Pneumococcal infections remain frequent and potentially fatal. To prevent them, two anti-pneumococcal vaccines exist: a 13-valent conjugate vaccine (Prevenar®) and a 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine (Pneumovax®). For their utilization, several studies approved a prime-boost strategy. It consist two administer Pneumovax® at least two months later than Prevenar®. Patients with diffuse large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) have a higher-risk to develop a pneumococcal infection. The main reason is immunosuppression, induced by rituximab (B cell depletion), chemotherapy and lymphoma. Patients are treated by immunochemotherapy, combining rituximab (anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody) and conventional chemotherapy (CHOP). However, those patients have a low rate of vaccination (about 15%).
NCT06822907
Streptococcus pneumoniae is responsible for serious infections associated to numerous hospitalizations and high rate of mortality. The incidence and therefore the burden of pneumococcal infections have been significantly reduced thanks to the use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs). PCVs were shown to be effective against vaccine-type serotypes causing both non-invasive and invasive pneumococcal diseases (IPD) in children and adults. PCVs use in children was shown to have an impact on IPD incidence among adults due to herd immunity and on antimicrobial resistance. To increase the protection of at-risk patients against IPD, the 20-valent PCV (PCV-20) is recently recommended in adults, after a period where PCV-13 followed by pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine 23 valent (PPV-23) was recommended. PCV-20 effectiveness against IPD and against pneumonia was inferred from immunobridging with PCV-13. Indeed PCV-13 was shown effective to reduce the incidence of low respiratory tract infections and IPD (bacteraemia and meningitis) in 65-years-old-adults and older. Currently immunization against S. pneumoniae is recommended with PCV-20 for adult patients at-risk for IPD such as immunocompromised (=high-risk patients) and in immunocompetent people with underlying chronic conditions (cardiovascular, liver, pulmonary, kidney diseases and diabetes mellitus) (=medium risk patients). However, vaccine coverage against IPD in adults remains low globally, and does not exceed 5 % in France. Reducing missed opportunities of vaccination for S. pneumoniae is crucial.
NCT05412030
This is a Phase 2 clinical study to support the use of AFX3772 in healthy infants for the prevention of pneumococcal disease. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 3 different formulations of AFX3772 compared with Prevnar 13 (PCV13) and Prevnar 20 (PCV). Part 1 is the dose escalation, lead-in portion of the study in which infants at each dose level will be randomized 3:1 in sequential cohorts of increasing doses of AFX3772 or PCV13. In Part 2, infants will be randomized to receive either one of two dose levels of AFX3772 or PCV20.

The NoseSpn-Elderly study aims at characterizing the immune response in the upper respiratory tract in adults aged 60 and over diagnosed with a pneumonia due to a Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) infection. The immune response during the acute phase of the infection and after recovery will be compared to the immune response of asymptomatic Spn carriers as well as to the immune response of patients diagnosed with a viral respiratory infection (flu or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)). The primary objective of this observational study is to quantify the inflammatory response in the nasal cavity and to correlate it with bacterial/viral load and with clinical parameters. The study also aims to compare the inflammatory response measured in the nose to that measured in the blood. Participants will have two study visits including a blood draw, several nasal samplings (nasal lining fluid and nasal cells) and a saliva sampling, one within 72 hours of their hospital admission and another one month later. Nasal lining fluid and saliva will be obtained every two or three days until discharge from the hospital or resolution of symptoms. During those visits, questions regarding symptoms will be asked.

A 6 and 12 month safety and immunogenicity study of participants in study GPNV-001, a novel whole-cell pneumococcal vaccine.
NCT05920499
The goal of this cluster-randomized trial is to study the effect of Audit and Feedback loops on pneumococcal vaccination coverage rate in adults at risk in general practice. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To assess the effect of "clinical AUDIT and feedback" loops on the pneumococcal vaccination coverage rate in adults at risk in general practice. * To explore whether the increase in vaccination coverage rate after implementation of Audit and Feedback loops is different in specific subgroups (risk groups, male/female, age, smoking status). Every general practice center assigned to the control or intervention group will have access to a clinical AUDIT to identify patients that may benefit from a pneumococcal vaccination. The general practice centers in the intervention group will also receive an individualized extended electronic feedback report, with multiple components like benchmarked performances and action plans, at baseline and each 2 months from baseline onwards.

Streptococcus pneumoniae is the major cause of bacterial infection in patients with sickle cells disease. The 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PSV) is supposed to be poorly immunogenic in these patients. We want to evaluate whether a prime with a 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV), able to induce immunologic memory, would improve the immune response against SP polysaccharides (SPP). Primary objective: To evaluate and compare the specific antibody response to a prime-boost vaccine strategy combining PCV prime at W0 followed by the administration of PSV boost at W4, to the administration of PSV alone at W4 in patients with sickle cells disease. Secondary objectives: Evaluation and comparison of the specific antibody response to the thirteen pneumococcal serotypes shared by the PCV and PSV vaccines, 4 weeks after the single PSV vaccination for patients from Group 1 or 4 weeks after the boost PSV vaccination for patients from group 2. Evaluation of the duration of the specific antibody response at W24 and 96. Evaluation of the T CD4 lymphocyte response to the CRM 197 protein. Safety of the vaccines. Study Design: Randomised, monocentric, controlled phase II study of the immunological efficacy of a prime boost strategy combining the sequential administration of the PCV and PSV, compared to the administration of the PSV alone. 180 adults patients with sickle cells disease will be included. The primary endpoint : proportion of responders at W8 to at least 10 of thirteen serotypes. Secondary endpoints : Proportion of responders at W8 according to 4 categories of responders: 5-7; 3-4; 2-1 and 0. Evaluation of the pneumococcal opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) at baseline and W8 for each serotype, defined as the proportion of patients with OPA \> 1:8 geometric mean of the specific antibody titers proportion of patients who experienced an increase of specific antibody levels 1 g/ml. Evaluation of the priming effect of the PCV vaccine in the group 1. Duration of the specific antibody responses at week 24 and W96. CD4 T lymphocyte responses to the CRM 197 protein (proliferative and cytokine production) at weeks 0, 8 and 12. Safety of the vaccines frequency of Streptococcus pneumoniae infections. Statistical Considerations: With a sample size of 180 patients, and a randomization ration of 1:1, the study will have a power of at least 90% to show a difference of 25% category between the group receiving PCV and PSV vs the group receiving PSV alone (two-sided type I error = 5%). The primary comparison between both groups will be performed using a Chi2 test for independent groups or a Fisher exact test where appropriate.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), immunization; is defined as making a person immune or resistant to an infectious disease by applying a vaccine (1). The primary indicator of an effective immunization is that adequate vaccination rates have been achieved. The risk of cancer and chronic diseases increases with advancing age, which increases the importance of immunization in adults. Cancer patients, one of the patient groups for whom adult immunization is a priority and crucial, are subjected to immunosuppressive medications, making them vulnerable to infections. In cancer patients, infections are severe, antimicrobial treatments are sometimes insufficient, leading to morbidity and mortality. One of these infections is pneumococcal disease caused by Streptococcus pneumonia, with high morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Invasive pneumococcal disease is seen 23-48 times more frequently in cancer patients compared to healthy individuals. In many countries worldwide, the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and the 23-valent polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine, both developed to prevent pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumonia, are successfully used in childhood vaccination programs within the framework of WHO's immunization policies. However, in Turkey, like in the rest of the world, the required adult immunization rates have not been achieved yet. Immunization rates among cancer patients, one of the patient groups for whom adult vaccination is required, remain below the targeted levels. Pharmacists, one of the health professionals, have significant contributions to increasing vaccination rates in adults. According to studies, pharmacists can help raise immunization rates by providing education and information. In Turkey, no study has been conducted to assess the impact of vaccination education on cancer patients' attitudes and actions about the pneumococcal vaccine. This study aimed to determine the impact of pharmacist-led pneumonia and pneumococcal vaccine education on cancer patients' vaccination attitudes, knowledge, and vaccination rates.

This is a Phase 2, randomized, active-controlled, open-label study with a 3-arm parallel design. Healthy 2-month old infants (42 to 98 days of age) with no history of pneumococcal vaccination will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive a 4-dose series of: multivalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine coadministered with Prevnar 13 (Group 1); multivalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine given 1 month after Prevnar 13 (Group 2); or Prevnar 13 with a single dose of multivalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (Group 3).
NCT03480763
This study is designed 1) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114 and Prevnar 13™, 2) to describe the safety of sequential administration of V114 or Prevnar 13™ followed by PNEUMOVAX™23, and 3) to evaluate the immune responses to the 15 serotypes contained in V114 when PNEUMOVAX™23 is given approximately 12 months after receipt of either V114 or Prevnar 13™ in healthy adults 50 years of age or older. There was no formal hypothesis testing.
NCT02225587
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of sequential administration of Prevnar 13™ and Pneumovax™ 23 in healthy participants 50 years of age and older. The primary hypotheses in the study are that 1) geometric mean titers (GMTs) to pneumococcal serotypes 22F and 33F (serotypes in Pneumovax™ 23 but not in Prevnar 13™) as measured at Week 12 are superior in participants administered Prevnar 13™ on Day 1 and Pneumovax™ 23 at Week 8, as compared with participants administered Prevnar 13™ on Day 1 and placebo at Week 8 and 2) GMTs to pneumococcal serotypes shared by the two vaccines as measured at Week 12 are non-inferior in participants administered Prevnar 13™ followed by Pneumovax™ 23 as compared with participants administered Prevnar 13™ followed by placebo.
NCT00000829
To assess whether HIV-infected infants who receive a heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine have more local reactions at the site of injection and systemic reactions than placebo subjects. To assess whether this vaccine is more immunogenic than placebo following the third vaccination. Children with HIV infection are at increased risk for invasive pneumococcal infection, particularly bacteremia. A large proportion of pneumococcal disease is caused by a limited number of serotypes. The maximum number of pneumococcal serotypes that can be included in a new conjugate vaccine is felt to be limited by the amount of carrier protein. A heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has been developed that consists of pneumococcal capsular saccharides from serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F bound to a diphtheria toxin mutant carrier protein.
