Pneumococcal 15‑valent Conjugate Vaccine is indicated for active immunization for the prevention of invasive disease caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F, 23F, and 33F in individuals 6 weeks of age and older.
Pneumococcal 15‑valent Conjugate Vaccine (with Dr consultation)
Clinical data supporting approval demonstrated non-inferior immune responses for all serotypes shared with PCV13 following a four-dose series and superior immune responses for important disease-causing shared serotype 3 and unique serotypes 22F and 33F compared to PCV13.
With this expanded indication, Pneumococcal 15‑valent Conjugate Vaccine is the first pneumococcal conjugate vaccine approved in almost a decade to help protect pediatric populations against invasive pneumococcal disease.
Who should get pneumococcal vaccines
- Children under 2 years old: The standard regimen includes a primary series of 3 doses at 2, 4 and 6 months and a booster dose at 12-15 months.
- Aged 2 or above : Single dose of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine is recommended.
Invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) is an infection caused by the bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae, or pneumococcus. While there are approximately 100 different types of S. pneumoniae, called serotypes, a smaller number of serotypes are responsible for IPD in children. Serotypes 3, 22F and 33F are three of the top five serotypes causing childhood cases of IPD. IPD can lead to hospitalization or death. Some examples of IPD are bacteremia (an infection in the blood) and meningitis (an infection of the coverings of the brain and spinal cord), which can also result in long-term neurological complications. Children under the age of 2 are particularly vulnerable to IPD.
Pneumococcal 15‑valent Conjugate Vaccine, Merck’s 15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, consists of purified capsular polysaccharides from S.pneumoniae serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F, 23F and 33F individually conjugated to CRM197 carrier protein. Pneumococcal 15‑valent Conjugate Vaccine is indicated for active immunization of individuals 6 weeks of age and older for the prevention of invasive disease caused by the S. pneumoniae serotypes contained in the vaccine. The FDA initially approved Pneumococcal 15‑valent Conjugate Vaccine in July 2021.
