Brief summary

This protocol posting deals with objectives and outcome measures of the primary phase at one month post-Dose 2. This Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) will collect safety data on the use of human rotavirus vaccine in at least 3000 evaluable infants in Korea. This study involves male or female infants from the age of 6 weeks at the time of the first vaccination. The vaccination course must be completed by the age of 24 weeks.

Detailed description

The protocol posting has been amended to reflect the two new vaccine presentations that have been launched in Korea. The current PMS will thus collect safety information from subjects who have received either Rotarix or Rotarix liquid formulation (oral suspension or prefilled syringe) in the course of their routine clinical practice according to the prescribing information in Korea.
