Study summary

The aim of the study are to assess the persistence of immunity against vaccine serotypes (VSTs) and vaccine-related serotypes in PCV10 vaccinated children in Finland.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective is to evaluate the long-term persistence of humoral immunity to vaccine-related pneumococcal serotypes after vaccination with PCV10.

Study population

Children born in 2008-2010 in the Hospital District of Southwest Finland. These children participated in the Finnish Invasive Pneumococcal Disease (FinIP) Vaccine Trial before introduction of PCV10 into the national immunization program in 2010. Serum samples from the children were collected in The Steps to the Healthy Development and Well-being of Children (STEPS) Study at the ages of 13 months, 2 years and 3 years.

Inclusion criteria

  • Completed PCV10 vaccination with 3 or 4 doses (2+1 or 3+1 schedule) before blood sampling at age of 13 months
  • Age at sample collection 13 months, 2 years or 3 years
  • PCV10 vaccination received 2-6 weeks before sample collection at the age of 1 year
  • Informed consent obtained covering the planned analyses

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • PCV13 or PPV23 dose received

Groups and cohorts

  • PCV10 2+1 schedule

    Ten-valent pneumococcal Haemophilus influenzae protein D conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV10; GlaxoSmithKline) administered with a 2+1 schedule (two vaccinations with minimum 8-week intervals followed by a booster dose at least 4 months after the last primary dose).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Persistence of Humoral Immunity Following PCV10 Vaccination

    Persistence of humoral immunity to vaccine- and vaccine-related pneumococcal serotypes after vaccination with PCV10. The serotype 19A specific geometric mean IgG antibody concentrations are reported as micrograms per ml with 95% confidence intervals.
