    Measured: One month after the Toddler Dose (at 13 months of age)

  3. Percentage of Participants Achieving Antibody Titer ≥1:8 After the Toddler Dose in 13vPnC/13vPnC and 7vPnC/13vPnC Groups

    Percentage of participants achieving functional antibody titer ≥1:8 as measured by opsonophagocytic activity assay (OPA) along with the corresponding 95% CI for the 6 additional pneumococcal serotypes specific to 13vPnC (serotypes 1, 3, 5, 6A, 7F, and 19A) are presented.

    Measured: One month after the toddler dose (at 13 months of age)

  4. Geometric Mean Titer (GMT) in 13vPnC/13vPnC and 7vPnC/13vPnC Groups After the Toddler Dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and Pentavac in people with Vaccines, Pneumococcal, run by Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 45 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 45 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Aug 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants Achieving Predefined Antibody Levels for Diphtheria, Tetanus, Hemophilus Influenza Type b (Hib), Poliomyelitis (Type 1, 2, 3), Pertussis Toxin (PT) and Filamentous Hemagglutinin (FHA) in 13vPnC Group Relative to 7vPnC Group (time frame: One Month After the 3-Dose Infant Series (at 5 months of age) and the Toddler Dose (at 13 months of age)). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Aug 2012.
