Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity in terms of antibody response and the safety/reactogenicity in terms of solicited and unsolicited symptoms and serious adverse events following primary vaccination of Indian infants with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine GSK1024850A co-administered with a diphtheria, tetanus, whole cell pertussis (DTPw)-combined vaccine during the first 4 months of life. The study will be conducted in India.

Number of Subjects With Opsonophagocytic Activity Against Pneumococcal Serotypes
Vaccine pneumococcal serotypes included 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F. Cross-reactive pneumococcal serotypes included 6A and 19A. Opsonophagocytic activity was defined as the dilution of serum (opsonic titer) able to sustain 50% killing of live pneumococci under the assay conditions. The cut-off of the assay was an opsonic titer equal to or greater than 8.
Time frame: One month after primary immunization (month 3)
Population: Analysis was performed on the According-to-Protocol cohort for immunogenicity, which included all evaluable subjects with available immunogenicity data.
