Study to Assess if Quinvaxem Can be Interchanged With Other Pentavalent Vaccines During Standard Childhood Vaccination

Summary

This is a study to show that vaccination with 1 dose of Tritanrix HB+Hib followed by Quinvaxem vaccine as the 2nd and 3rd dose is not inferior to vaccination with Quinvaxem for all 3 doses, with respect to protection against all antibodies (anti-hepatitis B surface antibodies, anti-polyribosyl ribitol phosphate (PRP), anti-diphtheria, anti-tetanus and anti-Bordetella pertussis) 1 month after completion of the 6-10-14 week vaccination course.
