- Brief Summary
This is a study to evaluate the immune response and safety of GSK Biologicals 2-dose inactivated hepatitis A vaccine when administered with a diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis combination (DTaP) vaccine and a Haemophilus influenza type B (Hib) vaccine in children 15 months of age. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Seropositive Subjects for Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Antibodies Following the Second Dose of Havrix 31 days following the second dose of Havrix™ Subjects are defined as being anti-HAV seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is ≥ 15 milli-International Units per milliliter (mIU/mL).
Number of Anti-diphtheria, Anti-tetanus and Anti-polyribosylribitol Phosphate (PRP) Seroprotected Subjects 31 days following the administration of Infanrix™ and ActHIB Subjects are defined as being anti-diphtheria, anti-tetanus and anti-PRP seroprotected if their anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus antibody concentration is ≥ 0.1 International Units per milliliter (IU/mL) and if their anti-PRP antibody concentration is ≥ 1 microgram per milliliter (μg/mL), respectively.
Number of Vaccine Responders for Anti-pertussis Toxoid (PT), Anti-filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA) and Anti-pertactin (PRN) 31 days following the administration of Infanrix™ and ActHIB Subjects are considered as being vaccine responders if they were initially seronegative and become seropositive (≥ 5 Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay Units per Milliliter (EL.U/mL)), or were initially seropositive and have a 2-fold increase above pre-study concentrations.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Anti-diphtheria and Anti-tetanus Antibody Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMC) 31 days following the administration of Infanrix™ and ActHIB GMCs are expressed as International Units per milliliter (IU/mL).

Number of Subjects Seropositive for Anti-pertussis Toxoid (PT), Anti-filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA), Anti-pertactin (PRN) and Anti-polyribosylribitol Phosphate (PRP) 31 days following the administration of Infanrix™ and ActHIB Seropositivity is defined as antibody concentrations ≥ 5 Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay Units per Milliliter (EL.U/mL) for anti-PT, anti-FHA and anti-PRN antibodies and as antibody concentrations ≥ 0.15 microgram/milliliter (µg/mL) for anti-PRP antibodies.
Number of Seropositive Subjects for Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Antibodies Following the First Dose of Havrix 31 days following the first dose of Havrix™ Subjects are defined as being anti-HAV seropositive if their anti-HAV antibody concentration is ≥ 15 milli-International Units per milliliter (mIU/mL).
Number of Subjects With Vaccine Response to Havrix™. 31 days following the second dose Vaccine response to Havrix is defined as post-vaccination anti-HAV antibody concentrations ≥ 15 mIU/mL in initially seronegative subjects or a ≥ 2-fold increase above the pre-vaccination anti-HAV antibody concentration in initially seropositive subjects.
Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), New Chronic Illnesses and Medically Significant Events Active Phase and the 6-months Extended Safety Follow-up (ESFU) Phase. Since the related information about medically significant events was not specifically collected and new chronic illnesses were only collected in the extended safety follow-up phase, all unsolicited adverse events (AEs) throughout the study are reported in the table without identifying which event was a medically significant or new chronic illness.
Anti-hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Antibody Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMC) Following the First Dose of Havrix 31 days following the first dose of Havrix™ Anti-hepatitis A (HAV) antibody geometric mean concentrations (GMC) are expressed as milli-International Units per milliliter (mIU/mL).
Anti-hepatitis Virus A (HAV) Antibody Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMC) Following the Second Dose of Havrix 31 days following the second dose of Havrix™ Anti-hepatitis A (HAV) antibody geometric mean concentrations (GMC) are expressed as milli-International Units per milliliter (mIU/mL).
Number of Subjects Reporting Solicited General Adverse Events (AEs) 4-day period following each dose of study vaccine(s) Solicited general AEs assessed include drowsiness, axillary fever ≥ 37.5°C, irritability and loss of appetite. Data across doses are presented in the table.
Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) 31-day period following each dose of study vaccine(s) An Adverse Event is 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.
