Antibody Kinetics and Response to Routine Vaccinations in Infants Born to Women Who Received an Investigational Trivalent Group B Streptococcus Polysaccharide CRM197-Conjugate Vaccine During Pregnancy.

ABSTRACT: Maternal vaccination against group B Streptococcus (GBS) might provide protection against invasive GBS disease in infants. We investigated the kinetics of transplacentally transferred GBS serotype-specific capsular antibodies in the infants and their immune response to diphtheria toxoid and pneumococcal vaccination.This phase 1b/2, observer-blind, single-center study (NCT01193920) enrolled infants born to women previously randomized (1:1:1:1) to receive either GBS vaccine at dosages of 0.5, 2.5, or 5.0 ?g of each of 3 CRM197-glycoconjugates (serotypes Ia, Ib, and III), or placebo. Infants received routine immunization: combination diphtheria vaccine (diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus/Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine; age 6/10/ 14 weeks) and 13-valent pneumococcal CRM197-conjugate vaccine (PCV13; age 6/14 weeks and 9 months). Antibody levels were assessed at birth, day (D) 43, and D91 for GBS serotypes; 1 month postdose 3 (D127) for diphtheria; and 1 month postprimary (D127) and postbooster (D301) doses for pneumococcal serotypes.Of 317 infants enrolled, 295 completed the study. In infants of GBS vaccine recipients, GBS serotype-specific antibody geometric mean concentrations were significantly higher than in the placebo group at all timepoints and predictably decreased to 41%-61% and 26%-76% of birth levels by D43 and D91, respectively. Across all groups, ?95% of infants were seroprotected against diphtheria at D127 and ?91% of infants had seroprotective antibody levels against each PCV13 pneumococcal serotype at D301.Maternal vaccination with an investigational CRM197-glycoconjugate GBS vaccine elicited higher GBS serotype-specific antibody levels in infants until 90 days of age, compared with a placebo group, and did not affect infant immune responses to diphtheria toxoid and pneumococcal vaccination.NCT01193920.

Project description:ImportanceThe standard schedule of national immunization programs for infants may not be sufficient to protect extremely and very preterm infants.ObjectiveTo evaluate the immunogenicity of routine vaccinations administered to preterm infants.Design, setting, and participantsA multicenter, prospective, observational cohort study of preterm infants stratified according to gestational age recruited from 8 hospitals across the Netherlands between October 2015 and October 2017, with follow-up until 12 months of age (October 2018). In total, 296 premature infants were enrolled and compared with a control group of 66 healthy term infants from a 2011 study, immunized according to the same schedule with the same vaccines.ExposuresThree primary doses of the diphtheria-tetanus toxoids-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliomyelitis-Haemophilus influenza type b-hepatitis B combination vaccine were given at 2, 3, and 4 months after birth followed by a booster at 11 months and a 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine at 2, 4, and 11 months after birth.Main outcomes and measuresPrimary end points were (1) proportion of preterm infants who achieved IgG antibody against vaccine antigens at concentrations above the internationally defined threshold for protection after the primary series and booster dose and (2) serum IgG geometric mean concentrations after the primary series and booster vaccination. Proportions and geometric mean concentrations were compared in preterm infants and the control group of term infants.ResultsOf 296 preterm infants (56.1% male; mean gestational age, 30 weeks), complete samples before vaccination, 1 month after the primary series, and 1 month after the booster were obtained from 220 preterm infants (74.3%). After the primary series, the proportion of preterm infants across all gestational age groups who achieved protective IgG antibody levels against pertussis toxin, diphtheria, tetanus and 6 of 10 pneumococcal serotypes varied between 83.0% and 100%, Haemophilus influenzae type b between 34.7% and 46.2% (40.6% among all preterm infants overall), and pneumococcal serotypes 4, 6B, 18C, and 23F between 45.8% and 75.1%. After the booster dose, protective antibody levels were achieved in more than 95% of all preterm groups, except for Haemophilus influenzae type b (88.1%). In general, geometric mean concentrations of all vaccine-induced antibodies were significantly lower in all preterm infants vs term infants, except for pertussis toxin and pneumococcal serotypes 4 and 19F after the primary series and booster vaccination.Conclusions and relevanceAmong preterm infants, administration of routine vaccinations during the first year of life was associated with protective antibody levels against most antigens in the majority of infants after the primary series and booster, except for Haemophilus influenzae type b. However, antibody concentrations were generally lower among preterm infants compared with historical controls.

Project description:ImportanceTo our knowledge, little is known about antibody development after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in immunocompromised individuals, such as patients with cancer.ObjectiveTo determine whether hematooncological patients develop anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies after vaccination.Design, setting, and participantsThis retrospective cohort study included 2 independent cohorts of patients who were treated for hematological and solid malignant tumors between October 2020 and May 2021, comprising 901 samples from 595 patients and 58 health care workers (HCWs). Serum samples were collected from patients who were treated at an academic center and a community hospital in a rural area and a control group of HCWs, all of whom received SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.Main outcomes and measuresTotal anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (anti-NC) and antispike protein (anti-S) antibodies were measured retrospectively.ResultsIn total, 595 patients (320 women [53.8%] and 275 men [46.2%]; median [range] age, 67 [19-96] years) and 58 HCWs (40 women [69.0%] and 18 men [31.0%]; median [range] age, 42 [24-60] years) were included. Previous SARS-CoV-2 infection was documented in 43 of 595 (7.2%), while anti-NC antibodies that suggested previous infections were observed in 49 of 573 evaluable patients (8.6%). In both cohorts, anti-S antibody levels were higher in fully vaccinated patients compared with patients who received 1 dose. After the first vaccination, patients with hematological cancer who received B cell-targeting agents had lower anti-S levels (median, 1.6 AU/mL; range: 0-17 244 AU/mL) than patients who received other therapies (median, 191.6 AU/mL; range, 0-40 000; P < .001) or patients with solid tumors (median, 246.4 AU/mL; range, 0-40 000 AU/mL; P < .001). Anti-S levels after the first vaccination differed according to ongoing antineoplastic treatment modalities, with the lowest median levels in patients who received chemotherapy alone (157.7 AU/mL; range, 0-40 000 AU/mL) or in combination with immunotherapy (118.7 AU/mL; range, 14.1-38 727 AU/mL) and the highest levels in patients with no ongoing antineoplastic treatment (median, 634.3 AU/mL; range, 0-40 000 AU/mL; P = .01). Antibody levels after full immunization were higher in HCWs (median, 2500 U/mL; range, 485-2500 U/mL) than in patients with cancer (median, 117.0 U/mL; range, 0-2500 U/mL; P < .001).Conclusions and relevanceIn this cohort study of patients with hematooncological diseases and a control group of HCWs, anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies after vaccination could be detected in patients with cancer. Lower antibody levels compared with HCWs and differences in seroconversion in specific subgroups underscore the need for further studies on SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with hematooncological disease.
