Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Polio is a highly infectious disease caused by a virus. It invades the nervous system, and can cause total paralysis in a matter of hours. The virus enters the body through the mouth and multiplies in the intestine. Initial symptoms are fever, fatigue, headache, vomiting, stiffness in the neck and pain in the limbs. One in 200 infections leads to irreversible paralysis (usually in the legs). Among those paralysed, 5% to 10% die when their breathing muscles become immobilized. There is no cure for polio, it can only be prevented. Polio vaccine, given multiple times, can protect a child for life.

Compare in newborns the immunogenicity and safety of the vaccine OPV produced by Birmex compared with the vaccine OPV produced by Sanofi Pasteur, both produced in Vero cells.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a randomized clinical trial, which includes 320 newborns of both sexes and residents of the state of México, 160 newborns receive the vaccine OPV Birmex and 160 newborns receive the vaccine OPV Sanofi Pasteur
