Participant Flow

11/2005-09/07: 70 outpatients (2-5-yo)with \>3 asthma episodes during 12 months. Exclusion: pneumococcal immunization,severe/unstable asthma, systemic steroids, preterm birth (\<37 weeks of gestation), low birthweight (\<2500 g), major congenital abnormalities, and known intolerance towards ingredients of the pneumococcal vaccines.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: we performed a power calculation in advance. To demonstrate a difference wit p\<0.05, we would require 30 subjects per arm each. Thus and to allow potential drop-outs, we included 35 subjects per arm.

we performed pneumococcal serotype specific ELISA according to WHO's criteria for protective threshold values (\>0.35 µg/ml).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

we evaluated the safety and tolerability of sequential pneumococcal immunization as to local and systemic adverse events.
