NCT01402245

Brief Summary

Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine does not confer protection against noninvasive pneumonia. The study aims to compare lymphocyte homing in pneumonia and in those receiving Pnc polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) or Pnc conjugate vaccine (PCV)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Expression of homing receptors on circulating plasmablasts in Pnc pneumonia and after vaccination

    HR on circulating Pnc-specific plasmablasts are determined in patients with pneumonia on day 7-10, in vaccinees on days 0 and 7

    Day 0 and Day 7-10

PPV Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Volunteers immunized with Pnc polysaccharide vaccine

Biological: Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine

PCV Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
