Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The rate of experimental pneumococcal colonisation with SPN3 determined by the presence of pneumococcus in nasal wash (NW) by classical culture or molecular methods

    The rate of experimental pneumococcal colonisation with SPN3 determined by the presence of pneumococcus in nasal wash (NW) by classical culture or molecular methods at any time point during 23 days following experimental human pneumococcal challenge (EHPC) 1 month after vaccination in the PCV-13, PPV-23 and control groups.

    any time point during 23 days following experimental human pneumococcal challenge (EHPC) 1 month after vaccination in the PCV-13, PPV-23 and control groups.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 55 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Healthy adults aged 18-50 years (inclusive)
  • Fluent spoken English - to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the research project and their proposed involvement
  • Capacity to provide written informed consent
  • Females of childbearing potential with a negative urine pregnancy test at screening and willing to practice adequate birth control measures during the study.

You may not qualify if:

  • Be currently involved in another study unless observational or non-interventional. Exceptions are the EHPC bronchoscopy study and COVID-19 observational and interventional trials. The exceptions will be applied at the discretion of the Chief Investigator to ensure no harm comes to the participants (e.g. excessive blood sampling)
  • Be a participant in a previous EHPC trial within the last 3 years (at the discretion of the study team).
  • Vaccination (self-reported or confirmed from GP questionnaire \[GPQ\] or medical summary if deemed necessary at clinician discretion): Have had any previous pneumococcal vaccination (including in a research study).
  • Allergy:
  • Have allergy to penicillin or amoxicillin.
  • Have previous anaphylaxis or severe adverse reaction to any component/excipient of the vaccines or to any vaccine.
  • Health history (self-reported by the participant or confirmed in GPQ or medical summary if deemed necessary at clinician discretion): Ill health including but not limited to:
  • Asplenia or dysfunction of the spleen.
  • Chronic respiratory disease (e.g. asthma \[on medication\], COPD, emphysema, bronchiectasis).
  • Chronic heart disease (e.g. angina, ischaemic heart disease, chronic heart failure) \[controlled stable hypertension may be included\].
  • Chronic kidney disease (e.g. nephrotic syndrome, kidney transplant, on dialysis).
  • Chronic liver disease (e.g. cirrhosis, biliary atresia, hepatitis).
  • Chronic neurological conditions
  • Connective tissue disease
  • Dementia
  • +28 more criteria

Masking Details
Participants will remain blinded until the completion of the last participant, last study visit (Day 23: 7-month challenge). As the appearance of the vaccines are different, physical blindfolds may be worn by the participant to maintain blinding. This method of blinding has been used by our team previously and the time wearing the blindfold is kept to an absolute minimum for participant comfort. Un-blinded clinical team members will prepare and administer the vaccines/placebo to the participants in a blinded manner, shielding the vaccine formula, syringe and box from the participant when it is administered. The vaccine will be checked and prepared in a separate room to the participant and in a separate location to the blinded team. The participant will be seated in the vaccination room, the un-blinded clinical members will enter the vaccination room immediately prior to administration. Local SOPs will be followed to ensure appropriate participant team blinding.
