Pneumonia vaccine study for healthy infants
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests a new pneumonia vaccine (PCV13) in healthy infants to see if it works as well as a current vaccine. It compares the immune response and safety of the two vaccines.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study checks how well a pneumococcal vaccine (which protects against a common bacterial infection) continues to work in children who received it as infants about 4 or more years ago. Researchers will take blood samples to measure immune protection.
This study tests a new vaccine that protects against 21 types of bacteria that cause pneumonia and other infections. It is for healthy infants around 2 months old to see if it works as well as the current vaccine.
This study tests an investigational vaccine that may protect infants against infections caused by a bacteria called Streptococcus pneumoniae, which can cause pneumonia and other serious illnesses. The vaccine is given to healthy babies around 2 months old, and the study will see how well it works and how safe it is.
This study tests a pneumococcal vaccine (PCV13) in healthy 2-month-old babies to see if it is safe and helps protect against pneumococcal infections. Your baby would receive the vaccine and be monitored for any side effects.
This trial tests a 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine to prevent pneumonia and serious infections caused by pneumococcus bacteria. It may be a good option if your child has never had a pneumococcal vaccine before.
This study tests a new vaccine to protect infants from pneumococcal disease (a serious bacterial infection). Researchers want to see how well the vaccine works and how safe it is in healthy babies aged 2–6 months.
