Study of Mixed Vaccination Schedules With a 21-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine and a 20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Healthy Infants From Approximately 2 Months of Age
Recruiting
This study is a Phase 3, randomized, modified double-blind study which aims to measure whether the investigational pneumococcal conjugate vaccine PCV21 is safe and can help the body to develop germ-fighting agents called "antibodies" (immunogenicity) when it is given after 1 dose, 2 doses, or 3 doses of a licensed 20-valent pneumococcal vaccine compared to when 20-valent pneumococcal vaccine is given as a complete series in infants aged from approximately 2 months (42 to 89 days). The study dur... Read More
