Filter by:The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of GSK Biologicals' pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (GSK1024850A) in preventing invasive disease caused by S. pneumoniae or H. influenzae and in reducing occurrence of hospital-diagnosed pneumonia cases, tympanostomy tube placement and outpatient antimicrobial prescriptions in children starting vaccination below 18 months of age. These data will be collected from the national registers and will be analyzed in combination with data collected for subjects enrolled in a large scale cluster-randomized study 111442. The study will also assess the immune response to the GSK1024850A vaccine and the impact of the vaccine on occurrence of acute otitis media, carriage, safety in children starting vaccination below 18 months of age.
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. The study will be conducted in India.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of 2 formulations of a non-typable Haemophilus influenzae and pneumococcal candidate vaccine in young adults. Subjects will be vaccinated 2 times in an observer-blind manner with an interval of 2 months. The subjects receiving Engerix-B will receive in an open-manner a third dose of the vaccine at Month 6. The protocol posting has been updated following a protocol amendment.
Purpose: To study the immune response of the newly licensed pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) in comparison to the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) to determine if a significantly better immunologic response to boosting can be elicited in patients previously vaccinated with PPV.
The present study intends to investigate the use as a booster of a dose of sanofi pasteur's Pneumo 23 vaccine in the second year of life following 3-dose priming with Wyeth's Prevnar vaccine. The researchers will use a cohort of subjects who have received 3 doses of Prevnar® at 2, 4, 6 months of age in the context of the clinical study A3L12 on Hexavalent combined vaccine (DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T)
Premature infants are at a high risk for pneumonia. The PCV-7 vaccine effectively prevents the invasive disease from Streptococcus pneumoniae in full-term infants, but was not thoroughly studied in premature infants. This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine given in routine practice to very low birth weight infants, looking at blood antibody levels 4-6 weeks after the final vaccine dose, and adverse events, survival, infections, and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18-22 months corrected age.
To compare the relative immunogenicity and reactogenicity of the existing 23 valent plain pneumococcal vaccine and a 7 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in healthy UK adults aged 50-80 years, and subsequent antibody persistence and response to boosting.
The purpose of the trial is to determine the minimum of doses of a new nine valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine required to protect UK infants and toddlers
