The Impact of Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) Coverage
Heterogeneities on the Changing Epidemiology of Invasive Pneumococcal
Disease in Switzerland, 2005–2019.
Oyewole OR-A, et. Al (2021)
Abstract
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) have lowered the incidence of invasive pneu- mococcal disease (IPD)
worldwide. However, the influence of regional vaccine uptake differences on the changing epidemiology of IPD
remains unclear. We aimed to examine the overall impact of both seven- and 13-valent PCVs (PCV7 and PCV13) on
IPD in Switzerland. Three-year periods from 2005–2010 and 2011–2019 were considered, respectively, as (early and
late) PCV7 eras and (early, mid and late) PCV13 eras. Vaccine coverage was estimated from a nationwide survey
according to east (German-speaking) and west (French/Italian-speaking) regions for each period. Reported
incidence rate ratios (IRRs) were compared between successive periods and regions using nationwide IPD
surveillance data. Overall IPD incidence across all ages was only 16% lower in the late PCV13 era compared to the
early PCV7 era (IRR 0.83, 95% CI 0.79–0.88), due to increasing incidence of non-PCV-type IPD (2.59, 2.37–2.83) in all
age groups, except children <5 years. PCV uptake rates in swiss children were slightly higher in the west than the
east (p < 0.001), and were accompanied by lower IPD incidences across all age groups in the former region. Post-
PCV13, non-PCV serotypes 8, 22F and 9N were the major cause of IPD in adults ≥65 years. Increased PCV coverage
in both areas of Switzerland resulted in a decrease in vaccine-type and overall IPD incidence across all age groups, in
a regionally dependent manner. However, the rising incidence of non-vaccine-type IPD, exclusive to older adults,
may undermine indirect beneficial effects.

Changes in Invasive Pneumococcal Disease Spectrum After 13-Valent
Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Implementation.
Levy C et al. (2020)
• Background. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) implementation has led to a sharp decrease in invasive pneumococcal disease
(IPD) due to the reduction in PCV serotypes. We aimed to describe the changes in the spectrum of IPD and its clinical presentations
after 13-valent PCV (PCV13) implementation.
• Methods. This prospective, hospital-based, active surveillance involved 130 pediatric wards and microbiology departments
throughout France. We analyzed IPD cases from 2011 to 2016 for which a pneumococcal isolate was sent to the National Reference
Center for Pneumococci for serotyping. Clinical data recorded were medical history, vaccination status, type of IPD, clinical features,
and short-term evolution.
• Results. Among 1082 IPD cases, we observed a 35.3% decrease (95% confidence interval, 29.2%–41.8%]) and the median age
shifted from 38.3 months to 23.7 months (P = .007). The change in IPD type was mostly due to a reduction in bacteremic
pneumonia frequency (from 42.1% to 19.1%; P < .001). Among the emerging non-PCV13 types (NVTs), those known to have the
highest disease potential (8, 12F, 24F, and 33F) were isolated more frequently in patients without underlying conditions and were
able to induce all IPD clinical presentations including bacteremic pneumonia. Conversely, serotypes with lower disease potential
(15A, 15BC, 16F, and 23B) were rarely isolated from bacteremic pneumonia cases and were particularly involved in IPD in patients
with underlying conditions (35.8%).
• Conclusions. Besides the decrease in IPD after 7-valent, then 13-valent PCV implementation, the
spectrum of the remaining IPD cases showed significant changes, with substantial discrepancies across
NVTs implicated in terms of clinical features and un- derlying conditions. cid 2020:70 (1 February)
Impact of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine
on laboratory-confirmed pneumococcal meningitis and purulent
meningitis among children.
Libwea JN et al.
Results
• Among children hospitalized with CSBM who had a lumbar puncture obtained, there was no significant change from the
EPE versus the LPE in the percentage identified with purulent meningitis: 7.5% (112/1486) versus 9.4% (154/1645), p =
0.0846. The percentage of pneumococcal meningitis cases due to PCV13 vaccine-serotype (VST) decreased from 62.0%
(31/50) during the EPE to 35.8% (19/53) in the LPE, p = 0.0081. The most frequent pneumococcal meningitis VSTs during
the EPE were 6A/6B (30%) and 5 (6%), and during the LPE were 14 (13.2%), 3 (7.6%), 4 (5.6%) and 18C (5.6%).
Conclusion
• Four to seven years after PCV13 introduction, the proportion of pneumococcal meningitis due to
vaccine serotypes has declined, mainly due to reductions of serotypes 6A/6B, 1, 19A, and 23F;
nevertheless, PCV13 VSTs remain common.
• Because the analyzed surveillance system was not consistent or population based, we could not
estimate incidence or overall impact; this emphasizes the need for improved surveillance to
document further the utility of PCV13 immunization in Cameroon.

13-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine in Older Children and Adolescents Either
Previously Immunized With or Naïve to 7-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine
Background: The 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) has been demonstrated to be immunogenic and safe
for administration to infants and children aged <5 years. PCV13 recently was approved for children and
adolescents aged up to 17 years as the vaccine may be of benefit to some in this older age group.
Methods: In this open-label study, healthy children aged ≥5 to <10 years (ie, the younger age group) previously vaccinated
(≥1 dose) with 7-valent PCV (PCV7) and pneumococcal vaccine-naïve children aged ≥10 to <18 years (ie, the older age
group) received 1 dose of PCV13. For the younger group, antipneumococcal immunoglobulin (Ig) G geometric mean
concentrations 1 month postvaccination were compared with posttoddler dose (PCV13 or PCV7) levels from a historical
control study. Opsonophagocytic activity geometric mean titers 1 month postvaccination for the older group
were compared with the younger age group. Safety data were collected.
Results: Five hundred and ninety-eight children were enrolled, 299 in each age group. For PCV7 serotypes, IgG geometric
mean concentrations in the younger group were 8.23–53.56 μg/mL, ≥2.5-fold greater than historical posttoddler dose values.
For the 6 additional serotypes, IgG geometric mean concentrations in the younger group were 2.38–21.51 μg/mL, ≥1.2-fold
greater than historical posttoddler dose values. Opsonophagocytic activity geometric mean titers were similar in the older
and younger age groups, except for serotype 3 which was lower in the older group. Safety was comparable in both groups.
Conclusions: PCV13 was immunogenic and safe when administered to older children and adolescents,
regardless of prior PCV7 vaccination.
A phase 3, multicenter, single-arm, open-label study to assess the safety, tolerability,
and immunogenicity of a single dose of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in
Japanese participants aged 6–64 years who are considered to be at increased risk of
pneumococcal disease and who are naive to pneumococcal vaccines
Background: This open-label, single-arm, phase 3 study evaluated safety and immunogenicity of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine
(PCV13) in pneumococcal vaccine-naive Japanese individuals aged 6–64 years at increased risk of pneumococcal disease (PD).
Methods: Participants received 1 PCV13 dose. Reactogenicity events were recorded for 7 days (individuals aged 6- to 17-year-old) or 14 days
(individuals aged 18 to 64 years old) postvaccination. Adverse events (AEs) were collected for 1 month postvaccination. Opsonophagocytic
activity (OPA) and anticapsular immunoglobulin G (IgG) geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) were measured for vaccine serotypes before and
1 month postvaccination. Post hoc analyses compared immunogenicity in participants categorized as at-risk (immunocompetent but having
chronic medical conditions associated with increased PD risk) or high-risk (immunocompromised due to diseases/conditions and/or
medications).
Results: 206 participants aged 6- to 17-year-old (n = 53) and 18 to 64 years old (n = 153) completed the study. Reactogenicity events were
generally mild to moderate in severity. AEs were reported in 16% (33/206) of participants; 1.0% (2/206) were severe. Six AEs were vaccine-
related; most were associated with local reactions. No serious AEs occurred. Circulating antibody levels for all 13 serotypes increased
postvaccination. OPA geometric mean fold rises (GMFRs) from prevaccination to 1 month postvaccination were 5.5–61.7; lower limits of the 2-
sided, 95% CI were > 1 for all serotypes. IgG GMFRs were consistent with OPA analyses. In post hoc analyses, 55.8% (115/206) and 44.2%
(91/206) of participants were categorized as at risk and at high risk of PD, respectively; OPA GMFRs from prevaccination to 1 month
postvaccination were 3.9–635.1, with lower limits of the 2-sided 95% CIs > 1 for all 13 serotypes across these risk groups; IgG GMFRs were
consistent with OPA analyses.
Conclusions: PCV13 was well tolerated and immunogenic in Japanese individuals aged 6–64 years
considered at increased risk of PD. Results were broadly comparable with past PCV13 studies in other
Japanese and non-Japanese populations.

Long-term Immune Responses to Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines in Children
Previously Vaccinated With 7-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine
Background: Seven-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) has reduced incidence of vaccine-serotype
pneumococcal diseases. Using a single dose of 13-valent pneumoccal conjugate vaccine (PCV13), we evaluated late
immune responses 10 years after vaccination with PCV7 in infancy, compared with a PCV7-naïve cohort.
Methods: In this open-label study, we administered 1 dose of PCV13 to children aged 11–14 years who had previously
received PCV7 (PCV7/ PCV13) or meningococcal group C conjugate vaccine (MnCC/PCV13) during infancy. We evaluated
serotype-specific immunoglobulin G concentrations and opsonophagocytic activity prevaccination and 1 week and 1
month postvaccination. We recorded local reactions and systemic events for 4 days postvaccination and adverse events
for 6 months.
Results: Seventy-four subjects received PCV13 (PCV7/PCV13, n = 38; MnCC/PCV13, n = 36). Prevaccination with PCV13,
>62.9% of subjects had immunoglobulin G concentrations ≥0.35 μg/mL for all serotypes except serotype 4 (28–29%);
proportions increased at 1 month postvaccination to 100% for all serotypes except serotypes 3 (PCV7/PCV13, 94.7%;
MnCC/PCV13, 97.0%) and 14 (MnCC/PCV13, 97.1%). Immunoglobulin G and opsonophagocytic activity concentrations
for the 7 common and 6 additional serotypes were similar in both groups prevaccination and increased in both groups
from prevaccination to 1 week and 1 month postvaccination. Local reactions and fever were mild or moderate; no
serious adverse events were reported.
Conclusion: Late immune responses after a single dose of PCV13 were similar in children aged 11–14 years
regardless of previous vaccination with PCV7 or MnCC. PCV13 was immunogenic, safe and well tolerated.
