IMMUNOGENIC COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING CONJUGATED CAPSULE SUGARIDE ANTIGENS AND THEIR APPLICATION

摘要

The present invention relates to new immunogenic compositions comprising conjugatedStreptococcus pneumoniaecapsular saccharide antigens (glycoconjugates) and uses thereof. Immunogenic compositions of the present invention will typically comprise at least one glycoconjugate from aS.pneumoniaeserotype not found in Prevnar, Synflorix and/or Prevnar 13. The invention also relates to vaccination of human subjects, in particular infants and elderly, against pneumoccocal infections using said novel immunogenic compositions.
