Summary

This study tests a new 21-valent pneumococcal vaccine (PCV21) in 100 children and teens aged 2 to 17 with sickle cell disease, who are at higher risk for serious infections. Researchers will compare PCV21 to a licensed vaccine to see if it is safe and helps the body produce protective antibodies. The goal is to find a better way to prevent pneumonia and other pneumococcal diseases in this vulnerable group.
