Safety and Immunogenicity of 20vPnC Coadministered With SIIV in Adults ≥65 Years of Age

Local reactions were collected at the 20vPnC injection sites after Vaccination 1 and Vaccination 2 and were recorded by the participants using an electronic diary (e-diary). Local reactions included redness, swelling and pain at the injection site. Redness and swelling were measured and recorded in measuring device units. 1 measuring device unit =0.5 centimeter (cm). Redness and swelling were graded as mild (greater than [>] 2.0 to 5.0 cm), moderate (>5.0 to 10.0 cm) and severe (>10.0 cm). Pain at injection site was graded as mild (did not interfere with activity), moderate (interfered with activity), and severe (prevented daily activity). Percentage of participants with local reactions at the 20vPnC injection site in the Coadministration group and the Separate administration group and the associated 2-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

Systemic events including fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain were recorded by participants using an e-diary. Fever was defined as temperature >=38.0 degree Celsius (C) and categorized as >=38.0 to 38.4 degree C, >38.4 to 38.9 degree C, >38.9 to 40.0 degree C and >40.0 degree C. Fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain were graded as mild (did not interfere with activity), moderate (some interference with activity) and severe (prevented daily routine activity). Percentage of participants with systemic events within 7 days after each vaccination and the associated 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.

An SAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose that results in death; is life-threatening (immediate risk of death); requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent disability/incapacity (substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions); results in congenital anomaly/birth defect or that is considered to be an important medical event. Percentage of participants with SAEs and the associated 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

An NDCMC was defined as a significant disease or medical condition, not previously identified, that is expected to be persistent or is otherwise long-lasting in its effects. Percentage of participants with NDCMC and the associated 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

OPA titers were measured from serum samples for 20vPnC serotypes: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F,8, 9V, 10A, 11A, 12F, 14, 15B, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F, 23F, 33F. GMTs and 2-sided CIs were calculated by exponentiating the LS means and the corresponding CIs based on analysis of log-transformed OPA titers using a regression model

HAI titers to the influenza strains (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Victoria, and B/Phuket) in the SIIV administered sera samples was collected and reported in this outcome measure at 1 month after Vaccination 1. GMTs and 2-sided CIs were calculated by exponentiating the LS means and the corresponding CIs based on analysis of log-transformed HAI titers using a regression model.

OPA titers were measured from serum samples for 20vPnC serotypes: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F,8, 9V, 10A, 11A, 12F, 14, 15B, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F, 23F, 33F. Percentage of participants with >=4 fold rise in serotype-specific OPA titers from before vaccination to 1 month after vaccination with 20vPnC and the associated 2-sided 95% CI based on the Clopper and Pearson method was presented.

OPA titers were measured from serum samples for serotypes: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F,8, 9V, 10A, 11A, 12F, 14, 15B, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F, 23F, 33F. GMFR was calculated as geometric mean of fold rise from before vaccination on Day 1 to 1 month after vaccination with 20vPnC. GMFRs and the corresponding 2-sided CIs were calculated by exponentiating the mean logarithm of the OPA titers or fold rises and the corresponding CIs.

HAI titers were measured from serum samples for serotypes A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B/Victoria, B/Phuket. GMFR was calculated as geometric mean of fold rise from before vaccination on Day 1 to 1 month after vaccination with SIIV. GMFRs were calculated for participants with non-missing values both before and after vaccination.
