REACTOGENICITY, ADVERSE EVENTS
2501 infants were enrolled between March 8, 2017, and July 24, 2018 and randomly assigned to study groups (400 to 0 + 1 PCV10, 400 to 0 + 1 PCV13, 402 to 1 + 1 PCV10, 401 to 1 + 1 PCV13, and 898 to control). Analysis of the primary endpoint included 341 participants for 0 + 1 PCV10, 356 0 + 1 PCV13, 358 1 + 1 PCV10, 350 1 + 1 PCV13, and 758 control. At 24 months, a 1 + 1 PCV10 schedule reduced PCV10-type carriage by 58% (95% CI 25 to 77), a 1 + 1 PCV13 schedule reduced PCV13-type carriage by 65% (42 to 79), a 0 + 1 PCV10 schedule reduced PCV10-type carriage by 53% (17 to 73), and a 0 + 1 PCV13 schedule non-significantly reduced PCV13-type carriage by 25% (–7 to 48) compared with the unvaccinated control group. Reactogenicity and serious adverse events were similar across groups.
