Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Healthy pneumococcal conjugate vaccine-naïve (PCV-naive) infants as established by medical history and clinical assessment before entering into the study. PCV-naïve infants are those who have not been previously vaccinated with any licensed or investigational pneumococcal vaccine (only for Safety arm). 2. Healthy pneumococcal conjugate vaccine-naïve (PCV-naive), Pentavalent vaccine (DTwP-rHepB-Hib) naïve, IPV vaccine naïve and live attenuated Rotavirus vaccine naïve infants as established by medical history and clinical assessment before entering into the study. PCV/Pentavalent/IPV/Rotavirus vaccine-naïve infants are those who have not been previously vaccinated with any licensed or investigational PCV/Pentavalent/IPV/Rotavirus vaccines (only for immunogenicity arm). 3. Infants between 6-8 weeks of age (42-56 days, both days inclusive) of either gender, at the time of first dose of vaccination. 4. Healthy Infants with body weight = 3300 gms at the time of screening. 5. Subjects’ parent(s)/ LAR(s) who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply, with the requirements of the protocol (e.g. completion of the diary cards, return for follow-up visits, with access to a consistent means of telephone contact, either residential landline or mobile). 6. Subject’s parent(s)/LAR(s) willing to provide written or thumb printed informed consent (including audio visual recording of consent process) prior to performing any study specific procedure. 7. Infants with a minimal vaccination status for their age at the time of enrolment (“minimal ? defined as single dose of only BCG, Hepatitis B &/or Polio vaccine prior to enrolment).

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Child in care 2.Evidence of previous Streptococcus pneumoniae infection or pneumococcal vaccination. 3.Evidence of previous or intercurrent or known exposure to diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, poliomyelitis, H. influenzae type b and rotavirus diseases (immunogenicity arm only) 4. Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug or vaccine) during the period starting 30 days before the administration of study vaccine (Day -29 to Day 0), or planned use during the study period other than the study vaccine. 5. Any medical condition that in the judgment of the investigator would make intramuscular injection unsafe (eg., coagulation abnormalities). 6. Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the subject has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational vaccine/product (pharmaceutical product or device). 7. History of allergic disease or history of a serious reaction to any prior vaccination or known hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study vaccines. 8. History of any neurological disorders, meningitis or seizures. 9. Infant who has had a sibling die of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) or die suddenly and without apparent other cause or preceding illness in the first year of life. 10. Infant is a direct descendant (child or grand-child) of any person employed by the Sponsor, the Contract Research Organization (CRO) or the Study Site (including the PI and study site personnel). 11. Acute disease and/or fever at the time of vaccination. o Fever is defined as the endogenous elevation of at least one measured body temperature of = 38 ?C (= 100.4?F). 12. Acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as determined by physical examination and Principal investigator judgement.
