    Measured: 6-12 months

  2. Proportion of subjects with detection of S. pneumoniae by culture, BinaxNOW, and UAD assay will be summarized by method.

    Measured: 6-12 months

  3. Serotype distribution of S. pneumoniae cases by site and across all sites.

    Measured: 6-12 months

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of subjects who have vaccine-type (VT), ie, PCV13, S. pneumoniae. (time frame: 6-12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
