Experimental Treatment

Group I: No active therapyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Age ≥18 years and CLL/SLL (WHO criteria). We excluded patients with known HIV or primary immune deficiency disorder, known active progression of CLL/SLL, active therapy, treating physician intent to initiate CLL/SLL therapy within ≤2 months, prior cytotoxic chemotherapy within ≤1 year, CD20 monoclonal Ab within ≤6 months, or any prior bendamustine or fludarabine. We excluded patients who received PCV13 within ≤2 years, or within 2-5 years with nonprotective titers for ≥50% of PCV13-specific S. pneumonia IgG titers.

Group II: BTK inhibitor therapy (interrupted)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Age ≥18 years, CLL/SLL (WHO criteria), and active therapy with a BTK inhibitor which is interrupted at time of vaccination. We excluded patients with known HIV or primary immune deficiency disorder, known active progression of CLL/SLL, prior cytotoxic chemotherapy within ≤1 year, CD20 monoclonal Ab within ≤6 months, or any prior bendamustine or fludarabine. We excluded patients who received PCV13 within ≤2 years, or within 2-5 years with nonprotective titers for ≥50% of PCV13-specific S. pneumonia IgG titers.

Group III: BTK inhibitor therapy (continued)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Age ≥18 years, CLL/SLL (WHO criteria), and active therapy with a BTK inhibitor which is continued through vaccination. We excluded patients with known HIV or primary immune deficiency disorder, known active progression of CLL/SLL, prior cytotoxic chemotherapy within ≤1 year, CD20 monoclonal Ab within ≤6 months, or any prior bendamustine or fludarabine. We excluded patients who received PCV13 within ≤2 years, or within 2-5 years with nonprotective titers for ≥50% of PCV13-specific S. pneumonia IgG titers.
