Immunogenicity and safety of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in HIV-infected individuals naive to pneumococcal vaccination.

ABSTRACT: Immunocompromised individuals are at an increased risk of pneumococcal disease. Vaccination is recommended as an important strategy to reduce risk of pneumococcal disease in HIV-infected individuals. This study evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of three 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) doses followed by one dose of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) at 1-month intervals in pneumococcal vaccine-naive, HIV-infected individuals.This was a phase 3, open-label, single-arm study.Pneumococcal vaccine-naive, HIV-infected individuals at least 6 years of age with CD4 T-cell count at least 200 ?cells/?l and viral load less than 50?000 ?copies/ml received three doses of PCV13 followed by one dose of PPSV23 at 1-month intervals. Serotype-specific antipneumococcal immune responses were assessed by IgG geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) and opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) assay geometric mean titres (GMTs) after each dose. Local reactions at the PCV13 injection site, systemic and other adverse events were collected.Three hundred and one individuals were enrolled and vaccinated; 279 completed the study. Statistically significant increases in IgG GMCs and OPA GMTs were observed for all serotypes after dose 1 of PCV13 compared with prevaccine levels. GMCs and GMTs were comparable or only modestly increased for all serotypes after PCV13 doses 2 and 3 and after PPSV23. The majority of local reactions and systemic events were mild to moderate in severity.A three-dose regimen of PCV13 was well tolerated in pneumococcal vaccine-naive, HIV-infected individuals. Significant immune responses to all serotypes were observed following the first dose of PCV13, with only modest increases in antibody titres following subsequent PCV13 or PPSV23 administration.

Project description:IntroductionLong-term comparative immunologic response to 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) versus 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) among HIV-infected adults has not yet been investigated.MethodsIn this prospective pilot study, we quantified in HIV-positive adults serotype-specific IgG concentrations of the 12 pneumococcal serotypes shared by both vaccines 5 years after vaccination with two doses of PCV13 8 weeks apart (group 1) or one dose of PPV23 (group 2) and compared them with those assessed prior to vaccination (BL) and after 1 year (T1). Comparison of immunogenicity was based on geometric mean concentration (GMC), proportion of individuals with ≥ twofold increase from BL in specific antibody concentration against ≥ 2 serotypes and percentage of individuals with serotype-specific IgG ≥ 0.35 μg/ml, ≥ 1 μg/ml and ≥ individual serotype-specific correlates of protection.ResultsWe included 91 subjects (median CD4+ 650 cells/µl, > 90% with HIV-RNA < 50 copies/ml); patients in groups 1 (n = 42) and 2 (n = 49) were homogeneous for the main characteristics. GMCs were significantly higher in the PCV13 group than in the PPV23 group for serotype 19F (p = 0.003). Both vaccines revealed higher significant GMCs to most serotypes compared with BL, i.e., eight in group 1 vs. seven in group 2. With respect to T1, GMCs decreased significantly in the PCV13 group for eight vs. ten serotypes in the PPV23 group. More participants in the PCV13 group had ≥ 2 increase from BL in antibody levels to ≥ 2 serotypes compared with the PPV23 group (78.6% vs. 59.2%, p = 0.042). Overall, the percentage of subjects with serotype-specific IgG ≥ 0.35 μg/ml, ≥ 1 μg/ml and ≥ individual serotype-specific correlates of protection was similar between groups.ConclusionIn this study with HIV-positive adults with a favorable viro-immunologic profile, both vaccines were shown to achieve a long-term durable serologic response. We found minor differences in immunogenicity between the two vaccines, which favored PCV13 over PPV23 5 years after immunization.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT02123433.

Project description:ObjectiveThe Ministry of Health (MOH), Mongolia, is considering introducing 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in its national immunization programme to prevent the burden of disease caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. This study evaluates the cost-effectiveness and budget impact of introducing PCV13 compared to no PCV vaccination in Mongolia.MethodsThe incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of introducing PCV13 compared to no PCV vaccination was assessed using an age-stratified static multiple cohort model. The risk of various clinical presentations of pneumococcal disease (meningitis, pneumonia, non-meningitis non-pneumonia invasive pneumococcal disease and acute otitis media) at all ages for thirty birth cohorts was assessed. The analysis considered both health system and societal perspectives. A 3+0 vaccine schedule and price of US$3.30 per dose was assumed for the baseline scenario based on Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance's advance market commitment tail price.ResultsThe ICER of PCV13 introduction is estimated at US$52 per disability-adjusted life year (DALY) averted (health system perspective), and cost-saving (societal perspective). Although indirect effects of PCV have been well-documented, a conservative scenario that does not consider indirect effects estimated PCV13 introduction to cost US$79 per DALY averted (health system perspective), and US$19 per DALY averted (societal perspective). Vaccination with PCV13 is expected to cost around US$920,000 in 2016, and thereafter US$820,000 every year. The programme is likely to reduce direct disease-related costs to MOH by US$440,000 in the first year, increasing to US$510,000 by 2025.ConclusionIntroducing PCV13 as part of Mongolia's national programme appears to be highly cost-effective when compared to no vaccination and cost-saving from a societal perspective at vaccine purchase prices offered through Gavi. Notwithstanding uncertainties around some parameters, cost-effectiveness of PCV introduction for Mongolia remains robust over a range of conservative scenarios. Availability of high-quality national data would improve future economic analyses for vaccine introduction.

Project description:ObjectiveTo estimate the cost effectiveness of vaccinating people with high risk conditions against invasive pneumococcal disease using the 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.DesignEconomic evaluation using a cohort model from the perspective of healthcare providers.SettingEngland.ParticipantsPeople aged 2 years and older at increased risk of invasive pneumococcal disease due to chronic kidney disease; splenic dysfunction; HIV infection; a compromised immune system; chronic heart, liver, or respiratory disease; or diabetes.Main outcome measuresCosts, gains in life years and quality adjusted life years (QALYs), and incremental cost effectiveness ratios.ResultsIncreasing indirect protection resulting from the vaccination programme of infants using the 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine means that the burden of disease preventable by targeting high risk groups will diminish in time. Under base case assumptions--that is, no overall impact on non bacteraemic pneumonia in high risk groups and assuming the high risk vaccination programme would be launched two to three years after the infant programme--the incremental cost effectiveness ratio was estimated to be more than £30,000 (€37,216; $48,210) per QALY gained for most risk groups. If, however, the vaccine does not offer protection against non-bacteraemic pneumococcal pneumonia or the vaccine was introduced concomitantly with the infant 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccination programme then vaccinating high risk people would (more) likely be cost effective. Sensitivity analyses showed that the cost effectiveness was particularly sensitive to assumed herd benefits and vaccine efficacy estimates.ConclusionUnder base case assumptions it is unlikely that a pneumococcal vaccination programme aimed at risk groups could be considered cost effective. Uncertainty could be substantially reduced by establishing the effectiveness of the 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine against non-bacteraemic pneumococcal pneumonia, particularly in at risk groups.
