Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: • To assess pertussis specific IgG antibody levels in serum to determine the effects of a second aP booster vaccination and determine whether there is a difference in IgG levels between wP and aP primed children at 8-9 years of age; • To assess memory B- and T-cell responses against the various B. pertussis proteins and determine whether there is a difference between wP and aP primed children at 9 years of age.;Secondary Objective: • To assess pertussis specific IgG-subclasses and -avidity; • To measure serum specific IgG-antibodies, -subclasses and -avidity and memory B- and T-cell responses against the other vaccine components (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Polio, Mumps, Measles and Rubella); • To measure serum specific IgG-antibodies, -subclasses and -avidity against other vaccine components from the NIP; • To measure IgA- and IgE- antibodies in serum against the proteins of B. pertussis and other vaccine components from the NIP.;Primary end point(s): Overview of current pertussis specific IgG -levels and -avidity and numbers of B- and T-cells before and after vaccination to determine vaccine responses ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After second blood sample and after third and optional fourth blood sample | — |
