Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines

Immunology Letters, 1991
We have prepared conjugates of pneumococcal type 4 polysaccharides (PS4) or oligosaccharides to tetanus toxoid using the carbodiimide method. The use of a spacer, 6-aminohexanoic acid, resulted in higher incorporation of carrier protein. Conjugates contained up to 10% free polysaccharide, but no free protein.

Conjugated Heptavalent Pneumococcal Vaccine

The Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2002
OBJECTIVE: To review the immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety of the heptavalent conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (PCV7). DATA SOURCES: A MEDLINE search (1993–August 2001) of research limited to humans published in the English language was conducted. STUDY SELECTION: Findings from randomized, controlled, multicenter trials were reviewed.

The pneumococcal protein conjugate vaccines

The Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
to develop the first licensed pneumococcal vaccine, consisting of 14 purified capsular polysaccharide antigens representing the most prevalent disease-associated serotypes. Coverage was improved by the addition of 9 more purified polysaccharide antigens, resulting in the currently licensed 23valent pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide vaccine.

Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2001
Pneumococcal infections account for a significant proportion of bacterial infections in infants and children. The growing threat from pneumococci resistant to penicillin and other antimicrobials has led to increased pressure for the development of an effective vaccine.

The potential of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines for children

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2002
In contrast to earlier pneumococcal vaccines, conjugate vaccines hold promise for reducing pneumococcal morbidity and mortality in infants and young children. The first commercially available conjugate vaccine formulation, which targets seven serotypes, was licensed in the US and other countries in 2000; this vaccine is now part of routine infant ...
