Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Diphtheria (D) and Tetanus (T) Antigens
A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-D and anti-T antibody concentrations greater than or equal to (≥) 0.1 international units per milliliter (IU/mL).
Time frame: One month after the third vaccine dose (Month 3 or Month 4)
Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Polyribosyl-ribitol-phosphate (PRP) Antigen
A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-PRP antibody concentrations ≥ 0.15 micrograms per milliliter (μg/mL).
Time frame: One month after the third vaccine dose (Month 3 or Month 4)
Number of Seroprotected Subjects Against Poliovirus Types 1, 2 and 3 Antigens
A seroprotected subject was defined as a subject with anti-poliovirus (anti-polio) types 1, 2 and 3 antibody titres ≥ the value of 8.
Time frame: One month after the third vaccine dose (Month 3 or Month 4)
Number of Subjects With a Vaccine Response to Pertussis Toxoid (PT), Filamentous Haemagglutinin (FHA) and Pertactin (PRN) Antigens
Vaccine response was defined as: For PT and FHA response, antibody concentration ≥ 20 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units per milliliter (EL.U/mL) at post-vaccination. For PRN response: for initially seronegative subjects \[antibody concentration lower than (\<) 5 EL.U/mL\], post-vaccination antibody concentration ≥ 20 EL.U/mL; for initially seropositive subjects (antibody concentration ≥ 5 EL.U/mL), at least a 4-fold increase in antibody concentration from pre to post-vaccination.
Time frame: One month after the third vaccine dose (Month 3 or Month 4)
Anti-D and Anti-T Antibody Concentrations
Antibody concentrations were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in IU/mL.
This platform is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Time frame: Before the first dose (Month 0) and one month after the third dose of vaccination (Month 3 or Month 4)
Anti-PRP Antibody Concentrations
Antibody concentrations were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in µg/mL.
Time frame: Before the first dose (Month 0) and one month after the third dose of study vaccine (Month 3 or Month 4)
Anti-polio Types 1, 2 and 3 Antibody Titers
Antibody titers were presented as geometric mean titers (GMTs).
Time frame: Before the first dose (Month 0) and one month after the third dose of study vaccine (Month 3 or Month 4)
Anti-PT, Anti-FHA and Anti-PRN Antibody Concentrations
Antibody concentrations were presented as geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), expressed in EL.U/mL.
Time frame: Before (Month 0) and one month after the third dose of study vaccine (Month 3 or Month 4)
Number of Subjects With Any Solicited Local Symptoms
Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade.
Time frame: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period after each vaccine dose and across doses
Number of Subjects With Any Solicited General Symptoms
Assessed solicited general symptoms were drowsiness, irritability, loss of appetite and fever \[defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.0 degrees Celsius (°C)\]. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade or relationship to study vaccination.
Time frame: During the 4-day (Days 0-3) post-vaccination period after each vaccine dose and across doses
Number of Subjects With Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)
An unsolicited AE covers 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 and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.
Time frame: During the 31-day (Days 0-30) post-vaccination period after any dose
Number of Subjects With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.
Time frame: During the entire study period (from Month 0 to Month 4/5)
