Brief summary

This study is designed to assess the immunogenicity and safety of tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis vaccine (ADACEL®, Tdap vaccine) as a booster dose in adolescents in Japan. Primary Objective: * To assess the immunogenicity of Tdap (SP306) when administered as a single dose in Japanese adolescents Secondary Objective: * To assess the safety of Tdap vaccine when administered as a single dose in Japanese adolescents.

Detailed description

All participants will receive a single booster dose of Tdap vaccine (ADACEL®) on Day 0 and undergo immunogenicity assessment from blood samples provided prior to, and 28 days post-vaccination. Tolerability and safety will be monitored up to 28 days post-vaccination.

Inclusion criteria

* Aged 11 or 12 years on the day of inclusion * Informed consent form and assent form signed and dated by the parent(s) / legal representative and the subject respectively * Completed childhood vaccination against diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus (i.e, received 4 doses of Japanese-produced tetanus toxoid, diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis vaccine absorbed \[DTaP vaccine\]), confirmed by checking immunization records and have not yet undergone additional adsorbed Diphtheria and Tetanus toxoid (DT) vaccination * Able to attend all scheduled visits and to comply with all trial procedures * For female subjects, either pre-menarchal, or post-menarchal with a negative urine pregnancy test.

Exclusion criteria
