose primary vaccination at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age followed by a booster dose during the second year of life. Safety: This study will describe the safety after each dose of the primary series of the study's combined vaccine (Pentaxim™).
To assess the immunogenicity profile of ADACEL™, Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids Adsorbed combined with Component Pertussis Vaccine (TdcP Vaccine) one month after administration. To describe the safety profile of ADACEL™ (TdcP Vaccine) when given as a fifth dose.
Primary Objectives: 1. To present the safety profile after a 5th dose of DAPTACEL® in children 4 to 6 years of age who have previously received 4 doses of DAPTACEL® or Pentacel™. 2. To present the pre-Dose 5 and post-Dose 5 antibody responses to the antigens in DAPTACEL® in children 4 to 6 years of age who have previously received 4 doses of DAPTACEL® or Pentacel™. Observational Objectives: 1. To compare under equivalence criteria the pre-Dose 5 and post-Dose 5 antibody responses to the antigens in DAPTACEL® in children 4 to 6 years of age who have previously received 4 doses of DAPTACEL® or Pentacel™. 2. To present the pre-vaccination anti-poliovirus GMTs and seroprotection rates. 3. To present the post-vaccination anti-poliovirus GMTs and seroprotection rates among subjects receiving a 4th dose of IPV concurrently with the 5th dose of DAPTACEL and a 2nd dose of MMR.
To further characterize the vaccine safety profile and to identify any signals of potentially vaccine-related adverse events (AEs) not detected during pre-licensure studies.
The overall aim of the study is to corroborate that a schedule consisting of 3 doses of Pentacel™ and a 4th dose of DAPTACEL® and ActHIB® or 4 doses of Pentacel™ or 4 doses of Quadracel and ActHIB® is as safe and immunogenic as a standard of care schedule based on 3 doses of the licensed-equivalent vaccines DAPTACEL®, Vero cell derived Inactivated Poliovirus vaccine (IPOL®), and ActHIB® and a 4th dose of DAPTACEL® and ActHIB®.
The present clinical study will assess the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of Sanofi Pasteur's DTacP-IPV// PRP~T combined vaccine (Pentavac™ or Pentaxim™) as a three-dose primary vaccination at 2, 4, and 6 months of age followed by a booster dose during the second year of life and concomitant hepatitis B vaccine at 2 and 6 months of age in infants in Thailand.
The present clinical study will assess the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of Aventis Pasteur's DTacP-IPV// PRP~T combined vaccine (Pentavac™ or Pentaxim™) as a three-dose primary vaccination at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age followed by a booster dose during the second year of life in order to meet the requirements for application for the use of the product in the Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) in South Africa.
The present clinical study will assess the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of the subsequent administration of Aventis Pasteur's DTacP-IPV//PRP~T combined vaccine (PENTAVAC™/PENTAXIM), as a three-dose primary vaccination in 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age schedule followed by a booster vaccination during the second year of life with the aim to cover the WHO EPI primary vaccination schedule at this age for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis and Hib vaccines. WHO EPI vaccination schedules for hepatitis B (either 0, 6 and 14 weeks or 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age) will be also assessed in infants born to HBsAg seronegative mothers. To assess the safety of Pentaxim.
OBJECTIVES - General: To investigate the immunological background for the non-specific effects of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP) and measles vaccines on child mortality - Specific: Examine the cytokine responses and possible association with morbidity in a study of DTP vaccinated children who will be randomised to receive a measles vaccine or no vaccine at 4½ months of age. (All children will receive a measles vaccine at 9 months of age)
