Summary

This study tests a new pneumococcal vaccine (PG4) in healthy children aged 15 months to 18 years. About 1,200 participants will receive either the new vaccine or the current Prevnar 20. Researchers will compare safety and immune response over 6 months. The goal is to see if the new vaccine provides better protection against serious infections like pneumonia and meningitis.
