ABSTRACT
An open, randomized, clinical trial was conducted in order to assess the reactogenicity and immunogenicity of DTPw-HBV and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) vaccines when given either as a mixed administration or as separate concomitant injections using the WHO schedule at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age, following a dose of HBV at birth. There were no clinically relevant differences in the immune response to any component between the mixed and separate administrations. In fact the anti-tetanus GMTs were significantly higher (p=0.002) in mixed administration (3.9 IU/ml) compared with the separate administration (1.9 IU/ml). However although all subjects achieved anti-PRP titers > or = 0.15 microg/ml, higher anti-PRP GMTs were seen in the group receiving the separate administration. Importantly, the addition of Hib did not adversely alter the reactogenicity profile of DTPw-HBV. This report which demonstrates that this novel combination can be used in WHO recommended schedule.
