Rationale for Development of V116
4
 The burden of disease in adults remains high; IPD due to non -
vaccine serotypes has increased in adults. 
V116 being developed as a  population -specific  vaccine to prevent invasive 
disease and pneumonia in adults. 
V116 is designed to  complement PCV pediatric immunization 
programs.  PCV use in infants has significantly decreased the burden of 
disease in adults  through indirect protection .
Population -specific 
vaccinationUnmet medical need 
in adultsIndirect protection 
through pediatric vaccination
Complementary to
 pediatric PCVs
V116 is an adult specific  pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV)
IPD, invasive pneumococcal disease; PCV, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine; PCV13, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 13 -valent; PCV15  pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 15 -valent, PCV20, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 20 -valent.

15C is denoted here to represent the serotype protection proposed with deOAc15B as the molecular structures for deOAc15B and 15C are similar (Jones C, Lemercinier  X. 2005. Full NMR assignment and revised structure for the capsular polysaccharide from 
Streptococcus pneumoniae type 15B. Carbohydr  Res 340:403 –409.) •Includes 21 pneumococcal serotypes , 4µg/PnPs individually conjugated to CRM197 formulated without an adjuvant
•Single dose, 0.5mL pre-filled syringe , intramuscular injection for adults 18+
•The serotypes in V116 accounted for ~85% of IPD and the 8 unique serotypes accounted for  ~30% of IPD in US 
adults ≥65 years in 2019
•V116 is currently under Priority Review by the FDA for the prevention of IPD and pneumonia in adults  ≥18 years of 
age with target action date of June 17, 2024.

V116 Phase 3 Clinical Development Summary
35In adults ≥18 years of age, who are pneumococcal vaccine -naïve and vaccine 
experienced, with and without risk conditions:
•V116 elicits robust immune responses to all 21 serotypes contained in the vaccine
•V116 is noninferior to PCV20 for all common serotypes and superior to PCV20 for 10 of 11 
serotypes unique to V116 in pneumococcal vaccine -naïve adults ≥50 years of age.
•V116 is immunogenic in pneumococcal vaccine experienced adults , regardless of the prior 
vaccine received
•V116 is immunogenic when administered concomitantly with inactivated influenza vaccine .
•V116 is well -tolerated  with a safety profile generally comparable to currently licensed 
pneumococcal vaccines. 
V116 is the first adult specific PCV with the potential for broad public health impact through the prevention of invasive dis ease 
and pneumonia due to S. pneumoniae .
