(Acute disease is defined as the presence of a mild, moderate or severe illness with or without fever.

| Main Objective: To determine the percentage reduction in febrile reactions (rectal temperature > or = 38.0°C) when prophylactic antipyretic treatment is administered compared to no prophylactic antipyretic treatment, after primary vaccination with GSK Biologicals’ 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and routine DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib (Infanrix hexa) vaccination in children at 3, 4 and 5 months of age and oral live attenuated HRV (Rotarix) vaccination in children at 3 and 4 months of age.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate safety and reactogenicity after each dose of GSK Biologicals’ 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine when concomitantly administered, with or without prophylactic antipyretic treatment, at 3, 4 and 5 months of age and GSK Biologicals’ oral live attenuated HRV vaccine at 3 and 4 months of age. To evaluate one month post-dose three the immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals’ 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and the co-administered DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine. To assess the immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals’ oral live attenuated HRV vaccine in terms of serum anti-rotavirus IgA antibody concentrations, 2 months after the second oral live attenuated HRV vaccine dose when given concomitantly with GSK Biologicals’ 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate and DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccines. Additional secondary objective included (refer protocol amendment 3) ;Primary end point(s): Occurrence of core fever > or = 38°C (rectal temperature) within 4 days (days 0 to 3) after the administration of at least one vaccination dose. | — |
