Overview
This clinical study is designed to evaluate an investigational pneumococcal vaccine named Pn-MAPS30plus. The vaccine is designed to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against various serotypes of the S. pneumoniae bacteria, potentially aiding the body in fighting infection upon exposure. Pn-MAPS30plus aims to broaden protection by covering more serotypes than currently licensed pneumococcal vaccines. The study's purpose is to determine whether the vaccine is safe, well-tolerated, and effective in inducing immune responses against S. pneumoniae.
