Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The proportion of subjects with a positive immune response to OPV versus proportion of subjects with a positive immune response to OPV plus IPVTimepoint: Analysis for plasma neutralizing antibodies to poliovirus will be conducted on plasma samples taken from weeks 6, 18, 40, and once between weeks 53-54. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1.Determine whether breast milk antibodies interfere with immune responses to polio and rotavirus vaccines. 2.Determine whether maternal plasma antibodies interfere with immune responses to poliovirus vaccines. 3. Determine whether malnutrition is associated with decreased responses to oral vaccination. 4. Determine whether the following additional biomarkers and immune markers correlate with immune response to oral polio or rotavirus vaccination: through ELISPOT, and plasma IgG/IgA. Timepoint: at 6,18, 40 and 54 weeks | — |
