Safety and immunogenicity of fully liquid DTaP(5)-IPV-Hib pediatric combination vaccine (Pediacel([REGISTERED])) compared to DTaP(3)-HBV-IPV/Hib (Infanrix([REGISTERED]) Hexa) when coadministered with heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) as a booster at 11-18 months of age: A phase III, modified double-blind, randomized, controlled, multicenter study.

摘要

This study compared the safety and immunogenicity of DTaP(5)-IPV-Hib vaccine (followed by monovalent hepatitis B vaccine [HBV]) and DTaP(3)-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccines, both coadministered with PCV7, as a fourth-dose booster in toddlers 11-18 months who had a hexavalent vaccine primary series. The fever rate within 4 days of DTaP(5)-IPV-Hib was noninferior to DTaP(3)-HBV-IPV/Hib. DTaP(5)-IPV-Hib induced a marked immune response and had a similar safety and immunogenicity profile compared with DTaP(3)-HBV-IPV/Hib. Fully liquid DTaP(5)-IPV-Hib can be used as a booster after a hexavalent vaccine primary series; where required, a fourth dose of monovalent HBV can be administered after DTaP(5)-IPV-Hib (NCT ID: NCT00355654)
