Study Evaluating Safety and Immunogenicity of 13-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine With Influenza Vaccine in Adults
- Conditions
- Pneumococcal Infections
- Interventions
- Biological: 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccineBiological: 13vPnC + TIV
- Registration Number
- NCT00492557
- Lead Sponsor
- Pfizer
- Brief Summary
The 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (13vPnC) is being developed for adults to prevent pneumococcal diseases such as meningitis (inflammation of the brain lining), septicemia (blood poisoning), and pneumonia (inflammation of the lungs). As trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) is frequently given to adults, it is important to show that both vaccines can safely be given together without affecting the immune response (body's ability to protect against disease).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method TIV Comparisons: Percentage of Participants Achieving at Least a 4-fold Increase in the Titer of the Standard Hemagglutination Inhibition Assay (HAI) Baseline and 1 month after TIV vaccination Percentage of participants achieving at least a 4-fold increase in the titer of the standard HAI for each influenza virus subtype (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B) were compared.
13vPnC Comparisons: Serotype-specific Pneumococcal Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) 1 month after 13vPnC vaccination IgG GMC as measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and expressed in micrograms per mL (mcg/mL) for serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F and 23F.
