What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Serum Neutralizing Antibodies (SNA) Response Against Rotavirus Serotypes G1, G2, G3, G4 and P1A[8]
Time Frame: 42 days following the 3rd vaccination
Antibody response to 3 manufactured lots of RotaTeq™ and placebo groups, based on the SNA PostDose 3 geometric mean titers (GMTs) (expressed in dilution units) against rotavirus serotypes G1, G2, G3, G4 and P1A[8]
42 days following the 3rd vaccination

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Geometric Mean Antibody Titer(s) (GMT) to Serum Anti-rotavirus Immunoglobulin A (IgA).
Time Frame: 42 days following the 3rd vaccination
Post Dose 3 serum samples were assayed for serum anti-rotavirus IgA
42 days following the 3rd vaccination
Number of Subjects With Clinical Adverse Experiences (CAEs)
Time Frame: Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Subjects in this study were followed for all CAEs, including intussusception. A CAE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product
Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Number of Subjects With Serious Clinical Adverse Experiences (SCAEs)
Time Frame: Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Subjects were followed for all SCAEs. SCAEs are any CAEs occurring at any dose that: results in death; or is life threatening; or results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; or results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization; or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or is cancer; or is an overdose.
Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Number of Subjects With Vaccine-Related Clinical AEs (CAEs)
Time Frame: Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
CAE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product. Vaccine-related CAEs are CAEs that are assessed by an investigator, who is a qualified physician, as being related to the vaccine according to his/her best clinical judgment.
Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Number of Subjects With Serious Vaccine-Related Clinical AEs (CAEs)
Time Frame: Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Serious vaccine-related CAEs are CAEs assessed by an investigator as being related to the vaccine that; results in death; or is life threatening; or results in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity; or results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization; or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or is cancer; or is an overdose
Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
Number of Subjects Discontinued Due to Clinical Adverse Experiences
Time Frame: Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
A CAE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product.
Up to 42 days following each study vaccination, or until the time of the subsequent study vaccination(s), whichever occurred first
