Résumé
Date de début de l'étude : 1 septembre 1992
Date à laquelle le premier participant a commencé l'étude.PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind study. Patients are stratified by participating institution and randomly assigned to 1 of 3 vaccines and a placebo vaccine in a 3:3:3:1 ratio. One group receives diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DPT) vaccine containing filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), Pt-9K/129G, and 69 kDA outer membrane protein (OMP). A second group receives DPT containing FHA and OMP. The third group receives DPT containing whole-cell pertussis. The control group receives diphtheria-tetanus (DT) vaccine. All vaccines are administered as an intramuscular or deep subcutaneous injection at 6-12, 13-20, and 21-28 weeks of age. The first vaccine is given at week 12 if hepatitis B or other immune globulin was given at birth. All patients receive a DT booster at 11 months, and are followed every 4 weeks for approximately 20 months.
