Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Diphteria Toxoid (D) and Tetanus Toxoid (T)At Month 3

A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations higher than or equal to (≥) 0.1 international units per milliliter (IU/mL).

Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Polyribosyl-ribitol Phosphate (PRP)At Month 3

A seroprotected subject was defined as a vaccinated subject with an anti-PRP antibody concentration higher than or equal to (≥) 0.15 microgram/milliliter (µg/mL).

Number of Subjects With a Vaccine Response to Pertussis Toxoid (PT), Filamentous Haemagglutinin (FHA) and Pertactin (PRN) AntibodiesAt Month 3

The vaccine response was defined as it follows:

* for PT and FHA, an antibody concentration higher than or equal to (≥) 20 EL.U/mL at post-vaccination;

* for PRN, at least a 4-fold increase in antibody concentration from pre-vaccination to post-vaccination time points.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Subjects With Anti-PRP Antibody Concentrations ≥ 1.0 µg/mLAt Month 3

The number of subjects with anti-PRP antibody concentrations higher than or equal to (≥) 1.0 µg/mL post primary vaccination is reported.

Concentrations for Anti-D and Anti-T AntibodiesAt Month 0 and Month 3

Anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in International units per milliliter (IU/mL).

Concentrations for Anti-PRP AntibodiesAt Month 0 and Month 3

Anti-PRP antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in microgram/milliliter (µg/mL).

Concentrations for Anti-PT, Anti-FHA and Anti-PRN AntibodiesAt Month 3

Anti-PT, anti-FHA and anti-PRN antibody concentrations are presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units per milliliter (EL.U/mL).

Number of Subjects With Any and Grade 3 Solicited Local SymptomsDuring the 4-day (Day 0-3) follow-up period after each vaccine dose and across doses

Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling spreading beyond 30 millimeters (mm) of injection site.

Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General SymptomsDuring the 4-day (Day 0-3) follow-up period after each vaccine dose and across doses

Assessed solicited general symptoms were drowsiness, fever \[defined as axillary temperature equal to or above (≥) 37.1 degrees Celsius (°C)\], irritability and loss of appetite. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 symptom = symptom that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = fever above (\>) 39.0 °C. Related = symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)During the 31-day (Day 0-30) follow-up period after each vaccination

An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)From receipt of first dose of study vaccine (Day 0) to study end (Month 3)

SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life-threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.
