32 Pneumovax 23 (23PPSV) Advantages Covers 23 serotypes Prevents Invasive Pneumococcal Disease (IPD) Safe Disadvantages (polysaccharide vaccine, B-cell only) Poor response in older pts., immunocompromised and in children < 2 yrs of age No immunologic memory No booster effect on revaccination Lower response after revaccination, hyporesponsiveness No, or very limited effect on carriage (no herd immunity) POOR, prevention of Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP)
33 Effectiveness of PPSV23 in the General Population of 50 years of Age and Older: (Meta-analysis) Vaccine effectiveness for PPSV23 in preventing IPD was 50% - 54%...GOOD Vaccine effectiveness for PPSV23 in preventing CAP 4% -17%...POOR Kraicer-Melamed H, et al. Vaccine, 2016; 34 (13):
34 NACI RECOMMENDATIONS (UPDATED 2016) PCV13 for ADULTS: - Immunocompromised years of age

46 NACI recommendation for pneumococcal vaccination for high-risk groups at-a-glance Risk Group Adults with hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT) PCV13 Recommended PPSV23 Recommended PPSV23 Revaccination at 5 yrs Adults with HIV Adults with immunosuppressive conditions including: Asplenia (anatomical or functional) Sickle cell disease or other hemoglobinopathies Congenital immunodeficiencies* Immunosuppressive therapy Malignant neoplasms including leukemia and lymphoma Solid organ or islet cell transplant (candidate or recipient) * Involving any part of the immune system, including B-lymphocyte (humoral) immunity, T-lymphocyte (cell) mediated immunity, complement system (properdin, or factor D deficiencies), or phagocytic functions. Including use of longterm corticosteroids, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, post-organ-transplant therapy, and certain disease modifying antirheumatic drugs.

51 Conclusions - Risk factors for influenza and pneumococcal disease are similar - S. pneumoniae infections (CAP and IPD) common - Patients 65+ yrs, immunocompromised, cormorbid diseases greatest risk - Pneumococcal Vaccines - PCV13 (IPD and CAP) - PPSV23 (IPD)
52 Conclusions - Who to Vaccinate: - Influenza all 6 mos +, HD for PPSV23 (adults with comordid conditions, immunocompromised, 65yrs) - PCV13 (immunocompromised, 65yrs) - How to Vaccinate: - PCV13 first, then 8 weeks PPSV23 Guidelines changing
