NCT00953056

Brief Summary

This study will assess the safety and tolerability of RotaTeq™ (V260) in the healthy Chinese populations. Approximately 144 participants will be enrolled and equally stratified into three age cohorts, Cohort I ages 19-47 years, Cohort II ages 2-6 years, and Cohort III ages 6-12 weeks. Randomization ratio is 1:1 in each cohort. The study will be conducted sequentially, participants in Cohort I then Cohort II receiving 1 dose of, and then participants in Cohort III receiving 3 doses of RotaTeq™/placebo. The primary investigator and the Ethics Review Committee will review blinded safety data and make decision based on their best clinical judgment to move study forward between cohorts. Duration for the entire study will be approximately 6-9 months.
