Brief Summary

Primary Objectives :

* To describe the long-term humoral immune responses to pertussis, diphtheria, and tetanus after homologous and heterologous pertussis vaccine priming regimens

* To determine the effects of the priming regimen on humoral responses to booster vaccination with Tdap-IPV vaccine

* To describe the long-term cell-mediated immune responses to pertussis after homologous and heterologous pertussis vaccine priming regimens

* To determine the effects of the priming regimen on cell-mediated immune response to booster vaccination with Tdap-IPV vaccine

Secondary Objective:

To describe the safety profile of Tdap-IPV vaccine in each group

Detailed Description

Study duration per participant will be approximately 30 days including: 1 day of screening and vaccination, a phone call and a safety follow-up/end of study visit, at Day 8 and Day 30 after vaccine administration, respectively.

  • Received primary pertussis vaccination and the toddler booster in the RSA

  • For Groups 6 and 7: be on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) therapy and have known CD4 cell counts > 200 cells/µL
Exclusion Criteria
  • Participation in the 4 weeks preceding the vaccination or planned participation during the present trial period in another clinical trial investigating a vaccine, drug, medical device, or medical procedure
  • Receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding the trial vaccination or planned receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks following the trial vaccination except for influenza
  • Receipt of additional pertussis vaccination doses inconsistent with pertussis vaccination schedule in the RSA
  • Previous confirmed diagnosis of pertussis disease
  • Receipt of immune globulins, blood or blood-derived products in the past 3 months
  • Known systemic hypersensitivity to any of the vaccine components, or history of a life-threatening reaction to the vaccine used in the trial or to a vaccine containing any of the same substances
  • For Groups 1 to 5: known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency; or receipt of immunosuppressive therapy, such as anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy, within the preceding 6 months; or long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy (prednisone or equivalent for more than 2 consecutive weeks within the past 3 months)
  • Known thrombocytopenia, as reported by the parent/ legal guardian or suspected thrombocytopenia contraindicating intramuscular vaccination in the Investigator's opinion
  • Bleeding disorder, or receipt of anticoagulants in the 3 weeks preceding inclusion, contraindicating intramuscular vaccination
  • Participants with progressive neurological disorder, uncontrolled epilepsy, or progressive encephalopathy except if a treatment regimen has been established and the condition has stabilized
  • Encephalopathy within 7 days of a previous dose of pertussis-containing vaccine
  • Had contraindication to receipt of Adacel Quadra vaccine at the time of vaccination as defined in the Adacel Quadra vaccine Republic of South Africa (RSA) label
  • Moderate or severe acute illness/infection (according to Investigator judgment) on the day of vaccination or febrile illness (temperature ≥ 38.0°C [≥ 100.4°F]). A prospective participants should not be included in the study until the condition has resolved or the febrile event has subsided (temporary contraindication)
  • Receipt of oral or injectable antibiotic therapy within 72 hours prior to the first blood draw Note: Potential participants receiving standard HIV treatments such as antiretrovirals and/or antibiotic prophylaxis can be enrolled in the study. Their routine medications should be documented in the CRB.
  • Identified as a natural or adopted child of the Investigator or employee with direct involvement in the proposed study
