PHASE3

Brief Summary

This is a study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals 2-dose inactivated hepatitis A vaccine when administered with a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in children as young as 15 m...

Detailed Description

An open, controlled comparison of Havrix administered alone or with Prevnar. The three groups evaluated are: 1) Havrix alone, 2) Havrix plus Prevnar and 3) Prevnar followed by Havrix one month later.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • A male or female child 12 or 13 months of age at the time of entry into the Enrollment Phase,
  • Free of obvious health problems,
  • Subjects must have previously received three doses of Prevnar in his/her first year of life.

Exclusion

  • Use of any investigational or non-registered drug or vaccine within 42 days preceding the first dose of study vaccine, or planned use during the study period,
  • Chronic administration of immuno-suppressant or other immune-modifying drugs within six months prior to vaccination or planned administration at any time during the study period. (For corticosteroids, this will mean prednisone, or equivalent, less than 0.5 mg/kg/day. Inhaled, nasal and topical steroids are allowed.),
  • Administration of the ACIP-recommended fourth dose of Prevnar prior to entering the Enrollment Phase of the study,
  • Planned administration or administration of any vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol within the period of 42 days before and 30 days after each dose of study vaccine(s),
  • Previous vaccination against hepatitis A,
  • History of hepatitis A or known exposure to hepatitis A,
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection,
  • A family history of congenital, hereditary or infectious immunodeficiency or parental risk factors for HIV infection,
  • History of allergic disease/reactions or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of Havrix (e.g., neomycin, 2-phenoxyethanol) or Prevnar (e.g., diphtheria toxoid),
  • Major congenital defects or serious chronic illness,
  • History of any neurologic disorder (history of febrile seizures not associated with an underlying neurological disorder does not exclude the subject),
  • Acute disease, defined as the presence of a moderate or severe illness with or without fever, at the time of vaccination,
  • Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within three months prior to the first dose of study vaccine or planned administration at any time during the entire study period.
