| Περιγραφή: | BACKGROUND: After pneumococcal disease and colonization have been controlled through vaccination campaigns, a reduced pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) schedule may be sufficient to sustain that control at reduced costs. METHODS: We investigated whether a single primary dose and booster dose (1p+1) of the 10-valent PCV (PCV10) would be noninferior to alternative dose schedules in sustaining control of carriage of pneumococcal serotypes included in the vaccine. In Nha Trang, Vietnam, an area in which PCV had not been used previously, a PCV10 catch-up campaign was conducted in which the vaccine was offered to children younger than 3 years of age, after which a cluster-randomized trial was conducted in which children received PCV10 at 2, 3, and 4 months of age (3p+0 group); at 2, 4, and 12 months of age (2p+1 group); at 2 and 12 months of age (1p+1 group); or at 12 months of age (0p+1 group). Annual carriage surveys in infants (4 to 11 months of age) and toddlers (14 to 24 months of age) were conducted from 2016 through 2020. The primary end point was protection against carriage of vaccine serotypes, evaluated in a noninferiority analysis in the 1p+1 group as compared with the 2p+1 and 3p+0 groups, 3.5 years after vaccine introduction (noninferiority margin, 5 percentage points). Noninferiority of the 0p+1 schedule was also evaluated. RESULTS: In 2016, before the introduction of PCV10, vaccine-serotype carriage was found in 160 of 1363 infants (11.7%); in 2020, vaccine-serotype carriage was found in 6 of 333 (1.8%), 5 of 340 (1.5%), and 4 of 313 (1.3%) infants in the 1p+1, 2p+1, and 3p+0 groups, respectively, indicating noninferiority of 1p+1 to 2p+1 (difference, 0.3 percentage points; 95% confidence interval [CI], -1.6 to 2.2) and to 3p+0 (difference, 0.5 percentage points; 95% CI, -1.4 to 2.4). Similarly, 1p+1 was noninferior to 2p+1 and 3p+0 for protection against vaccine-serotype carriage among toddlers. In 2016, carriage of serotype 6A was found in 99 of 1363 infants (7.3%); in 2020, it was found in 12 of ... |
