Study summary

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.

Inclusion criteria

  • Female participant: not pregnant, not breastfeeding and 1) not of , or 2) of childbearing potential and agrees to practice through 6 weeks after administration of last study vaccine.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Following vaccination with PNEUMOVAX™23, the percentage of participants with solicited systemic AEs was assessed. The solicited systemic AEs assessed were muscle pain/myalgia, joint pain/arthralgia, headache, and tiredness/fatigue.

PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Vaccine-related Serious Adverse Events Following V114 or Prevnar 13™

A serious adverse event (SAE) is an AE that is life-threatening, requires or prolongs an existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, is a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or is another important medical event deemed such by medical or scientific judgment. Relatedness of an SAE to the study vaccine will be determined by the investigator. Following vaccination with V114 or Prevnar 13™, the percentage of participants with vaccine-related serious adverse events was assessed.

PrimaryGeometric Mean Titer of Serotype-specific Opsonophagocytic Activity at 30 Days Following PNEUMOVAX™23

Serotype-specific opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean titers (GMTs) (estimated) and GMT ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a constrained longitudinal data analysis (cLDA) model utilizing data from both vaccination groups. Per the statistical analysis plan, the only CIs calculated were the between-group CIs (for the GMT ratios); within-group CIs were not calculated. OPA for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) will be determined using a Multiplexed Opsonophagocytic Assay.

SecondaryGMT of Serotype-specific OPA at Month 12

Serotype-specific OPA GMTs (estimated) and GMT ratios with 95% CIs were calculated using a constrained longitudinal data analysis (cLDA) model utilizing data from both vaccination groups. Per the statistical analysis plan, the only CIs calculated were the between-group CIs (for the GMT ratios); within-group CIs were not calculated. OPA for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) will be determined using a Multiplexed Opsonophagocytic Assay.

Activity for the serotypes contained in Prevnar 13™ and V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) will be determined using an electrochemiluminescence assay. The percentage of participants who had ≥ 4-fold rise in IgG concentration are calculated from baseline to postvaccination.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2018 to primary completion in Dec 2019, 18 months.

Results were first posted in Jan 2021, 1 year after primary completion.

Of 81 industry-sponsored phase 3 interventional studies under Pneumococcal Infections, half reached primary completion within 12 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 23. This study's 18 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 82 studies reached it within 13 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 23.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 2, 2021, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
