Title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate Efficacy, Safety, and Immunogenicity of V260 in Healthy Chinese Infants
Brief Summary: This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of a 3-dose regimen of RotaTeq™ (V260) in healthy Chinese infants. Approximately 4040 participants at least 6 weeks and up to 12 weeks of age at the time of the first vaccination with V260 or placebo will be enrolled and randomized (1:1) to receive either V260 or placebo. Participants will also receive the routine China Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) vaccines (oral poliovirus vaccine \[OPV\] and diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine \[DTaP\]) either staggered or concomitantly with V260 or placebo. All participants will be followed for efficacy and safety. Immune responses to OPV and DTaP will be evaluated in a subset of participants. The primary hypothesis of the study states that V260 will be efficacious in preventing any severity of rotavirus gastroenteritis as compared with placebo.

C: Inclusion criteria: Healthy infants between 5 and 10 weeks of age at first study vaccination with (after the 2002 RV season) confirmed negative HIV status of the subject's mother during pregnancy or thereafter. Exclusion criteria: History of allergic disease, any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, clinically significant history of chronic gastrointestinal disease or other serious medical condition as determined by the investigator or had not received treatment prohibited by the protocol.
D: Inclusion criteria:
