Immunogenicity and Safety of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib Compared to DTPa-IPV/Hib and HBV Administered Concomitantly

This study will assess the immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals' (formerly SmithKline Beecham Biologicals') DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib (Infanrix hexa™) vaccine compared to the separate administration of DTPa-HBV-IPV (Infanrix™ penta) and Hib (Hiberix™) vaccines administered at 3 and 5 months of age.

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Free of obvious health problems as established by medical history and clinical examination before entering into the study.
  • Written informed consent obtained from the parents or guardians of the subject after they have been advised of the risks and benefits of the study in a language which they clearly understood, and before performance of any study procedure.

Exclusion criteria

  • Use of any investigational or non-registered drug or vaccine other than the study vaccine(s) during the study period or within 30 days preceding the first dose of study vaccine.
  • Administration of chronic immunosuppressants or immune-modifying drugs during the study period.
  • Administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol during the period starting from one month before each dose and ending one month after each dose.
  • Previous vaccination against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, polio and/or Hib diseases.
  • History of/or intercurrent diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, polio and/or Hib disease.
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
  • History of allergic disease or reaction likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine, including allergic reactions to neomycin and polymyxin B.
  • Major congenital defects or serious chronic illness.
  • Progressive neurological disorders.
  • Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products since birth and during the study period.
  • Acute febrile illness at the time of planned vaccination.

Treatment and study plan

DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib (Infanrix-hexa™)

Biological

3 doses administered intramuscularly into the right thigh at study month 0, 2 and 8

DTPa-IPV/Hib (Infanrix-IPV/Hib™)

Biological

3 doses administered intramuscularly into the right thigh at study month 0, 2 and 8

HBV (Engerix™-B)

Biological

3 doses administered intramuscularly into the left thigh at study month 0, 2 and 8

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of subjects with antibody titers equal to or greater than cut-off value.

    Time frame: One month after the 2nd dose of the primary vaccination course (month 3)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Immunogenicity with respect to components of the study vaccines in terms of number of seropositive subjects

    Time frame: One month after the 2nd dose (Month 3), before and one month after the 3rd dose of the primary vaccination course (Months 8 and 9)

  2. Immunogenicity with respect to components of the study vaccines in terms of antibody titers

    Time frame: One month after the 2nd dose (Month 3), before and one month after the 3rd dose of the primary vaccination course (Months 8 and 9)

  3. Immunogenicity with respect to components of the study vaccines in terms of number of subjects with a vaccine response

    Time frame: One month after the 3rd dose of the primary vaccination course (Month 9)

  4. Occurrence of solicited local symptoms

    Time frame: Within 4 days after each vaccination and overall

  5. Occurrence of solicited general symptoms

    Time frame: Within 4 days after each vaccination and overall

  6. Occurrence of unsolicited symptoms

    Time frame: Within 30 days after each vaccination, and overall

  7. Occurrence of serious AEs

    Time frame: Throughout the entire study (approximately 9 months per subject) up to and including 30 days post-vaccination
