Brief Summary

Children/ young people with diabetes may be at a higher risk of acquiring certain infections. These infections include those caused by a bacterium called the pneumococcus which can cause pneumonia, meningitis and ear infections. In the UK older children with diabetes are given a vaccine against the pneumococcus bug called Pneumovax (or PPS23 for short). Although PPS23 causes a good immune response in children over 2 years of age it is not actually known how well PPS23 protects against infection in children of any age. In addition there is some data in adults and children that PPS23 may result in a reduced response to future doses of pneumococcal vaccines (hyporesponsiveness). Because of the lack of information on how well PPS23 protects and potential hyporesponsiveness the investigators would like to study the use of an alternative vaccine against pneumococcus called Prevenar13 (or pCV13). This vaccine is known to be safe and to work well in babies and young children and there have been no concerns about hyporesponsiveness. It has been approved for use in children up to 17 years of age but there is little information on the size and duration of immune response to PCV13 in children aged 6 years and older.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pneumococcal serotype-specific (SpVS) antibody concentrations at 3 months following a single dose of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13)

    The geometric mean concentration (GMC), together with 95% confidence intervals, of SpVS antibody at baseline, 3 months and 12 months following a single dose of PCV13.

    3 months after vaccination

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Pneumococcal serotype-specific GMC for serotypes 4, 7F & 19A at 3 months after immunisation with a single dose of PCV13 in the children who have had a prior dose of PPS23 vs those who have not.

    3 months after vaccination

  • Pneumococcal serotype-specific (SpVS) antibody concentrations at baseline and 12 months following a single dose of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13).

    12 months after vaccination

  • GMC of SpVS antibody at baseline, 3mnth and 12mnth following 1 dose of PCV13

    12 months after vaccination

  • Pneumococcal serotype-specific GMC for all vaccine-specific serotypes (VS) at baseline, 3 months and 12 months following immunisation with a single dose of PCV13 in children who have had a prior dose of PPS23 and those who have not.

    12 months after vaccination

  • Pneumococcal serotype-specific antibody concentrations for all VS in children who have had a prior dose of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPS23) and those who have not.

    12 months after vaccination

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
