Safety and immunogenicity of a Vi-DT typhoid conjugate vaccine: Phase I trial in Healthy Filipino adults and children.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Typhoid fever remains a major public health problem in low- and middle-income countries where children aged 2-14?years bear the greatest burden. Vi polysaccharide is poorly immunogenic in children <2?years of age, and protection in adults is modest. The limitations of Vi polysaccharide vaccines can be overcome by conjugation of the Vi to a carrier protein. A typhoid conjugate vaccine composed of Vi polysaccharide conjugated to diphtheria toxoid (Vi-DT) has been developed. The Phase I study results are presented here. METHODS:This was a randomized, observer-blinded Phase I study to assess the safety and immunogenicity of Vi-DT compared to Vi polysaccharide vaccine, conducted in Manila, Philippines. Participants enrolled in an age de-escalation manner (18-45, 6-17 and 2-5?years) were randomized between Test (Vi-DT, 25?µg) administered at 0 and 4?weeks and Comparator (Vi polysaccharide, Typhim Vi® and Vaxigrip®, Sanofi Pasteur) vaccines. RESULTS:A total of 144 participants were enrolled (48 by age strata, 24 in Test and Comparator groups each). No serious adverse event was reported in either group. Solicited and unsolicited adverse events were mild or moderate in both groups with the exception of a 4-year old girl in Test group with grade 3 fever which resolved without sequelae. All participants in Test group seroconverted after first and second doses of Vi-DT while the proportions in the Comparator group were 97.1% and 97.2%, after first dose of Typhim Vi® and second dose of Vaxigrip®, respectively. Vi-DT showed 4-fold higher Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) compared to Typhim Vi® (adjusted for age strata, p?

Project description:Trial designPhase 3, randomized, controlled, multicenter, equivalence trial.MethodsRecruitment of participants occurred between 04Februray2020 and 15July2020 at four centers in the Philippines: University of the East - Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center Inc., Quezon City; University of Philippines Manila - National Institute of Health, Ermita Manila; Asian Hospital and Medical Center, Metro Manila, Philippines Study; and Medical Research Unit, Tropical Disease Foundation, Makati City, Metro Manila, Philippines.Participants1800 adults and children 6-months to 45-years of age.InterventionsParticipants received a single injection of multidose (MD) or single dose (SD) Vi-DT as test vaccines or meningococcal conjugate vaccine as a comparator.ObjectiveTo evaluate immune equivalence of SD and MD formulations of Vi-DT, and to assess the safety of both formulations compared with comparator vaccine.Outcome measurementBlood draw for immunogenicity was performed at baseline prior to vaccine receipt and at four weeks after vaccination for a subset of participants to determine anti-Vi IgG geometric mean titers (GMT) and seroconversion rates. The primary outcome was comparison of anti Vi-IgG seroconversion and GMT between the two formulations of Vi-DT at 4 weeks following vaccine administration. Immune equivalence of MD and SD formulations was confirmed when the two-tailed 95% confidence interval (CI) of the GMT ratio is within [0.67, 1.5] at a two-sided significance level of 0.05. All participants were followed for safety events for six months after vaccine administration.RandomizationParticipants were randomized to receive SD Vi-DT, MD Vi-DT, or meningococcal conjugate vaccines in 2.5:2.5:1 allocation ratio.BlindingStudy participants and observers were blinded to treatment assignment.FindingsImmune equivalence of SD (n=252) and MD (n=247) formulations was confirmed by anti-Vi IgG GMT ratio of 1.14 (95%CI: 0.91, 1.43) with respective GMTs in the MD and SD groups of 640.62 IU/mL (95%CI: 546.39, 751.11) and 562.57 IU/mL (95%CI: 478.80, 661.00) (p=0.259). Similarly, anti-Vi IgG seroconversion rate difference between the two formulations of ‒0.43% (95%CI: -4.42, 3.56) confirmed immune equivalence with corresponding seroconversion rates of 98.38% (95%CI: 95.91, 99.37) and 98.81% (95%CI: 96.56, 99.59) in MD and SD Vi-DT formulations, respectively (p=0.722). Both formulations of Vi-DT had a satisfactory safety profile - all five serious adverse events reported during the study were unrelated to the investigational product.InterpretationThe MD and SD formulations of Vi-DT elicited robust and equivalent immune responses following one dose vaccination, and both formulations demonstrated a favorable safety profile.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04204096.FundingThis study was funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (OPP 1115556).

Project description:BackgroundTyphoid fever caused by Salmonella enteric serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) is a common cause of morbidity in the world. In 2017, 14.3 million cases of Typhoid and paratyphoid fever occurred globally. School age children between 3 to 19 years old are the most affected. Poor sanitation and multi drug resistance have increased the need for vaccines to reduce the global burden of disease. Based on previous trials, typhoid conjugate vaccines have longer- lasting protection, higher efficacy, require fewer doses and are suitable from infancy that allows them to be incorporated into the routine immunization program. Our previous phase I trial proved that a novel Vi-DT typhoid conjugate vaccine is safe and immunogenic in subjects 2-5 and 18-40 years. Our phase II trial consisted of subjects 6 months to 40 years. Our previously published paper on subjects 6 to < 24 months proved that this vaccine is safe and immunogenic for this age group. Therefore, with this paper we aimed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity in children 2-11 years.MethodsA randomized, observer-blind, superiority design of Vi-DT Typhoid conjugate vaccine compared to Vi-polysaccharide vaccine (Vi-PS) phase II study was conducted from October 2018 to December 2018 where 200 subjects aged 2-11 years were recruited. A blood sample prior to vaccination was taken, followed by administration of a single dose of either test vaccine (Vi-DT) or control vaccine (Vi-PS) and then a second blood sample was collected 28 days post vaccination. Adverse reactions were assessed and antibody increment was evaluated at 28 days post vaccination through collected serum sample.ResultsPain was the most common local reaction. Fever and muscle pain were the most common systemic reactions. Both Vi-DT and Vi-PS groups had roughly the same number of adverse reactions. At 28 days post vaccination, 100% of subjects in the Vi-DT group and 93% of subjects in the Vi-PS group produced antibody increment ≥4 times. The Vi-DT group produced a higher GMT as compared to Vi-PS.ConclusionVi-DT vaccine is safe and immunogenic in children 2-11 years old.Trial registrationTrial registration number: NCT03460405 .

Project description:IntroductionThere is a high global incidence of typhoid fever, with an annual mortality rate of 200,000 deaths. Typhoid fever also affects younger children, particularly in resource-limited settings in endemic countries. Typhoid vaccination is an important prevention tool against typhoid fever. However, the available polysaccharide typhoid vaccines are not recommended for children under 2 years of age. A new typhoid conjugate Vi-diphtheria toxoid (Vi-DT) vaccine has been developed for infant immunization. We aimed to define the safety and immunogenicity of the Vi-DT vaccine among adults and children in Indonesia.MethodsAn observational, blinded, comparative, randomized, phase I safety study in two age de-escalating cohorts was conducted in East Jakarta, Indonesia, from April 2017 to February 2018. We enrolled 100 healthy subjects in 2 age groups: adults and children (18-40 and 2-5 years old). These groups were randomized into study groups (Vi-DT vaccine), and comparator groups (Vi-polysaccharide (Vi-PS) vaccine and another additional vaccine) which was administered in 4 weeks apart. Subjects were followed up to six months.ResultOne hundred healthy adults and children subjects completed the study. The Vi-DT and Vi-PS vaccines showed no difference in terms of intensity of any immediate local and systemic events within 30 minutes post-vaccination. Overall, pain was the most common local reaction, and muscle pain was the most common systemic reaction in the first 72 hours. No serious adverse events were deemed related to vaccine administration. The first and second doses of the Vi-DT vaccine induced seroconversion and higher geometric mean titers (GMT) in all subjects compared to that of baseline. However, in terms of GMT, the second dose of Vi-DT did not induce a booster response.ConclusionThe Vi-DT vaccine is safe and immunogenic in adults and children older than two years. A single dose of the vaccine is able to produce seroconversion and high GMT in all individuals.
