Since 2012, both the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) have been recommended for pneumococcal infection prevention in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Available literature data indicate that leukemic cells may respond to the presence of pathogens through specific Toll-like receptors (TLR).
