Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
All patients will receive a pre-vaccination blood sample and a nasal swab. All patients will then be administered single dose of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 0.5 mL intramuscular injection. All patients will then have a post-vaccination blood sample and a nasal swab 1 month later.
Intervention code [1] 286526 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
Comparator treatment being studied is the immunogenicity of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (13-valent) being given to oncology children on immunosuppressive treatment. All patients will be administered single dose of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 0.5 mL intramuscular injection.

There is a active control group of oncology children who had completed treatment within 12 months. This is not a "true" control group, since the current standard practice are to administer vaccinations when 6 months after treatment completion.

Therefore, both comparator groups will be compared to historical control groups, who are healthy infants with previous PCV7 given single dose of PCV13 (reference: Silfverdal SA et al Vaccine. 2013 Feb 18;31(9):1284-92.).
Control group
Active

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 288889 0
Determine the percentage of participants who achieve protective vaccine type serotype specific serum IgG antibody levels (>0.35 microgram/mL) following single dose administration of PCV13. (5 mL of venous blood will be taken). Method: microsphere based flow-cytometric assay.
Timepoint [1] 288889 0
1 month post vaccination
Primary outcome [2] 288890 0
Determine the percentage of participants who achieve protective vaccine type serotype specific opsonophagocytic assay titre >1:8 following single dose administration of PCV13. 5 mL of venous blood will be taken for serum, from which the multiplex opsonophagocytic assay is performed.
Timepoint [2] 288890 0
1 month post vaccination
Secondary outcome [1] 301247 0
Determine change in serotype-specific nasopharyngeal colonisation rate of Streptococcus pneumoniae following single dose of PCV 13. A nasopharyngeal swab will be taken and bacterial cultures performed. Bacterial identification, serotyping and antibiotic sensitivity will be tested.
Timepoint [1] 301247 0
1 month post vaccination
Secondary outcome [2] 301248 0
Determine persistence of antibody levels and OPA titres in patients receiving PCV13 booster vaccination during cancer treatment, by measuring serum levels of IgG antibody and opsonophagocytic assay. A 5 mL venous blood sample will be taken.
Timepoint [2] 301248 0
6 months post end of treatment.
