• Administration of long-acting immune-modifying drugs at any time during the study period

• Planned administration/administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol in the period starting 30 days before the first dose and ending 30 days after the last dose of vaccine administration, with the exception of hepatitis B and other vaccines given as part of the national immunisation schedule and as part of routine vaccination practice, that are allowed at any time during the study period. Seasonal or pandemic influenza vaccine can be given at any time during the study, and according to the Summary of Product Characteristics and national recommendations.

• Previous vaccination against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis and Hib diseases.

• History of diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis and Hib diseases.

• Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination.

• Family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.

• History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine.

• Major congenital defects.

• Serious chronic illness.

• History of any neurological disorders or seizures.

• Acute disease and/or fever at the time of enrolment.

  • Fever is defined as temperature ≥37.5°C for oral, axillary or tympanic route, or ≥38.0°C for rectal route.
