1.Primary Outcome
Title Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions Within 7 Days After Dose 1
Hide Description Local reactions were recorded using an electronic diary. Local reactions included redness, swelling and pain at the injection site. Redness and swelling were graded as mild (0.5 to 2.0 cm), moderate (>2.0 to 7.0 cm) and severe (>7.0 cm). Pain at injection site was graded as mild (hurt if gently touched example, whimpered, winced, protested, or withdrew), moderate (hurt if gently touched, with crying), and severe (caused limitation of limb movement).

Decreased appetite was graded as mild (decreased interest in eating), moderate (decreased oral intake) and severe (refusal to feed). Drowsiness was graded as mild (increased or prolonged sleeping bouts), moderate (slightly subdued, interfered with daily activity) and severe (disabling, not interested in usual daily activity). Irritability was graded as mild (easily consolable), moderate (required increased attention) and severe (inconsolable, crying could not be comforted). 95% CI was based on Clopper and Pearson method.

Hide Description Systemic events included fever, decreased appetite, drowsiness/increased sleep and irritability, recorded by parents/legal guardians of participant's using an e-diary. Fever was defined as temperature >= 38.0 degrees C and categorized as >=38.0 to 38.4 degrees C, >38.4 to 38.9 degrees C, >38.9 to 40.0 degrees C and >40.0 degrees C. Decreased appetite was graded as mild (decreased interest in eating), moderate (decreased oral intake) and severe (refusal to feed). Drowsiness was graded as mild (increased or prolonged sleeping bouts), moderate (slightly subdued, interfered with daily activity) and severe (disabling, not interested in usual daily activity). Irritability was graded as mild (easily consolable), moderate (required increased attention) and severe (inconsolable, crying could not be comforted). 95% CI was based on Clopper and Pearson method.

14.Primary Outcome
Title Serotype-specific IgG Geometric Mean Concentration (GMCs) and Geometric Mean Ratios (GMRs) at 1 Month After Dose 4
Hide Description Concentrations of anticapsular IgG for the 20 pneumococcal serotypes (1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 23F, 8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F, and 33F) were determined in all participants at 1 month after Dose 4 using the Luminex assay. Results were expressed as IgG concentrations. GMCs and 2-sided CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of the concentrations and the corresponding CIs based on the Student's t distribution. Assay result below LLOQ was set to 0.5*LLOQ. Geometric mean ratios (GMRs) were reported in statistical analysis section and were calculated by exponentiating mean difference of logarithm of concentration and corresponding 2-sided 95% CIs (based on Student's t distribution).
Time Frame From Dose 1 to 6 months following Dose 4
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
Dose 4 evaluable immunogenicity population: aged 42-98 days on Dose 1, received the first 4 doses randomized, had at least 1 valid immunogenicity result 27 to 56 days after Dose 4, had no major protocol deviations. "Number of Participants Analyzed"= participants in Dose 4 evaluable immunogenicity population, "Number Analyzed" = number of participants with valid IgG concentrations for the specified serotype reported at 1 month after Dose 4.
Arm/Group Title 20vPnC 13vPnC
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Infants 42 to 98 days of age were enrolled to receive 4 doses of 0.5 millilitre (mL) 20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (20vPnC) intramuscularly. Dose 1 was given at enrollment and Dose 2 and 3 were given 42 to 63 days from the previous dose. Dose 4 was administered at 365 to 455 days of age.

Dose 4 evaluable immunogenicity population: eligible participants aged 42-98 days on Dose 1, received all 4 doses, have at least 1 valid immunogenicity result within 27 to 56 days after Dose 4, and had no other major protocol deviations as determined by the clinician. "Number of Participants Analyzed"=number of participants in Dose 4 evaluable immunogenicity population with valid antibody concentrations for the specified antigen reported at 1 month after Dose 4.
Arm/Group Title 20vPnC 13vPnC
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Infants 42 to 98 days of age were enrolled to receive 4 doses of 0.5 millilitre (mL) 20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (20vPnC) intramuscularly. Dose 1 was given at enrollment and Dose 2 and 3 were given 42 to 63 days from the previous dose. Dose 4 was administered at 365 to 455 days of age.
Infants 42 to 98 days of age were enrolled to receive 4 doses of 0.5 millilitre (mL) 13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (13vPnC) intramuscularly. Dose 1 was given at enrollment and Dose 2 and 3 were given 42 to 63 days from the previous dose. Dose 4 was administered at 365 to 455 days of age.

Comments Mumps: GMR and 2-Sided CI were calculated by exponentiating the mean difference (20vPnC - 13vPnC) of the logarithms of the concentrations and the corresponding CI (based on the Student's t distribution).
Type of Statistical Test Non-Inferiority
Comments Noninferiority was declared if the lower bound of the 2-sided 95% CI for the GMR of 20vPnC group to 13vPnC group is greater than 0.5 (2-fold NI margin).

Title GMRs of Prespecified Antibody Levels to Specific Concomitant Vaccine Antigens (Rubella) 1 Month After Dose 4
Hide Description Antibody concentrations to concomitant vaccine antigen (rubella) were determined on sera collected 1 month after Dose 4 from a randomly selected subset of participants with sufficient sera volumes. GMs and 2-sided CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of the concentrations and the corresponding CIs based on the Student's t distribution and were reported from Dose 4 evaluable immunogenicity participants.
