This study evaluated the immunogenicity of a double dose of the seasonal virosomal-adjuvanted influenza vaccine (Inflexal V, Crucell, The Netherlands) in 65 previously unvaccinated children aged less than 3 years: 43 received double doses (two doses of 0.50 mL 4 weeks apart) and 22 standard doses (two doses of 0.25 mL 4 weeks apart). Both treatments evoked a response that satisfied the EMEA criteria for adequate immunogenicity for all three vaccine strains, but the double dose had a significantly greater effect on all of the studied parameters of humoral and cell-mediated immune response (p < 0.05). This result was achieved without any increase in the incidence of local and systemic adverse events. This means that doubling the dose of the virosomal-adjuvanted influenza vaccine (i.e. administering the same dose as that usually given to older children) effectively and safely increases the immune response to inactivated influenza vaccine in unprimed children aged less than 3 years. 相似文献

This randomized, double-blind study evaluated concomitant administration of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV) in adults aged ≥65 years who were naïve to 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine. Patients (N = 1160) were randomized 1:1 to receive PCV13 + TIV followed by placebo, or Placebo + TIV followed by PCV13 at 0 and 1 months, with blood draws at 0, 1, and 2 months. Slightly lower pneumococcal serotype-specific anticapsular polysaccharide immunoglobulin G geometric mean concentrations were observed with PCV13 + TIV relative to PCV13. Concomitant PCV13 + TIV demonstrates acceptable immunogenicity and safety compared with either agent given alone. 相似文献

BackgroundThe potency of live viral vaccines decreases over time. We compared the immunogenicity and safety of GSK measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (MMR-RIT) formulations at two different potencies with that of the commercially-available MMR II formulation.MethodsIn this phase III observer-blind clinical study (NCT01681992), 4516 healthy children aged 12–15 months were randomized (1:1:1 ratio) to receive one dose of MMR-RIT at the minimum potency used for this study (MMR-RIT-Min) or MMR-RIT at the second lowest potency used for this study (MMR-RIT-Med), or control MMR II vaccine. A second dose (MMR-RIT or MMR II) was administered 42 days after the first. The study had 10 co-primary objectives to evaluate MMR-RIT versus MMR II immunogenicity via a hierarchical procedure. Anti-measles and anti-rubella antibodies were measured by ELISA and anti-mumps antibodies by ELISA and unenhanced plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT).ResultsEach formulation induced immune responses to all vaccine antigens after each MMR dose. While the primary objectives for MMR-RIT-Min were not met, MMR-RIT-Med induced immune responses as measured by ELISA against the three vaccine antigens that met pre-specified non-inferiority criteria. The immune response following MMR-RIT-Med against mumps measured by PRNT failed the non-inferiority criterion for seroresponse rate: the 97.5% confidence interval lower limit (−10.94%) was beyond the pre-defined limit of −10%. Immune responses were comparable among groups post-dose 2. No safety concerns were identified, and MMR-RIT and MMR II vaccines had similar reactogenicity and safety profiles.ConclusionsOne dose of MMR-RIT formulation with lower potency (MMR-RIT-Med) induced a non-inferior immune response compared to commercial MMR II vaccine, measured by ELISA in one-year-old children. Non-inferiority was not demonstrated in terms of immune response against mumps virus measured by unenhanced PRNT, although the difference was of uncertain clinical relevance. After the second dose, immune responses were comparable among the MMR-RIT and MMR II groups. 相似文献

BackgroundThis study evaluated immunogenicity and safety of the adjuvanted recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) when the first dose was co-administered with the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) in adults aged ≥50 years.MethodsIn this open label, multi-center study (NCT02045836), participants were randomized 1:1 to receive either the first dose of RZV and PPSV23, co-administered at Day 0 and the second dose of RZV at Month 2 (Co-Ad group), or PPSV23 at Day 0, the first dose of RZV at Month 2 and second dose of RZV at Month 4 (Control group). Co-primary objectives were the RZV vaccine response rate (VRR) in the Co-Ad group and the non-inferiority of the antibody responses to RZV and PPSV23 in the Co-Ad group compared to the Control group. Reactogenicity and safety were also assessed.Results865 participants were vaccinated (Co-Ad: 432, Control: 433). VRRs to RZV were >98% in both groups. Humoral immune responses to co-administration of RZV and PPSV23 were non-inferior to sequential administration. All three co-primary immunogenicity objectives were met. Solicited local symptoms after the first RZV dose were reported by similar percentages of participants in both groups. Solicited general symptoms were more frequently reported when the first dose of RZV and PPSV23 were co-administered. No differences were apparent between groups after the second RZV dose.ConclusionsNo immunologic interference was observed between RZV and PPSV23 when co-administered in adults ≥50 years. No safety concerns were raised. 相似文献

Background
Recombinant baculovirus-expressed hemagglutinin (rHA [FluBlok®]) influenza vaccine is unique in avoiding production in eggs and its rapid production capability.Objective
Compare the safety and immunogenicity of trivalent FluBlok to egg-grown trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) in children.Methods
Healthy children were randomized to receive two doses of study vaccines. TIV (7.5 μg HA/antigen), FluBlok-22.5 (22.5 μg rHA/antigen), or FluBlok-45 (45 μg rHA/antigen) were given to 115 children ages 6–35 months. TIV (15 μg HA/antigen) or FluBlok-45 was given to 41 children ages 36–59 months. Safety and reactogenicity data were collected post-vaccination. Serum hemagglutination-inhibition antibody (HI) titers were measured before and 28 days after vaccination.Results
No serious vaccine-related adverse events occurred and reactogenicity events to equal volumes of TIV or FluBlok were generally similar. However, in the younger children, selected local and systemic symptoms were recorded significantly more frequently to 0.5 mL FluBlok-45 than to 0.25 mL doses of either the FluBlok-22.5 or 7.5 μg TIV vaccines. In the younger children, the immunogenicity to TIV was generally significantly superior to FluBlok. Serologic responses to FluBlok were higher in the older children than the younger group, but were still somewhat lower compared to TIV.Conclusion
These data suggests that FluBlok is as safe but less immunogenic than similar volumes of TIV, particularly in the youngest children. The immunogenicity data is the converse of what has been observed in adults. Further studies examining the immunogenicity of FluBlok in older children are warranted. 相似文献6.
Background
Vaccination is an effective strategy to prevent influenza. This observer-blind, randomized study in children 10–17 years of age assessed whether the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody responses elicited by H1N1/2009 vaccines adjuvanted with AS03 (an adjuvant system containing α-tocopherol and squalene in an oil-in-water emulsion) or without adjuvant, met the European regulatory immunogenicity criteria at Days 21 and 182.Methods
Three hundred and ten healthy children were randomized (3:3:3:5) to receive one dose of 3.75 μg hemagglutinin (HA) AS03A-adjuvanted vaccine, one or two doses of 1.9 μg HA AS03B-adjuvanted vaccine, or one dose of 15 μg HA pandemic vaccine. All children received a booster dose of the allocated vaccine at Day 182. Serum samples were tested for HI antibody response at Days 21, 42, 182 and 189.Results
All vaccination regimens elicited HI antibody responses that met the European regulatory criteria at Days 21 and 42. HI antibody responses fulfilling European regulatory criteria were still observed six months after the first vaccine dose in all study vaccines groups. Two doses of 1.9 μg HA AS03B-adjuvanted vaccine elicited the strongest HI antibody response throughout the study. The non-adjuvanted 15 μg HA vaccine elicited a lower HI antibody response than the AS03-adjuvanted vaccines. At Day 189, the European regulatory criteria were met for all vaccines with baseline HI antibody titers as reference. An anamnestic response for all vaccines was suggested at Day 189, based on the rapid increase in HI antibody geometric mean titers (1.5–2.5-fold increase). Injection site reactogenicity was higher following the AS03-adjuvanted vaccines compared with the non-adjuvanted vaccine. No safety concerns were identified for any study vaccine.Conclusion
All study vaccines elicited HI antibody responses that persisted at purported protective levels through six months after vaccination and fulfilled the European regulatory criteria. 相似文献7.

BackgroundEnterovirus A71 (EV-A71) infection can cause severe debilitating complications and even death in young children. The immunogenicity and safety of an inactivated whole EV-A71 virus vaccine were assessed in children 2 months to 6 years of age.MethodsThis was an open-label, multi-center and randomized phase IIb study, which divided into part A and B. In part A, children 36 months to 6 years of age were enrolled and randomized into 3 groups, receiving 0.5 μg total viral protein (TP) with adjuvant Al(OH)3, 1.0 μg TP with Al(OH)3 or 1.0 μg TP only. Two doses of vaccines were administered at a 28-day interval and blood was taken before immunization, at week 4, 8, 28 and 52 (optional) for virus neutralization assay. Safety profiles were also monitored. After safety profiles had shown no concerns, children 2 months to 35 months of age (part B) were subsequently enrolled following the same protocol.ResultsA total of 135 children completed two doses of immunization, including 58 in part A and 77 in part B. Both adjuvanted 0.5 μg and 1.0 μg TP elicited significant raise of neutralizing antibody titers and seroconversion rate was up to 93.75–100.0% after 2 doses of immunization. Adjuvanted 1.0 μg TP induced higher titers of neutralizing antibodies than adjuvanted 0.5 μg TP. By contrast, non-adjuvanted 1.0 μg TP was not immunogenic. No major adverse events were reported.ConclusionsThis EV-A71 vaccine containing adjuvant is immunogenic and safe in children 2 months to 6 years of age.Clinical Trials Registration. NCT03268083. 相似文献

Background
Alternative methods for influenza vaccine production are needed to ensure adequate supplies.Methods
Healthy adults 50-64 years were assigned randomly to receive one intramuscular injection of trivalent recombinant hemagglutinin (rHA) or U.S. licensed trivalent inactivated vaccine (TIV) containing H1, H3 and B antigens (Ag) derived from 2007 to 2008 influenza virus strains A/Solomon Islands/03/2006 (H1N1), A/Wisconsin/67/2005 (H3N2), and B/Malaysia/2506/2004. Each rHA dose contained 45 μg HA/strain of the 2007-2008 FDA-recommended Ag vs. 15 μg/strain for TIV. Antibody (Ab) responses were measured using a hemagglutination-inhibition (HAI) assay at baseline and 28 days post-vaccination. Respiratory samples for viral culture were collected from subjects with influenza-like illness (ILI) during the 2007-2008 season in the U.S.Results
601 subjects were enrolled. Vaccines were well tolerated. Seroconversion (the percentage of subjects with either (a) a pre-vaccination HAI titer ≤10 and a post-vaccination HAI titer ≥40 or (b) a pre-vaccination titer ≥10 and a minimum four-fold rise in post-vaccination HAI antibody titer) in the TIV and rHA groups, respectively, was obtained in 66% vs. 72% for H1; 44% vs. 61% for H3; and 41% vs. 41% for B. Proportions achieving titers ≥40 were 96% vs. 96% for H1, 75% vs. 85% for H3, and 94% vs. 93% vs. B. Geometric mean titer ratios at day 28 (TIV/rHA) were 0.77 for H1; 0.58 for H3; and 1.05 for B, respectively. ILI frequencies were low and similar in both groups.Conclusions
Both vaccines were safe and immunogenic. Ab responses vs. H1 and H3 Ags were significantly higher in the rHA group, with similar responses to B. Furthermore, the FluBlok group had a statistically significantly higher seroconversion rate against influenza A/H3N2 compared to the TIV group. 相似文献9.

This study compares the immunogenicity and safety of a single dose of a new meningococcal A conjugate vaccine (PsA-TT, MenAfriVac™, Serum Institute of India Ltd., Pune) against the meningococcal group A component of a licensed quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PsACWY, Mencevax ACWY®, GSK, Belgium) 28 days after vaccination in Indian children. This double-blind, randomized, controlled study included 340 Indian children aged 2–10 years enrolled from August to October 2007; 169 children received a dose of PsA-TT while 171 children received a dose of PsACWY. Intention-to-treat analysis showed that 95.2% of children in PsA-TT group had a ≥4-fold response in serum bactericidal titers (rSBA) 28 days post vaccination as compared to 78.2% in the PsACWY group. A significantly higher rSBA GMT (11,209, 95%CI 9708–12,942) was noted in the PsA-TT group when compared to PsACWY group (2838, 95%CI 2368–3401). Almost all children in both vaccine groups had a ≥4-fold response in group A-specific IgG concentration but the IgG GMC was significantly greater in the PsA-TT group (89.1 μg/ml, 95%CI 75.5–105.0) when compared to the PsACWY group (15.3 μg/ml, 95%CI 12.3–19.2). Local and systemic reactions during the 4 days after immunization were similar for both vaccine groups except for tenderness (30.2% in PsA-TT group vs 12.3% in PsACWY group). None of the adverse events or serious adverse events was related to the study vaccines. We conclude that MenAfriVac™ is well tolerated and significantly more immunogenic when compared to a licensed polysaccharide vaccine, in 2-to-10-year-old Indian children. 相似文献

BackgroundWe assessed the risk of spontaneous abortion (SA) after inadvertent exposure to HPV-16/18-vaccine during pregnancy using an observational cohort design.MethodsThe study population included women aged 15–25 years registered with the Clinical Practice Research Datalink General Practice OnLine Database in the United Kingdom (UK), who received at least one HPV-16/18-vaccine dose between 1st September 2008 and 30th June 2011. Exposed women had the first day of gestation between 30 days before and 45 days (90 days for the extended exposure period) after any HPV-16/18-vaccine dose. Non-exposed women had the first day of gestation 120 days–18 months after the last dose. SA defined as foetal loss between weeks 1 and 23 of gestation (UK definition).ResultsThe frequency of SA was 11.6% (among 207 exposed) and 9.0% (632 non-exposed), women: hazard ratio (HR) adjusted for age at first day of gestation 1.30 (95% confidence interval: 0.79–2.12). Sensitivity analysis per number of doses administered (−30 to +45-day risk period) showed a HR for SA of 1.11 (0.64–1.91) for 18/178 women with one dose during the risk period versus 2.55 (1.09–5.93) in 6/29 women with two doses within a 4–5 weeks period. The proportion of pre-term/full-term/postterm deliveries, small/large for gestational age infants, and birth defects was not significantly different between exposed and non-exposed women. Results were consistent using a (United States) SA definition of foetal loss between weeks 1–19 and/or the extended risk period.ConclusionThere was no evidence of an increased risk of SA and other adverse pregnancy outcomes in young women inadvertently HPV-16/18-vaccinated around gestation. Nevertheless, women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant are advised to postpone vaccination until completion of pregnancy. 相似文献

IntroductionIntradermal bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination by needle-free, disposable-syringe jet injectors (DSJI) is an alternative to the Mantoux method using needle and syringe (NS). We compared the safety and immunogenicity of BCG administration via the DSJI and NS techniques in adults and newborn infants at the South African Tuberculosis Vaccine Initiative (SATVI) research site in South Africa.MethodThirty adults and 66 newborn infants were randomized 1:1 to receive intradermal BCG vaccine (0.1 mL in adults; 0.05 mL in infants) via DSJI or NS. Wheal diameter (mm) and skin fluid deposition at the site of injection (SOI) were measured immediately post-vaccination. Adverse events and SOI reactogenicity data were collected 30 min and 1, 2, 4, and 12 weeks after vaccination for adults and at 30 min and 4, 10, and 14 weeks for infants. Blood was collected in infants at 10 and 14 weeks to assess BCG-specific T-cell immune responses.ResultsMore infant BCG vaccinations by DSJI deposited >5 μL fluid on the skin surface, compared to NS (49% versus 9%, p = 0.001). However, all 12 infant vaccinations that did not produce any SOI wheal occurred in the NS group (36%, p < 0.001). Median wheal diameter, in participants for which an SOI wheal formed, did not differ significantly between groups in infants (combined 3.0 mm IQR 2.0 to 4.0, p = 0.59) or in adults (combined 9.0 mm IQR 7.0 to 10.0, p = 0.13). Adverse events were similar between study arms. Proportion of participants with BCG scars after three months did not differ in adults (combined 97%, p = 0.67) or infants (combined 62%, p = 0.13). Frequencies of BCG-specific clusters of differentiation 4 (CD4) and clusters of differentiation 8 (CD8) T-cells co-expressing IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-2, and/or IL-17 were not different in the DSJI and NS groups.ConclusionBCG vaccination of newborn infants via DSJI was more likely to deliver an appropriate intradermal wheal at the SOI as compared to NS, despite leaving more fluid on the surface of the skin. Safety, reactogenicity, and antigen-specific T-cell immune responses did not differ between DSJI and NS techniques. 相似文献

IntroductionWe compared co-administration versus separate administration of an inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine (IIV4) with a 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) in adults at high risk of complications of influenza and pneumococcal infection.MethodsThis phase III, placebo-controlled, observer-blind trial (NCT02218697) was conducted in France and Belgium during the 2014–2015 influenza season. Adults ≥50 years of age meeting their country’s vaccination recommendations were randomized 1:1 to co-administration or separate administration. Immunogenicity was assessed by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titers for IIV4 and 22F-inhibition ELISA for PPV23. Co-primary objectives were to demonstrate non-inferiority of co-administration versus separate administration in terms of geometric mean titer (GMT) ratio for each influenza strain in the IIV4 and geometric mean concentration (GMC) ratio for six pneumococcal serotypes (1, 3, 4, 7F, 14, 19A) in the PPV23 in the per-protocol cohort (N = 334).ResultsThe study met its co-primary objectives, with the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval of the GMT and GMC ratios (separate administration over co-administration) being ≤2.0 for all four antigens of the IIV4 and the six pre-selected serotypes of the PPV23, respectively. Immunogenicity of the IIV4 and PPV23 was similar regardless of administration schedule. In a post hoc analysis pooling participants ≥60 years of age from the co-administration and separate administration groups, IIV4 immunogenicity was similar in higher risk adults with comorbidities (diabetes; respiratory, heart, kidney, liver, or neurological diseases; morbid obesity) versus those without. Both vaccines had an acceptable safety and reactogenicity profile; pain was the most common symptom, occurring more often with co-administration than separate administration.ConclusionThe IIV4 and PPV23 can be co-administered without reducing antibody responses reflecting protection against influenza or pneumococcal disease. Co-administration of PPV23 at the annual influenza vaccination visit may improve uptake. Comorbidities had no impact on IIV4 immunogenicity, supporting its value in older adults with chronic medical conditions.Clinical Trial Registry Number: NCT02218697. 相似文献

BackgroundHuman papillomavirus (HPV) infections were the main cause of anogenital cancers and warts. HPV 6/11/16/18 vaccines provide protection against the high-risk types of HPV responsible for 70% of cervical cancers and 90% of genital warts. This randomized, blinded, non-inferiority phase III trial was to determine whether immunogenicity and tolerability would be non-inferior among women after receiving two novel 4- and 9-valent HPV vaccines (4vHPV, HPV 6/11/16/18; 9vHPV, HPV 6/11/16/18/31/33/45/52/58) compared with those receiving Gardasil 4 (4-valent).Methods1680 females between 20 and 45 years were randomized in a 2:1:1 ratio to 20–26, 27–35, or 36–45 y groups. Subjects then equally assigned to receive 4vHPV, 9vHPV or Gardasil 4 (control) vaccine at months 0, 2, and 6. End points included non-inferiority of HPV-6/11/16/18 antibodies for 4vHPV versus control, and 9vHPV versus control and safety. The immunogenicity non-inferiority was pre-defined as the lower bound of 95% confidence interval (CI) of seroconversion rate (SCR) difference > ?10% and the lower bound of 95% CI of geometric mean antibody titer (GMT) ratio > 0.5.ResultsAmong the three vaccine groups, more than 99% of the participants seroconverted to all 4 HPV types. The pre-specified statistical non-inferiority criterion for the immunogenicity hypothesis was met: all the lower bounds of 95% CIs on SCR differences exceeded ?10% for each vaccine HPV type and the corresponding lower bounds of 95% CIs for GMT ratios > 0.5. Across vaccination groups, the most common vaccination reaction were injection-site adverse events (AEs), including pain, swelling, and redness. General and serious AEs were similar in the three groups. There were no deaths.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that the novel 4- and 9-valent HPV vaccination was highly immunogenic and generally well tolerated, both of which were non-inferior to Gardasil 4 in immunogenicity and safety. 相似文献

BackgroundNo data on the safety and efficacy of a live attenuated influenza vaccine in China have ever been reported.MethodsAt a site of a phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in eastern China, eligible healthy children aged 3–17 years underwent randomization to receive live attenuated vaccine or placebo at a ratio of 1:1. The primary objective of the study was the prevention of laboratory-confirmed influenza illness during the surveillance period, starting on day 15 after vaccination.ResultsA total of 2000 participants were enrolled, with 998 receiving the vaccine and 1001 receiving placebo. Sixty-four cases of influenza-like illness were observed, of which, 44 were laboratory-confirmed (12 in vaccine group versus 32 in placebo group). Vaccine efficacy was 62.5% (95%CI: 27.6–80.6) against all types of influenza and 63.3% (95%CI: 27.5–81.5) against influenza H3N2 illness. 11 severe adverse events reported (7 in LAIV group versus 4 in placebo group) were all deemed to be non-vaccine-related. Adverse events occurred in 412 (41.3%) participants in the vaccine group versus 389 (38.9%; p = 0.274) participants in the placebo group. Significant increase incidence of fever was observed in participants in the vaccine group, especially in those aged 3–9 years.ConclusionsThe live attenuated influenza vaccine showed good efficacy and safety among 3- to 17-year-olds children during the 2016–2017 season at a site in eastern China.Clinical Trial Registry Number: NCT02964065. 相似文献

BackgroundThis open-label, single-arm, phase 3 study evaluated safety and immunogenicity of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in pneumococcal vaccine-naive Japanese individuals aged 6–64 years at increased risk of pneumococcal disease (PD).MethodsParticipants received 1 PCV13 dose. Reactogenicity events were recorded for 7 days (individuals aged 6- to 17-year-old) or 14 days (individuals aged 18 to 64 years old) postvaccination. Adverse events (AEs) were collected for 1 month postvaccination. Opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) and anticapsular immunoglobulin G (IgG) geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) were measured for vaccine serotypes before and 1 month postvaccination. Post hoc analyses compared immunogenicity in participants categorized as at-risk (immunocompetent but having chronic medical conditions associated with increased PD risk) or high-risk (immunocompromised due to diseases/conditions and/or medications).Results206 participants aged 6- to 17-year-old (n = 53) and 18 to 64 years old (n = 153) completed the study. Reactogenicity events were generally mild to moderate in severity. AEs were reported in 16% (33/206) of participants; 1.0% (2/206) were severe. Six AEs were vaccine-related; most were associated with local reactions. No serious AEs occurred. Circulating antibody levels for all 13 serotypes increased postvaccination. OPA geometric mean fold rises (GMFRs) from prevaccination to 1 month postvaccination were 5.5–61.7; lower limits of the 2-sided, 95% CI were > 1 for all serotypes. IgG GMFRs were consistent with OPA analyses. In post hoc analyses, 55.8% (115/206) and 44.2% (91/206) of participants were categorized as at risk and at high risk of PD, respectively; OPA GMFRs from prevaccination to 1 month postvaccination were 3.9–635.1, with lower limits of the 2-sided 95% CIs > 1 for all 13 serotypes across these risk groups; IgG GMFRs were consistent with OPA analyses.ConclusionsPCV13 was well tolerated and immunogenic in Japanese individuals aged 6–64 years considered at increased risk of PD. Results were broadly comparable with past PCV13 studies in other Japanese and non-Japanese populations.Registration number: NCT03571607; JapicCTI-184024. 相似文献
