Concomitant administration of the Novavax vaccine and a 20-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in adults aged =60 years

Phase 1
Conditions
Vaccination is a key strategy for preventing respiratory illnesses. Pneumococcal vaccination is recommended for all adults (age >60 years). Given their wide application, co-administration of pneumococcal and Covid-19 vaccines may support broad population-wide coverage. However, it is unclear whether the co-administration of the new, Omicron-adapted Novavax (NVX XBB.1.5) vaccine and a 20-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine results in lower immunogenicity than the administration of either alone.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To investigate whether the combined administration of NVX XBB.1.5 with a PCV20 is non-inferior to the administration of the NVX vaccine alone in<br>terms of immunogenicity, as determined by anti-RBD antibody levels at day 28.;Secondary Objective: I. To investigate whether the combined administration of new Novavax with a 20-valent pneumococcal vaccine is non-inferior to the administration of the pneumococcal vaccine alone in terms of immunogenicity, as determined by serotype-specific opsonophagocytic antibody titers (OPA titers).<br>II. To compare the local and systemic reactogenicity following combined or separated administration of the two vaccines<br>;Primary end point(s): •Anti-RBD antibody levels (BAU/mL) at Day 28 ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary outcome of this study will be the comparison of anti-RBD antibody titers (BAU/ml) at 28 days after vaccination between the NVX arm and the Combination arm.
Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary end point(s): •Opsonophagocytic antibody titers (OPA titers) at Day 28<br>•Relative increase of Anti-RBD antibody levels (GMR)<br>•Relative increase in OPA titers (GMR)<br>•Proportion (%) of participants with serotype-specific OPA response (increase in OPA by =4-times)<br>•Relative increase of serotype-specific opsonophagocytic antibody titers (OPA titers) (GMR)<br>•PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection<br>•Microbiologically confirmed Pneumococcal infection<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 28<br>
