The Pneumococcus
• Major cause of respiratory disease and
bacterial meningitis worldwide
Invasive Pneumococcal Disease
(IPD)
• Case Definition:
– Isolation of Streptococcus Pneumoniae
from a normally sterile site (not including
middle ear)
or
– Demonstration of Streptococcus
Pneumoniae antigen in Cerebrospinal Fluid
• Invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD)
– Pneumonia with bloodstream infection,
septicemia, meningitis
• Localized respiratory disease
– Middle ear infections, sinusitis, bronchitis,
pneumonia
Capsule Polysaccharide
• Define the virulence
• The main target of vaccine
intervention
Epidemiology
Epidemiology
• Very common in the very young and very old
• Reservoir:
Human, colonization in the
upper respiratory tract
of healthy people

Respiratory droplets, direct
oral contacts, indirectly
through articles freshly soiled
with respiratory discharges
• Incubation Period:
1-3 days

Burden of
Pneumococcal
Disease
Pneumonia
• Largest infectious Disease Causes of
Child Death Worldwide*
• Can be bacterial / viral, but the 1st cause if
Streptococcus Pneumoniae
– Responsible for >1 million child deaths
annually
• In developed countries, high morbidity
(empyema, ..) and adult carries most of
the burden of the disease

Disease
• Overall burden is difficult to estimate
• Problems inherent in establishing
bacterial etiology in people with
pneumonia, bacteraemia, meningitis or
otitis media

Vaccination against
Pneumococcus
Capsular antibodies directed vs
specific serotypes
Vaccination
• Pneumococcal Polysaccharide
vaccine (Pneumovax)
– Directed against 23 capsular
serotypes
– Overall protective efficacy of 6070%
Recommendation for
Polysaccharide
Pneumococcal Vaccine
• Healthy elderly people (> 65 years of age),
particularly those living in institutions
• Patients with chronic cardiopulmonary
disease, DM, alcoholism, chronic liver
disease, CSF leak
• Particular immunodeficiencies
• Children with high risk- sickle cell anaemia or
splenectomized
Problems with polysaccharide
vaccine in children
•
•
•
•
•
Not effective in children less than 2 years
No effect on nasal carriage
No herd effect
Absence of immunologic memory
Antibody level to several serotypes decline to
pre-vaccination values within 3-7 years
corresponding to a decline of clinical
protection
Conjugate Vaccine
• A new generation of pneumococcal vaccines
• Coating removal of the capsular
polysaccharide
• 7 (9, 11 or 13, …) types of saccharide is
separately activated and conjugated to
protein carrier
• Conjugates are mixed to formulate vaccine
Conjugate Vaccine
• induce a T-cell dependent immune
response.
• These vaccines are protective even in
children under two years of age, and
may reduce pneumococcal transmission
through a herd effect
Prevenar (PCV7)

Serotypes contained in the vaccine
(4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, 23F)
The serotypes included responsible for
85% of pneumococcal diseases and
70% of IPD in the States
– 65-80% in Western Industrialized countries (WHO
position paper)
• These saccharides are coupled to a nontoxic
mutant of diphtheria toxin and the protein
CRM197.

Immunogenicity
• 212 healthy 2-month-old infants from four
communities across US
• After 3 doses of vaccine, increasing trend of
the geometric mean antibody concentrations
(GMCs) were demonstrated
• Administration of the 4th dose demonstrating
a brisk anamnestic response

Safety Information
• In clinical trials (n=18,168), the most
frequently reported adverse events included:
• injection site reactions
• fever ( 38ºC/100.4ºF)
• Irritability, drowsiness, restless sleep
• decreased appetite
• vomiting, diarrhea
• Rash
• …………….rate similar to other vaccines
• Contraindication: Hypersensitivity to any
vaccine component, including diphtheria
toxoid
Pharmacoeconomic
evaluation
• Economic evaluation of routine Prevenar
vaccination programs have been published
from 11 countries:
– Australia, Canada, Finland, Germany, Italy,
Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Switzerland, UK and
US
• Routine immunization with Prevenar has
been shown to significantly reduce the overall
cost associated with treatment of
pneumococcal disease
Future Direction
• Surveillance of Hong Kong Data in order to
calculate the Economic Cost Benefited from
introducing the Pneumococcal Conjugate
Vaccine into the Universal Immunization
Program
• Surveillance of isolates from cases of IPD and
serotype to assist in monitoring changes in
serotype distribution following introduction of
vaccination programs
