Brief Summary  

This is an open label multicentric clinical trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Diphtheria and Tetanus vaccine (Adsorbed) for Adults and Adolescents I.P. (TeddyVacTM vaccine) in healthy pregnant women. The primary objectives are to evaluate safety of TeddyVacTM vaccine when administered in healthy pregnant women, proportion of the subjects experiencing local and/or systemic adverse events till 28 days after each dose of vaccination and number of serious adverse events occurring till 28 days after second dose of vaccination.

The Secondary objective is to determine the Immunogenicity i.e., Humoral immune response after administration of TeddyVacTM vaccine in healthy pregnant women till 28 days after the second dose of vaccination and Exporatory objectives are evaluate number of serious adverse events occurring till the delivery of the child, and the safety of the newborn w.r.t any malformations., to determine the Immunogenicity i.e., Humoral immune response after administration of TeddyVacTM vaccine in healthy pregnant women within 48 hours of delivery of child and the immunogenicity in children born to the subjects by assessing the anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus antibody titres within 48 hours of delivery.

Blood samples for the anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus antibody titres estimation will be collected during the screening visit (Visit 1), 28 days after the second dose of vaccination (visit 4) and within 48 hours of delivery of child (Visit 5). The pre-vaccination and post-vaccination serum samples from the subjects will be tested for anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus antibodies in a central laboratory by using commercially available kits. Blood sample will also be collected from the child within 48 hours after birth for estimation of anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus antibodies.The study will be conducted in four site.
