Abstract We conducted the first pooled analysis of two randomised controlled vaccine trials on experimental pneumococcal serotype 6B carriage, registered in Malawi (PACTR202008503507113) and the UK (ISRCTN45340436). This post-hoc exploratory study examined the sex-based differences in carriage, vaccine efficacy and vaccine-induced responses. PCV-13 reduced colonisation by 76% (p < 0.001) with non-significant interaction by sex (RR = 1.549, p = 0.413).
