Inclusion criteria

  1. Healthy infants aged 6 weeks (42-72 days) at time of enrolment
  2. Available for the entire study period

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria

  1. Previous vaccination with pneumococcal, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis or Hib vaccines
  2. A previous anaphylactic reaction to any vaccine or vaccine-related component
  3. to vaccination with pneumococcal, Hib, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, or measles vaccines
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
