Brief summary
The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' pneumococcal conjugate vaccine GSK1024850A when administered either as a booster dose or as a two dose catch-up vaccination in the second year of life to the Nigerian subjects previously enrolled in the primary vaccination study NCT00678301. This protocol posting deals with objectives & outcome measures of the booster phase. The objectives & outcome measures of the primary phase are presented in a separate protocol posting (NCT number = NCT00678301).

Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAEs).
SAEs assessed include medical occurrences that results in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity or are a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subjects.
Time frame: During the entire study period, from the vaccination visit at Day 0 up to the end of the follow-up visit at Month 1 for the Synflorix/Infanrix primed Group and up to Month 3 for the Synflorix/Infanrix unprimed Group.
Population: The Total Vaccinated cohort included all vaccinated subjects.

| Synflorix/Infanrix Primed Group | Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAEs). | 1 Participants |
| Synflorix/Infanrix Unprimed Group | Number of Subjects Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAEs). | 0 Participants |
Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited AEs.
Unsolicited AEs = Any AE (i.e. any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product) reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study. Also any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms was reported as an unsolicited adverse event.
Time frame: Within 31 days (Days 0-30) after vaccination
Population: The Total Vaccinated cohort included all vaccinated subjects.

Opsonophagocytic Activity Against Cross-reactive Pneumococcal Serotypes.
Cross-reactive pneumococcal serotypes assessed were serotypes 6A and 19A. Streptococcus pneumoniae opsonophagocytic activity was measured by a killing-assay using a HL 60 cell line. The results were presented as the dilution of serum (opsonic titre) able to sustain 50% killing of live pneumococci under the assay conditions. The cut-off of the assay is an opsonic titre of 8.
Time frame: One month after the booster immunisation for the Synflorix/Infanrix primed Group and one month after Dose 2 in the Synflorix/Infanrix unprimed Group
Population: The According-To-Protocol cohort for immunogenicity included all evaluable subjects for whom immunogenicity data were available. This included subjects for whom assay results were available for antibodies against at least one pneumococcal vaccine serotype or protein D for the blood sample taken one month after vaccination.

Opsonophagocytic Activity Against Vaccine Pneumococcal Serotypes.
Vaccine pneumococcal serotypes assessed were serotypes 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F. Streptococcus pneumoniae opsonophagocytic activity was measured by a killing-assay using a HL 60 cell line.
