Safety and Efficacy Study of Investigational Pneumococcal Vaccine in Elderly Population
A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity & Immunogenicity of the GSK Biologicals Candidate Pneumococcal Vaccine Without or With Adjuvant, Administered at 2 Different Concentrations, in Healthy Elderly Subjects
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Since influenza vaccination is recommended in the age range of the study population, Fluarix™ (GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals) vaccine will be offered free of charge during the study period (for 3 consecutive years starting from September 2004), to be used by Investigators according to national vaccination schedule/practice.
The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
