What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants With Local Reactions Within 10 Days After Vaccination 1
Local reactions included pain at injection site, swelling and redness recorded by participants in an electronic diary (e-diary). 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 centimeter (cm), moderate: 5.5 to 10.0 cm and severe: greater than or equal to (>=) 10.5 cm. Pain was graded as mild: did not interfere with activity, moderate: interfered with activity and severe: prevented daily activity.
Measured: within 10 days after Vaccination 1
Percentage of Participants With Systemic Events Within 7 Days After Vaccination 1
Systemic events included fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain, recorded by participants in an e-diary. Fever was categorized as: >=38.0 degrees Celsius (C), >=38.0 to 38.4 degrees C, >38.4 to 38.9 degrees C, >38.9 to 40.0 degrees C and >40.0 degrees C. Fatigue, headache, muscle pain and joint pain were graded as mild: no interference with activity, moderate: some interference with activity and severe: prevents daily routine activity.
Measured: within 7 days after Vaccination 1
Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Within 1 Month After Vaccination 1
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received investigational product without regard to possibility of causal relationship. AEs included both serious and non-serious adverse events. Serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.
Measured: within 1 month after Vaccination 1 (up to 35 days)
Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) or Newly Diagnosed Chronic Medical Conditions (NDCMCs) Within 6 Months After Vaccination 1
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. An NDCMC was defined as a 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 either SAE or NDCMCs during the specified duration are reported.
Measured: within 6 months after Vaccination 1 (up to 196 days)
Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) or Newly Diagnosed Chronic Medical Conditions (NDCMCs) Within 12 Months After Vaccination 1
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. An NDCMC was defined as a 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 either SAE or NDCMCs during the specified duration are reported.
Measured: within 12 months after Vaccination 1 (up to 378 days)
Secondary outcomes (4)
Serotype-Specific Pneumococcal Opsonophagocytic Activity (OPA) Geometric Mean Titres (GMTs) 1 Month After Vaccination 1: 13 Common Serotypes in 13vPnC
Antibody-mediated serum OPA against the 13 common pneumococcal serotypes specific to 13vPnC (serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F and 23F) were measured using a pneumococcal OPA assay. Results were expressed as OPA GMTs. Assay results below the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) were set to 0.5*LLOQ in the analysis.
Measured: 1 month after Vaccination 1
Serotype-Specific Pneumococcal Opsonophagocytic Activity (OPA) Geometric Mean Titres (GMTs) 1 Month After Any Vaccination: 7 Additional Serotypes in 20vPnC
Antibody-mediated serum OPA against the 7 additional pneumococcal serotypes (8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F, 33F) were measured using a pneumococcal OPA assay. Results were expressed as OPA GMTs. Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5*LLOQ in the analysis.
Measured: 1 month after Vaccination 1 for 20vPnC followed by saline reporting group; 1 month after Vaccination 2 for 13vPnC followed by PPSV23 reporting group
Serotype-specific Pneumococcal Opsonophagocytic Activity (OPA) Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) From Pre-Vaccination 1 to 1 Month Post-Vaccination 1: 13 Common Serotypes in 13vPnC
GMFR for the 13 pneumococcal serotypes (1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, and 23F) from before Vaccination 1 to one month after Vaccination 1 were calculated as the mean of the difference of logarithmically transformed OPA results (after vaccination - before vaccination) and transform back to the original scale. GMFRs were calculated using data from participants with non-missing OPA results at both time points. Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5*LLOQ in the analysis.
Measured: before Vaccination 1 to one month after Vaccination 1
Serotype-specific Pneumococcal Opsonophagocytic Activity (OPA) Geometric Mean Fold Rise (GMFR) From Pre-Vaccination 1 to 1 Month Post Any Vaccination: 7 Additional Serotypes in 20vPnC
GMFR for 7 additional pneumococcal serotypes (8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F, 33F) from before Vaccination 1 to one month after either Vaccination 1 (20vPnC) or Vaccination 2 (PPSV23) were calculated as the mean of the difference of logarithmically transformed OPA results (after vaccination - before vaccination) and transform back to the original scale. GMFRs were calculated using data from participants with non-missing OPA results at both time points. Assay results below the LLOQ were set to 0.5*LLOQ in the analysis.
Measured: before Vaccination 1 to 1 month after Vaccination 1 for 20vPnC followed by saline reporting group; before Vaccination 1 to 1 month after Vaccination 2 for 13vPnC followed by PPSV23 reporting group

What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Multivalent, Prevnar 13 and PPSV23 in people with Pneumococcal Infections, run by Pfizer at 14 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 14 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Dec 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
