Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Previous vaccination with licensed or investigational pneumococcal vaccine. 2. Previous vaccination with Hib conjugate, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, or meningococcal vaccine. 3. A previous anaphylactic reaction to any vaccine or vaccine-related component. 4. Contraindication to vaccination with Hib conjugate, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, pneumococcal conjugate, or meningococcal conjugate vaccine. 5. Bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding time that would contraindicate intramuscular injection. 6. Known or suspected immune deficiency or suppression. 7.

| Primary end point(s): See primary objectives; Main Objective: - To demonstrate that the immune response induced by NeisVac-C or Pediacel given with 13vPnC is noninferior to the immune response induced by NeisVac-C or Pediacel given with 7vPnC when measured 1 month after the infant series. The immune response to the meningococcal C antigen will be assessed using a serum bactericidal assay (SBA). The immune responses to the following antigens in Pediacel will be assessed: acellular pertussis antigens (pertussis toxoid [PT], filamentous haemagglutinin [FHA], pertactin [PRN] and fimbrial agglutinogens ) and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Safety objective: - To evaluate the acceptability of the safety profile of 13vPnC as measured by the incidence rates of local injection site reactions, systemic events, and adverse events (AEs). 13vPnC immunogenicity objectives: - To assess the immune response to 13vPnC 1 month after a 2-dose infant series and before and 1 month after the toddler dose as measured by serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses. ; Secondary Objective: - To assess the immune responses induced by Menitorix given with 13vPnC relative to the immune responses induced by Menitorix given with 7vPnC when measured 1 month after the toddler dose (Hib and meningococcal C). · - To assess the immune responses induced by NeisVac-C given with 13vPnC to the immune responses induced by NeisVac-C given with 7vPnC when measured before the toddler dose (meningococcal C).· - To assess the immune response induced by Pediacel given with 13vPnC to the immune response induced by Pediacel given with 7vPnC at alternative cutoff levels when measured 1 month after the infant series (Hib).· - To assess the immune responses induced by Menitorix given with 13vPnC to the immune responses induced by Menitorix given with 7vPnC at alte | — |
