Study Comparing 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine With 7-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine

January 17, 2013 updated by: Pfizer

A Phase 3, Randomized, Active-Controlled, Double-blind Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability and Immunologic Noninferiority of a 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Compared to a 7-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Healthy Infants Given With Routine Pediatric Vaccinations in the United States

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the 13-valent pneumococcal vaccine (13vPnC) compare to the 7-valent pneumococcal vaccine (7vPnC) and to compare the immune response to concomitant vaccines administered with 13vPnC and 7vPnC.
