Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoid (DT) will be administered intramuscularly as a 1/3 dilution (0.33 flocculation units). The participants will be rechallenged with DT 6 months after Day 29 if failed to show \>=1.5 fold increase in lymphocyte proliferative response but have a humoral response.
The fifth dose (1 milligram per kilogram \[mg/kg\]) of daclizumab will be administered in this study to participants who already received four doses (one dose at 1 mg/kg within 24 hours post-transplant and then every other week for 3 doses).
KLH will be administered intradermally with a dose of 250 mcg for participants aged 2 to less than 12 years, and 500 mcg for participants aged 12 to 19 years. The participants will be rechallenged with KLH 6 months after Day 29 if failed to show specified increase in lymphocyte proliferative response or humoral response.

Positive antibody response was defined as at least a 2-fold increase in antibody concentration on either Day 43 or Day 57 compared with baseline where baseline was assigned a value of 1 if it was below the limit of quantification. Positive cellular response was defined as an increase in the 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) percent total net of at least 1.5-fold compared with baseline, where baseline was assigned a value of 0.5 if \<=0, on at least one time point on Days 22, 29, 43 or 57.

Number of KLH Cellular Nonresponders Who Were Rechallenged and Mounted a Cellular Response to KLH Immunization
Nonresponders (participants who failed to mount cellular responses to KLH) were rechallenged with KLH 6 months after Day 29 (Day 196). For nonresponders, positive cellular response to KLH was defined as an increase in the 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) percent total net of at least 1.5-fold compared with baseline, where baseline was assigned a value of 0.5 if \<=0, on at least one time point up to Day 252. All cellular responses were assessed by BrdU proliferation assay.
Time frame: Up to Day 252
Number of Tetanus Cellular Nonresponders Who Were Rechallenged and Mounted a Cellular Tetanus Response
Nonresponders (participants who mount humoral responses but no cellular responses to tetanus vaccination) were rechallenged with TT 6 months after Day 29 (Day 196). For nonresponders, positive cellular response to TT was defined as an increase in the BrdU percent total net of at least 1.5-fold compared with baseline, where baseline was assigned a value of 0.5 if \<=0, at any time point up to Day 252. All cellular responses were assessed by BrdU proliferation assay.
Time frame: up to Day 252
Geometric Mean Antibody Concentrations for KLH (IgM and IgG) and TT (IgG)
