Filter by:Primary objective: - To determine the safety and immunogenicity of tetanus and diphtheria toxoids adsorbed combined with component pertussis and inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine grown on vero cells (TdcP-IPV) compared to tetanus and diphtheria toxoids adsorbed combined with component pertussis and inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine grown on vero cells (TdcP-IPV) and Hepatitis B vaccine administered concurrently in adolescents 11-14 years of age. Secondary objective: - To determine whether concurrent administration of TdcP-IPV and Hepatitis B vaccines at 11-14 years of age results in detectable immunologic interactions between components of the two vaccines.
The purpose of this study is to perform an epidemiological survey of the adult population in Hungary to calculate the seroprevalence of pertussis.
This is a follow-up of the primary series vaccination schedule in Study A3L24 (NCT01177722) and booster vaccination in Study A3L27 (NCT01444781). Study Objective: - To describe the long-term antibody persistence at 3.5 and 4.5 years of age following a 3-dose primary series vaccination of either DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP-T+Prevenar™ (PCV7) +Rotarix™ or Infanrix hexa™+Prevenar™ (PCV7) +Rotarix™ vaccination at 2, 4, 6 months of age and a booster vaccination of DTaP-IPV-Hep B-PRP-T+Prevenar™ (PCV7) or Infanrix hexa™+Prevenar™ (PCV7) at 12 to 24 months of age. Observational Objectives: - To describe the long-term antibody persistence by group and by stratification on the age at inclusion of the A3L27 booster study. - To describe the effect of one additional oral dose of stand alone poliovirus isotypes 1, 2 and 3 vaccine* on the antibody persistence immune response for poliovirus isotypes (4 vs 5 doses of poliovirus administered).
The purpose of this study is to describe the immunogenicity and safety of a novel DTaP- IPV- Hep B-PRT~T fully liquid combined hexavalent vaccine (Hexaxim™) administered at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age in infants born to mothers documented to be serum anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) serology negative in India. Primary Objective: - To evaluate the immunogenicity of the study vaccine in terms of seroprotection [diphtheria toxoid, tetanus toxoid, poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) polysaccharide (PRP), hepatitis B (Hep B)] and vaccine response for pertussis antigens [pertussis toxoid (PT) and filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA)] one month after the third dose. Secondary Objectives: - To further describe the immunogenicity of the study vaccine, before the first dose and one month after the third dose. - To describe the safety after each and any doses of the study vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to collect safety information from pre-adolescents, adolescents and adults after Boostrix vaccination is administered according to the approved prescribing information in Korea.
This study aims to estimate the risk factors associated with pertussis/whopping cough infection among infants less than one year of age in a United States (U.S.) commercially insured population. The study will utilize a large research data base associated with a geographically diverse U.S. health plan not limited by one geographic area or disease outbreak to evaluate pertussis in infants between 2005 and 2010. Healthcare costs and utilization among infants with a reported diagnosis of pertussis/whooping cough stratified by the number of DTaP vaccinations received prior to infection will also be reported.
This study aims to establish an effective method to inform parents or close relatives of newborns about the risk of pertussis transmission to newborns and the advantages offered by the cocooning strategy (vaccinating those who are in close contact with the newborn) by assessing the factors that affect the parents' decision-making to accept pertussis immunisation.
This study is a small-scale randomized, placebo-controlled factorial trial of two interventions to increase Tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis (Tdap) immunization rates among infant caregivers. Specifically, the trial will compare a full cost vs. $5 Tdap voucher with or without an educational video.
This study aims to determine the sero-prevalence of anti-pertussis antibodies among healthcare professionals at hospital centres in Spain.
Despite good vaccination coverage, included in national immunization programs in developed countries, the number of reported pertussis cases is rising, also in very young infants. Current immunization strategies fail to protect infants too young to be immunized with the licensed vaccine. Different strategies are possible to close the gap of susceptibility between the loss of maternal antibodies and protection by vaccination. The main aim of the present study is to measure the influence of an adult pertussis booster in pregnant women, on the titer and duration of maternal antibodies in their infants. Early humoral immunity will be assessed and the influence on vaccine response of the infant measured. The present study offers the opportunity to have new insights in neonatal immunological mechanisms against pertussis and a better understanding in strategies to protect infants against pertussis.
