An alternative booster vaccine against meningitis and ear infections.

Phase 1
Conditions
The study will include healthy children who have already been vaccinated with 2 doses of Prevenar 13 according to the UK routine immunisation schedule at 2 and 4 months of age. Both vaccines used in the study (Prevenar 13 and Synflorix) are licensed for protection against pneumococcal disease. We do not intend to extend the indication of these vaccines further but intend to confirm non-inferiority of a combinatory vaccine schedule compared to the standard schedule with respect to immunogenicity.
