Title
Participants With GVHD: Percentage of Participants With a Vaccine-related Serious Adverse Event Following Dose 4 With V114 or Prevnar 13™
Description
This end point applies to participants who developed GVHD within 12 months of HSCT and received V114 or Prevnar 13™ as vaccine dose 4. An SAE is an AE that is life-threatening, requires or prolongs an existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, is a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or is another important medical event deemed such by medical or scientific judgment. The percentage of participants with a vaccine-related SAE following dose 4 with V114 or Prevnar 13™ through completion of study was reported.
Time Frame
Up to 6 months after the fourth V114 or Prevnar 13™ vaccination (12 months after HSCT and approximately 6 to 15 months after Day 1)
Title
Geometric Mean Titer of Serotype-specific Opsonophagocytic Activity at 30 Days Following Dose 3 With V114 or Prevnar 13™ (Day 90)
Description
The GMT of serotype-specific OPA for the serotypes contained in V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) was determined using a multiplexed opsonophagocytic assay.
Time Frame
Up to Day 90 (30 days after the Day 60 vaccinations with V114 or Prevnar 13™)
Title
Percentage of Participants With Geometric Mean Fold Rises (GMFR) ≥4 in Serotype-specific IgG at 30 Days Following Dose 3 With V114 or Prevnar 13™ (Day 90)
Description
The GMFR of serotype-specific IgG for the serotypes contained in V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) was determined using an electrochemiluminescence assay.
Time Frame
Day 1 (Baseline) and Day 90 (30 days after the Day 60 vaccinations with V114 or Prevnar 13™)
Title
Percentage of Participants With GMFR ≥4 in Serotype-specific OPA at 30 Days Following Dose 3 With V114 or Prevnar 13™ (Day 90)

Activity for the 15 serotypes contained in V114 vaccine were determined using a Multiplex Opsonophagocytic Assay. The GMFR of serotype-specific OPA for the serotypes contained in V114 (13 serotypes shared with Prevnar 13™ and 2 serotypes unique to V114) was determined using multiplexed opsonophagocytic assay.
