- Not specified
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Safety: Measuring time: 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 and 30 days after each dose. Measured as: Local Events (Erythema, Induration, Pain, Infiltration, abscess) and Sistemic Events (Fever, feverish, irritability, vomits, persistent crying, anaphylactic shock).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Immunogenicity: Measuring time: 30 days after the 3rd dose (last dose). Measured as: Anti-HBsAg titres = 10 IU/L, and % of hyper-response (anti-HBsAg titres = 100 IU/L). Titres against the diphtheria and tetanic toxoids = 0.1 IU/mL, Titres anti-B. pertussis specific = 11 UN (Novatec Units) to the value of cut of the determination. Titres anti-PRP of Hib = 0.15 µg/mL and = 1.0 µg/mL long term protection.
