Evaluation of age-related differences in the immunogenicity of a G9 H9N2 influenza vaccine.

ABSTRACT: Avian influenza A/H9N2 viruses can infect people and are viruses considered to be a potential pandemic threat. Prior studies with an inactivated G1 clade H9N2 vaccine reported that persons born before 1968 were more likely to have an immune response than younger subjects. We performed a randomized, double-blind trial to evaluate whether immune responses following immunization with an inactivated, unadjuvanted influenza G9 H9N2 vaccine prepared from A/chicken/Hong Kong/G9/97 virus were more frequent in persons born in 1964 or earlier (44-59 years) than in those born in 1970 or later (18-38 years). One hundred twenty one persons were randomized to receive two doses of either 7.5- or 30-mcg of hemagglutinin intramuscularly. Post-vaccination serum antibody responses as measured by hemagglutination inhibition and microneutralization were either similar in the two age cohorts or greater in the younger age group. Persons born before 1968 were not more likely to respond to a G9 H9N2 influenza vaccine than persons born in 1970 or later.

Project description:BackgroundExisting methods to measure influenza vaccine immunogenicity prohibit detailed analysis of epitope determinants recognized by immunoglobulins. The development of highly multiplex proteomics platforms capable of capturing a high level of antibody binding information will enable researchers and clinicians to generate rapid and meaningful readouts of influenza-specific antibody reactivity.MethodsWe developed influenza hemagglutinin (HA) whole-protein and peptide microarrays and validated that the arrays allow detection of specific antibody reactivity across a broad dynamic range using commercially available antibodies targeted to linear and conformational HA epitopes. We derived serum from blood draws taken from 76 young and elderly subjects immediately before and 28±7 days post-vaccination with the 2008/2009 trivalent influenza vaccine and determined the antibody reactivity of these sera to influenza array antigens.ResultsUsing linear regression and correcting for multiple hypothesis testing by the Benjamini and Hochberg method of permutations over 1000 resamplings, we identified antibody reactivity to influenza whole-protein and peptide array features that correlated significantly with age, H1N1, and B-strain post-vaccine titer as assessed through a standard microneutralization assay (p<0.05, q <0.2). Notably, we identified several peptide epitopes that were inversely correlated with regard to age and seasonal H1N1 and B-strain neutralization titer (p<0.05, q <0.2), implicating reactivity to these epitopes in age-related defects in response to H1N1 influenza. We also employed multivariate linear regression with cross-validation to build models based on age and pre-vaccine peptide reactivity that predicted vaccine-induced neutralization of seasonal H1N1 and H3N2 influenza strains with a high level of accuracy (84.7% and 74.0%, respectively).ConclusionOur methods provide powerful tools for rapid and accurate measurement of broad antibody-based immune responses to influenza, and may be useful in measuring response to other vaccines and infectious agents.

Project description:One of the newest strategies developed by the Global Influenza Strategy has been to broaden the composition of the current influenza vaccine formulations from trivalent products to quadrivalent products. This study aimed to assess the immunogenicity and safety of Quadrivalent Influenza HA vaccine (QIV) compared with Trivalent Influenza HA vaccine (TIV) and to evaluate three consecutive batches of QIV equivalence in Indonesian children and adults. This was an experimental, randomized, double blind, four arm parallel group bridging study involving unprimed healthy children and adults aged 9-40 years. A total of 540 subjects were enrolled in this study and randomized into four arm groups. Each subject received one dose of TIV or QIV with three different batch codes. Serology tests were performed at baseline and 28 days after vaccination. Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody titers were analyzed for Geometric Mean Titer (GMT), seroprotection, and seroconversion rates. Solicited, unsolicited, and serious adverse events were observed up to 28 days after vaccination. A total of 537 subjects completed the study per protocol and were analyzed for immunogenicity criteria. All randomized subjects were analyzed for safety criteria. The percentage of the subjects with anti-HI titer ≥1:40 28 days after QIV vaccination was 99.5% for A/H1N1; 99.5% for A/H3N2; 93.1% for B/Texas, and 99.0% for B/Phuket. The seroprotection, GMT, and seroconversion rates of QIV were not significantly different from those of TIV for the common vaccine strains (p > 0.01) and were significantly different from those of TIV for the added B/Phuket strains (p < 0.01). Most solicited injection-site and systemic reactions with either vaccine were mild to moderate and resolved within a few days. Antibody response to QIV were equivalence among vaccine batches and comparable between age groups for each of the 4 strains. QIV was immunogenic and well-tolerated and had immunogenicity and safety profiles compared with TIV for all common strains. The immunogenicity of the three batches of QIV was equivalent for the four strains. Trial registration. Clinical Trial registration: NCT03336593.
