Evidence for the impact of different schedules on NP carriage in different settings was inconclusive, as it is confounded by factors including use of PCV7 before the introduction of PCV10/13, the PCV product used and differences in the baseline prevalence of carriage. Nevertheless, 2 studies in which PCV10 was used in the 2p+1 or 3p+0 schedules showed that both were effective in reducing vaccine-type NP carriage, with no significant difference; both studies were small and conducted in low-carriage settings.
