Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To evaluate the pneumococcal immune responses induced by 13vPnC relative to the pneumococcal immune responses induced by 7 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (7vPnC) when measured 1 month after the infant series.<br>To evaluate the acceptability of the safety profile of 13vPnC as measured by the <br>incidence rates of local reactions, systemic events, and adverse events (AEs).<br>;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the pneumococcal immune responses induced by 13vPnC relative to the pneumococcal immune responses induced by 7vPnC when measured 1 month after the toodler dose.<br>;Primary end point(s): Percentage of Subjects Achieving a Serotype-specific Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Antibody Level Greater Than or Equal to (=) 0.35 Micrograms Per Milliliter (Mcg/mL) Measured 1 Month After the Infant Series;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 month after the infant series (7 months of age)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Percentage of Subjects Achieving a Serotype-specific IgG Antibody Level =0.35 Mcg/mL Measured 1 Month After the Toddler Dose ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 month after the toddler dose (13 months of age)
