TL;DR: The heptavalent CRM197 pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was given to infants at 2, 4, 6 and 12 to 15 months of age in a randomized, double blind trial and was effective in reducing the risk of pneumonia in young children.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on otitis media.
TL;DR: In children followed up to 3.5 years, PCV provided a moderate amount of protection against ear infections while reducing frequent otitis media and tube procedures by greater amounts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Safety and immunogenicity of heptavalent pneumococcal CRM197 conjugate vaccine in infants and toddlers.

TL;DR: It is concluded that PNCRM7 vaccine was safe and immunogenic and when this vaccine was administered concurrently at the booster dose with DTaP and HbOC vaccines, lower antibody titers were noted for some of the antigens when compared with the antibody response when PNC RM7 was given separately.
Journal ArticleDOI
