Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Aged 6 weeks to 14 weeks (42-98 days of age) at time of enrollment,

2. Previous vaccination with Hib conjugate, DTaP or IPV vaccines,
3. Contraindication to immunization with HepB, Hib conjugate, DTaP or IPV vaccines,
4. Significant neurological disorder or history of seizure including febrile seizure, or significant stable or evolving disorders such as cerebral palsy, encephalopathy, hydrocephalus or other significant disorders. Does not include resolving syndromes due to birth trauma such as Erb palsy,
5. Bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding time that would contraindicate intramuscular injection,
6. History of culture-proven invasive disease caused by S. pneumoniae,
7. Previous anaphylactic reaction to any vaccine or vaccine components,
8. Major known congenital malformation or serious chronic disorders,
