January 22, 2013 updated by: Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer

A Phase 3, Randomized, Active-Controlled, Double-blind Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of a 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Healthy Infants Given With a Meningococcal C-Tetanus Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine and Other Routine Pediatric Vaccinations in Spain

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate (13vPnC) vaccine compared to Prevenar (7vPnC), when given concomitantly with routine paediatric vaccinations in Spain.

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
