description The use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines has affected the epidemiology and distribution of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> serotypes causing Invasive Pneumococcal Disease (IPD). The aim of this study was to analyze the evolution of the phenotypical profiles of antimicrobial susceptibility to penicillin (PEN) in all IPD strains isolated in Madrid, Spain, during 2007–2021. In total, 7133 invasive clinical isolates were characterized between 2007 and 2021. Levels of PENR and PNSSDR were 2.0% and 24.2%, respectively. In addition, 94.4% of all the PENR belonged to four serotypes, including 11A (33.6%), 19A (30.8%), 14 (20.3%) and 9V (9.8%). All the strains of serotype 11A, which is a non-PCV13 serotype, were detected after the year 2011. Serotypes 6C, 15A, 23B, 24F, 35B, 19F, 16F, 6B, 23F, 24B, 24A, 15F and a limited number of strains of serogroups 16 and 24 (non-typed at serotype level) were associated with PNSSDR (<i>p</i> < 0.05). PNSSDR strains of non-PCV13 serotypes 11A, 24F, 23B, 24B, 23A and 16F were more frequent from 2014 to 2021. The changes in <i>S. pneumoniae</i> serotype distribution associated with the use of conjugate vaccines had caused in our region the emergence of non-PCV13 pneumococcal strains with different PENR or PNSSDR patterns. The emergence of serotype 11A resistant to penicillin as the most important non-PCV13 serotype is a worrisome event with marked relevance from the clinical and epidemiological perspective.
