Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 1 (ST1) was an important cause of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) globally before the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) containing ST1 antigen. The Pneumococcal Serotype Replacement and Distribution Estimation (PSERENADE) project gathered ST1 IPD surveillance data from sites globally and aimed to estimate PCV10/13 impact on ST1 IPD incidence. We estimated ST1 IPD incidence rate ratios (IRRs) comparing the pre-PCV10/13 period to each post-PCV10/13 year by site using a Bayesian multi-level, mixed-effects Poisson regression and all-site IRRs using a linear mixed-effects regression (N = 45 sites). Following PCV10/13 introduction, the incidence rate (IR) of ST1 IPD declined among all ages. After six years of PCV10/13 use, the all-site IRR was 0.05 (95% credibility interval 0.04–0.06) for all ages, 0.05 (0.04–0.05) for <5 years of age, 0.08 (0.06–0.09) for 5–17 years, 0.06 (0.05–0.08) for 18–49 years, 0.06 (0.05–0.07) for 50–64 years, and 0.05 (0.04–0.06) for ≥65 years. PCV10/13 use in infant immunization programs was followed by a 95% reduction in ST1 IPD in all ages after approximately 6 years. Limited data availability from the highest ST1 disease burden countries using a 3 + 0 schedule constrains generalizability and data from these settings are needed.

Abstract Background Higher valency pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV10 and PCV13) replaced PCV7, and an updated global analysis of PCV impact on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) incidence is needed. We aimed to estimate the change in vaccine-type (VT), non-VT type and all-serotype (ST) IPD incidence following introduction of PCV10/13 among children &lt; 5 years of age. Methods IPD ST-specific incidence or cases and population denominators were obtained directly from surveillance sites. IPD incidence rate ratios (IRRs) for each site were estimated comparing the pre-any PCV incidence to each post-PCV10/13 year using Bayesian multi-level, mixed effects Poisson regressions. All-site weighted average IRRs were estimated using linear mixed-effects regressions. Results were stratified by product (PCV10 vs. PCV13) and years of prior PCV7 use (none, some [1-3 years or 4-5 years if &lt; 70% PCV uptake], or many [≥ 4 years with ≥ 70% uptake]). Results Analyses included 45 surveillance sites from 31 countries, primarily high-income (80%). Thirty surveillance sites had pre- and post-PCV data (PCV10: no prior PCV7=5 sites, some=2, many=2; PCV13: no prior PCV7=3, some=5, many=13). Five years after PCV10/13 introduction, the all-site IRRs in children &lt; 5 years were generally similar across products and prior PCV7 use strata for all-serotype IPD (range 0.23-0.41), PCV7 STs (0.01-0.13), PCV10non7 STs (1, 5, and 7F; 0.05-0.20), and ST6A (0.01-0.18). IRRs for ST19A were lower for PCV13 sites (range by PCV7 use: 0.09-0.31) than for PCV10 sites (1.1-1.4). ST3 IRRs were dynamic, differing by product at year 5 (range for PCV13 sites=0.86-1.02; PCV10 sites=1.55-1.78), but converging by year 7. NonPCV13 STs increased across all strata (range 1.9-2.6), except one strata with a single African site that declined. Figure 1. All-Site Weighted Average Incidence Rate Ratios, Children &lt;5&gt; * Total sites indicates number of sites with incidence rate data included and pre/post sites indicates number of sites with both pre- and post-PCV data to estimate IRRs for each outcome. ** Year 0 indicates the year of PCV10/13 introduction and year -1 indicates the last year of PCV7 use prior to PCV10/13 introduction. Conclusion All-serotype IPD in children &lt; 5 years declined following both PCV10 and PCV13 use, driven by substantial declines in VT serotypes and offset by increases in nonPCV13 STs. ST19A decreased among PCV13-sites, mitigating replacement disease occurring after PCV7 use, but increased, on average, among PCV10-sites. Changes in ST3 were heterogeneous, increasing in some sites and no change from baseline in others. Data from low-income and high-burden settings were limited. Disclosures Julia C.

Abstract Background The introduction of higher valency pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV10 and PCV13) has reduced invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) incidence. It is unknown whether the degree of reduction differs for pneumococcal meningitis, a small subset of pneumococcal disease but a major cause of severe childhood morbidity and mortality globally. We compared the impact of PCV10/13 on pneumococcal meningitis and all IPD by estimating the changes in incidence following the introduction of PCV10/13 among children &lt; 5 years of age. Methods Data on confirmed positive cases for pneumococcus in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were obtained directly from surveillance sites. PCV10/13 impact on all-serotype pneumococcal meningitis and all IPD were estimated using site-specific incidence rate ratios (IRRs) at each post-PCV10/13 year relative to the pre-PCV period, using Bayesian multi-level, mixed effects Poisson regression. All-site weighted average IRRs were estimated using linear mixed-effects regression. Results were stratified by product (PCV10 vs. PCV13) and amount of prior PCV7 use (none; some (1-3 years or 4-5 years with &lt; 70% uptake); or many (≥ 4 years with ≥ 70% uptake). Results 40 surveillance sites (9 PCV10, 31 PCV13) in 28 countries, primarily high-income (82%) that had both CSF and IPD data were included in analyses. CSF+ accounted for 9.0% of IPD cases (IQR across sites: 6.2%-15.6%). The rate and amount of decline was generally similar between meningitis and IPD across all strata. At 5 years after PCV10/13 introduction, the IRRs across PCV7-use strata were 0.28-0.32 for pneumococcal meningitis and 0.22-0.43 for all IPD at PCV10-using sites, and 0.27-0.41 and 0.21-0.32, respectively, for PCV13-using sites. Only one site from the African meningitis belt contributed eligible data, which lacked pre-PCV data to estimate IRRs, but incidence rate of both IPD and meningitis decreased following PCV introduction.

Conclusion Net declines in all-serotype IPD and CSF+ meningitis in children &lt; 5 years were similar on average for both PCV10 and PCV13. Data from low-income, high-burden, and meningitis-belt regions were limited. Disclosures Maria Deloria Knoll, PhD, Merck (Research Grant or Support)Pfizer (Research Grant or Support)

ABSTRACTStreptococcus pneumoniae remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) are effective but target only a fraction of the more than 90 pneumococcal serotypes. As a result, the introduction of PCVs has been followed by the emergence of non-vaccine serotypes. With higher-valency PCVs currently under development, there is a need to understand and predict patterns of serotype replacement to anticipate future changes. In this study, we evaluated patterns of change in serotype prevalence post-PCV introduction in Israel. We found that the assumption that non-vaccine serotypes increase by the same proportion overestimates changes in serotype prevalence in Jewish and Bedouin children. Furthermore, pre-vaccine prevalence was positively associated with increases in prevalence over the study period. From our analyses, serotypes 12F, 8, 16F, 33F, 9N, 7B, 10A, 22F, 24F, and 17F were estimated to have gained the most cases of invasive pneumococcal disease through serotype replacement in the Jewish population. However, this model also failed to quantify some additional cases gained, suggesting that changes in carriage in children alone may be insufficient to explain serotype replacement in disease. Understanding of serotype replacement is important as higher-valency vaccines are introduced.

Serotype-specific surveillance for invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) is essential for assessing the impact of 10- and 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV10/13). The Pneumococcal Serotype Replacement and Distribution Estimation (PSERENADE) project aimed to evaluate the global evidence to estimate the impact of PCV10/13 by age, product, schedule, and syndrome. Here we systematically characterize and summarize the global landscape of routine serotype-specific IPD surveillance in PCV10/13-using countries and describe the subset that are included in PSERENADE. Of 138 countries using PCV10/13 as of 2018, we identified 109 with IPD surveillance systems, 76 of which met PSERENADE data collection eligibility criteria. PSERENADE received data from most (n = 63, 82.9%), yielding 240,639 post-PCV10/13 introduction IPD cases. Pediatric and adult surveillance was represented from all geographic regions but was limited from lower income and high-burden countries. In PSERENADE, 18 sites evaluated PCV10, 42 PCV13, and 17 both; 17 sites used a 3 + 0 schedule, 38 used 2 + 1, 13 used 3 + 1, and 9 used mixed schedules. With such a sizeable and generally representative dataset, PSERENADE will be able to conduct robust analyses to estimate PCV impact and inform policy at national and global levels regarding adult immunization, schedule, and product choice, including for higher valency PCVs on the horizon.

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of pneumonia, meningitis, and bacteremia. Serotype 1 is rarely carried but is commonly associated with invasive pneumococcal disease, and in the African “meningitis belt,” it is prone to cause cyclical epidemics. We report the complete genome sequence of S. pneumoniae serotype 1 strain BVJ1JL, isolated in Malawi.

SUMMARYSerotype 1Streptococcus pneumoniaeis a cause of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) worldwide and has been associated with IPD outbreaks, while carriage is rarely detected in healthy adults or children. This study details an Australian multi-state and territory outbreak of serotype 1S. pneumoniaeIPD between 2010 and 2012. Molecular characterization demonstrated the outbreak was largely due to the clonal expansion of sequence type 306, MLVA type 261S. pneumoniaeserotype 1.

ABSTRACTSerotype replacement in invasive pneumococcal disease has been observed after widespread use of the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7). Replacement is dominated by penicillin-nonsusceptible serotype 19A in several countries. Antibiotic selection pressure has been proposed to interact with immunization, leading to rapid replacement. In Norway, where prescription of antibiotics is limited, post-PCV7 replacement by serotype 19A is dominated by penicillin-susceptible clones. Hence, serotype 19A replacement occurs, although it is not driven by antibiotic selection pressure.
