Vaccine comprising
The present invention discloses an immunogenic composition comprising S. pneumoniae capsular saccharide conjugates from serotypes 19A and 19F wherein 19A is conjugated to a first bacterial toxoid and 19F is conjugated to a second bacterial toxoid. Vaccines, methods of making vaccines and uses of the vaccines are also described.
1. A multivalent immunogenic composition comprising Streptococcus pneumoniae capsular saccharide conjugates of serotypes 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F and 23F and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, wherein each of the serotypes 1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 22F and 23F is conjugated to a carrier protein independently selected from the group consisting of tetanus toxoid (TT), diphtheria toxoid (DT), CRM-197, fragment C of TT, PhtD, PhtBE or PhtDE fusions, detoxified pneumolysin and protein D, and wherein the 19A and 19F is each independently conjugated to diphtheria toxoid or to CRM197, wherein the 19A capsular saccharide is directly conjugated to the carrier protein.
