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. Registration number: NCT03571607; JapicCTI-184024.
