Types of Pneumococcal Vaccines:
Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines (PCVs):
- PCV15 (Vaxneuvance®): Protects against 15 types of S. pneumoniae.
- PCV20: Protects against 20 types and is recommended for adults 65 and older, as well as younger adults with certain health conditions.
Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPSV23):
Protects against 23 types of S. pneumoniae and is recommended for adults 65 and older and at-risk adults aged 19-64.
Effectiveness: Clinical tials show that these vaccines greatly reduce the risk of serious pneumococcal diseases. This happens with PCV15 and PCV20 working, as well as earlier vaccines like PCV13.
COVID-19 Vaccine
We are also testing different COVID-19 vaccines. These vaccines have been shown to be very effective in preventing COVID-19. They also reduce the severity of the illness in vaccinated people.
Key Points:
- COVID-19 vaccines can be given alongside other vaccines. For example, the Pneumococcal vaccine increases protection without affecting safety.
- Vaccination is essential for controlling the spread of COVID-19 and protecting vulnerable groups.
Norovirus Vaccine
We are conducting clinical trials for Norovirus, which is a leading cause of stomach and intestinal illness. That’s why vaccines are key to preventing outbreaks, especially in high-risk places like healthcare facilities and cruise ships.
- Current Research: Ongoing trials are testing the safety and effectiveness of these vaccines. So they can provide strong protection against Norovirus.
How to Participate in Our Clinical Trials

- Eligibility: Requirements for participants vary depending on age, health, and the specific vaccine trial. If you are interested, contact us for more details about eligibility and how to enroll.
Frequently Asked Questions
What vaccines are you currently testing?
Our vaccine clinical trials aim to improve public health by optimizing the efficiency and safety of new vaccines. We are currently testing vaccines for pneumococcal disease, COVID-19, and Norovirus.
What types of pneumococcal vaccines do you study?
Pneumococcal vaccines help prevent infections caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, which can lead to pneumonia, meningitis, and bloodstream infections. Types include conjugate vaccines such as PCV15 (Vaxneuvance) and PCV20, as well as the polysaccharide vaccine PPSV23, which protects against 23 types and is recommended for adults 65 and older and at-risk adults aged 19–64.
What should I know about the COVID-19 vaccine study?
We are testing different COVID-19 vaccines, which have been shown to be very effective at preventing COVID-19 and reducing the severity of illness. These vaccines can be given alongside other vaccines, such as the pneumococcal vaccine, to increase protection without affecting safety.
What about the Norovirus vaccine?
Norovirus is a leading cause of stomach and intestinal illness, so vaccines are key to preventing outbreaks, especially in high-risk places like healthcare facilities and cruise ships. Our ongoing trials are testing the safety and effectiveness of these vaccines.
How can I participate in a vaccine trial?
We invite eligible participants to join our vaccine clinical trials. Requirements vary depending on age, health, and the specific vaccine trial, so the best next step is to contact us to see which study may be right for you.
