Efficacy of a novel, protein-based pneumococcal vaccine against nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae in infants: A phase 2, randomized, controlled, observer-blind study
Highlights • Pneumococcal protein antigens could provide serotype-independent protection. • Two PHiD-CV/dPly/PhtD vaccine formulations were assessed in healthy infants. • Both protein-based vaccines elicited immune responses to pneumococcal proteins. • The vaccines had no impact on pneumococcal naso...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Pneumococcal protein antigens could provide serotype-independent protection. • Two PHiD-CV/dPly/PhtD vaccine formulations were assessed in healthy infants. • Both protein-based vaccines elicited immune responses to pneumococcal proteins. • The vaccines had no impact on pneumococcal nasopharyngeal carriage prevalence. • Future evaluations will assess their impact against pneumococcal disease endpoints. |
