Phase I/II Clinical Trial of 26-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine

The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the 26 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in the population aged 2 months and above.

A single-center, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial design (Phase I/II) was used. In addition, according to the requirements in the approval letter of this product (2024LP01053), serum standards need to be established for the newly added types (24F, 35B). Therefore, a calibration group is set and an open study design is adopted.
