Evaluation of the immune response and safety of a booster dose of Pfizer’s 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in children primed with 3 doses of either GSK’s 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine or Pfizer’s 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in the Czech Republic.

• Conditions: To induce appropriate protection against pneumococcal disease. To assess non-inferiority of OPA response for serotype 19A after booster dose of PCV13 administered between 12-15 months of age in subjects primed with 10Pn-PD-DiT vs those primed with PCV13.; Therapeutic area: Diseases [C] - Bacterial Infections and Mycoses [C01]

Exclusion Criteria

The following criteria should be checked at the time of study entry for all subjects. If ANY exclusion criterion applies, the subject must not be included in the study:

•Child in care (A child who has been placed under the control or protection of an agency, organisation, institution or entity by the courts, the government or a government body, acting in accordance with powers conferred on them by law or regulation.)
•Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug or vaccine) other than the study vaccine within 30 days preceding the dose of study vaccine, or planned use during the study period.
•Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days in total) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs since birth. For corticosteroids, this will mean prednisone = 0.5 mg/kg/day, or equivalent. Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
•Planned administration/administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol during the study period starting from 30 days before the dose and ending 30 days after the dose of vaccine(s), with the exception of licensed influenza vaccines and licensed DTP vaccines.
The licensed influenza vaccines are always allowed, even if concomitantly administered with the study vaccines.
Administration of any of the vaccines mentioned above has to be documented in the Concomitant vaccination” of the CRF (Case Record Form).
•Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the subject has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational product (pharmaceutical product or device).
•Previous booster vaccination against S. pneumoniae.
•Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).
•Family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.
•History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine(s).
•Major congenital defects or serious chronic illness.
•History of any neurological disorders or seizures.
•Acute disease and/or fever at the time of enrolment. Subjects with temperature bellow 37.5°C on oral, axillary or tympanic setting, or bellow 38.0°C on rectal setting and subjects with mild disease without fever e.g mild diarrhea or mild URTI may be enrolled at the discreation of the investigator.
•Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the 3 months preceding vaccination or planned administration during study period.
•Any medical condition which might interfere with the assessment of the study objectives in the opinion of the investigator.
•Anaphylaxis following previous administration of a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
