Safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a 21-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, V116, in Japanese healthy adults: A Phase I study.

ABSTRACT: V116 is an investigational 21-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) to address the burden of residual adult pneumococcal disease after the introduction of pediatric PCVs into national immunization programs (NIPs) and includes serotypes highly prevalent in adult invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). This Phase I study assessed the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V116 in Japanese adults. Participants ≥20 years of age were randomized to receive a single dose of V116 or 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) at day 1. Outcomes were solicited injection-site and systemic adverse events (AEs) from day 1 to day 5, vaccine-related serious AEs from day 1 through day 30, and serotype-specific opsonophagocytic antibody (OPA) titers and immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrat
