Prevenar Special Use-result Surveillance in Japan (Regulatory PostMarketing Commitment Plan)

Completed
Conditions
Streptococcus Pneumoniae
Pneumococcal Vaccine
Interventions
Biological: 7-valent vaccine injection
Registration Number
NCT01521897
Lead Sponsor
Pfizer
Brief Summary

This surveillance aims to figure out 1) use-results, 2) occurrence of adverse events, and 3) factors affecting safety in terms of the safety in infants starting to receive Prevenar at the age of more than 2 and less than 7 months in routine medical practice.

This surveillance will specifically focus on the occurrence of the following:

1. Local reactions at the injection site

2. Systemic reactions for each concomitant vaccine (especially fever more than 39C°)

Detailed Description

This surveillance will be conducted using a continuous surveillance system, in which each physician enrolls patients who meet the enrollment criteria continuously until the contract sample size is reached.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Adverse Reactions28 days

An adverse reaction was any untoward medical occurrence which was considered to be related to Prevenar™ (7-valent) in a participant who received Prevenar™ (7-valent). Relatedness to Prevenar™ (7-valent) was assessed by the sponsor (Pfizer Japan Inc.).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Injection Site Reactions28 days

Injection site reactions (erythema, induration, tenderness, and warmth) were defined by preferred terms of MedDRA/J version 16.0 as follows: erythema for "injection site erythema"; induration for "injection site erythema" and "injection site swelling"; tenderness for "injection site pain"; and warmth for "injection site warmth".

Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events28 days

A serious adverse event was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.

Number of Participants With Systemic Reactions (Pyrexia) by Pattern of Concomitant Vaccination28 days

Number of participants with pyrexia (MedDRA/J version 16.0 preferred terms) at each vaccination time (first to fourth) was counted by each pattern of concomitant vaccination. The concomitant vaccines (CVs) used in this survey were; vaccines against Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis (DPT), measles and rubella (MR), influenza (Flu), bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), vesicular stomatitis Indiana virus (VSV), Mumps, Hepatitis B (HB); and oral polio vaccine (OPV) and inactivated polio vaccine (IPV).

Number of Participants With Systemic Reactions (Pyrexia of Over 39C°) by Pattern of Concomitant Vaccination28 days

Number of participants with pyrexia (MedDRA/J version 16.0 preferred terms) of over 39C° at each vaccination time (first to fourth) was counted by each pattern of concomitant vaccination. The concomitant vaccines (CVs) used in this survey were; vaccines against Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis (DPT), measles and rubella (MR), influenza (Flu), bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), vesicular stomatitis Indiana virus (VSV), Mumps, Hepatitis B (HB); and oral polio vaccine (OPV) and inactivated polio vaccine (IPV).
