Immunogenicity of a Quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus Vaccine When Co-Administered with Tetanus-Reduced Diphtheria-Acellular Pertussis and Quadrivalent Meningococcal Conjugate Vaccines in Healthy Adolescents: Results from a Randomized, Observer-Blind, Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Vaccines against human papillomavirus (HPV), tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (Tdap) and Neisseria meningitidis are widely recommended in adolescents. A phase-4 observer-blind study was performed to investigate the impact of concomitant administration of a quadrivalent HPV (HPV4) and Tdap vaccine with a quadrivalent meningococcal CRM₁₉₇-conjugate vaccine (MenACWY-CRM) in terms of immunogenicity against the different vaccine antigens and overall safety profile. Previous results showed that concomitant administration of the three vaccines did not impact the immunogenicity of Tdap and MenACWY, or safety. This article presents recently released HPV immunogenicity results.

Methods

Healthy adolescents aged 11-18 years (801) were randomized to receive either HPV4 + Tdap + MenACWY or HPV4 + Tdap + Placebo and two additional doses of HPV4 at 2 and 6 months after the first dose. Antibody responses to HPV types (HPV-6, -11, -16 and -18) were assessed at baseline and at 1 month post-full vaccination.

Results

Post-third HPV4 dose, non-inferiority of immune responses to HPV4 + Tdap + MenACWY vs. HPV4 + Tdap + Placebo was demonstrated; the lower limits of two-sided 95% CIs of the between-group differences in seroconversion rates were > - 5% (non-inferiority margin) against each HPV type tested. Seroconversion rates ranged between 98.0% (HPV-6) and 99.7% (HPV-11 and HPV-18) in group HPV4 + Tdap + MenACWY and from 99.0% (HPV-11 and HPV-16) to 99.7% (HPV-6 and HPV-18) in group HPV4 + Tdap + Placebo.

Conclusion

Overall, these data support the concomitant administration of HPV4, Tdap and MenACWY-CRM in adolescents.

Project description:Key pointsConcomitant administration of bivalent rLP2086 (Trumenba [Pfizer, Inc] and diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis and inactivated poliovirus vaccine (DTaP/IPV) was immunologically noninferior to DTaP/IPV and saline and was safe and well tolerated. Bivalent rLP2086 elicited robust and broad bactericidal antibody responses to diverse Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B strains expressing antigens heterologous to vaccine antigens after 2 and 3 vaccinations.BackgroundBivalent rLP2086, a Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B (MnB) vaccine (Trumenba [Pfizer, Inc]) recently approved in the United States to prevent invasive MnB disease in individuals aged 10-25 years, contains recombinant subfamily A and B factor H binding proteins (fHBPs). This study evaluated the coadministration of Repevax (diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis and inactivated poliovirus vaccine [DTaP/IPV]) (Sanofi Pasteur MSD, Ltd) and bivalent rLP2086.MethodsHealthy adolescents aged ≥11 to <19 years received bivalent rLP2086 + DTaP/IPV or saline + DTaP/IPV at month 0 and bivalent rLP2086 or saline at months 2 and 6. The primary end point was the proportion of participants in whom prespecified levels of antibodies to DTaP/IPV were achieved 1 month after DTaP/IPV administration. Immune responses to bivalent rLP2086 were measured with serum bactericidal assays using human complement (hSBAs) against 4 MnB test strains expressing fHBP subfamily A or B proteins different from the vaccine antigens.ResultsParticipants were randomly assigned to receive bivalent rLP2086 + DTaP/IPV (n = 373) or saline + DTaP/IPV (n = 376). Immune responses to DTaP/IPV in participants who received bivalent rLP2086 + DTaP/IPV were noninferior to those in participants who received saline + DTaP/IPV.The proportions of bivalent rLP2086 + DTaP/IPV recipients with prespecified seroprotective hSBA titers to the 4 MnB test strains were 55.5%-97.3% after vaccination 2 and 81.5%-100% after vaccination 3. The administration of bivalent rLP2086 was well tolerated and resulted in few serious adverse events.ConclusionsImmune responses to DTaP/IPV administered with bivalent rLP2086 to adolescents were noninferior to DTaP/IPV administered alone. Bivalent rLP2086 was well tolerated and elicited substantial and broad bactericidal responses to diverse MnB strains in a high proportion of recipients after 2 vaccinations, and these responses were further enhanced after 3 vaccinations.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01323270.

Project description:ImportanceThe United States has experienced a nationwide resurgence of pertussis since the mid-1970s, despite high estimated vaccine coverage. Short-lived immunity induced by diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccines in young children is widely believed to be responsible for this growing burden, but the duration of protection conferred by DTaP vaccines remains incompletely quantified.ObjectiveTo assess the duration of immunity and the effectiveness of DTaP vaccines in US children.Design, setting, and participantsA mathematical, age-structured model of pertussis transmission, previously validated empirically on incidence data in Massachusetts, was used in this simulation study to assess the duration of DTaP immunity most consistent with the empirical values of the relative increase in the odds of acquiring pertussis from recent epidemiologic studies in the United States. The study included 5 simulated cohorts of children born between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2005, followed up between the ages of 5 and 9 years (study period, January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2014). Statistical analysis was performed from May 1 to December 1, 2017.InterventionsVaccination with DTaP according to the US immunization schedule, with a range of assumptions regarding the degree of waning immunity.Main outcomes and measuresVaccine effectiveness and relative change in the odds of acquiring pertussis (odds ratio) in children aged 5 to 9 years, duration of DTaP immunity, and vaccine population-level impact.ResultsThis study found a marked association between the degree of waning immunity, vaccine effectiveness, and the odds ratio. Counterintuitively, the odds ratio was positively associated with vaccine effectiveness, as a consequence of nonlinear, age-assortative transmission dynamics. Based on the empirical odds ratios (1.33; 95% CI, 1.23-1.43), it was estimated that vaccine effectiveness exceeded 75% in children aged 5 to 9 years and that more than 65% of children remained immune to pertussis 5 years after the last DTaP dose.Conclusions and relevanceThe results of this study suggest that temporal trends in the odds of acquiring pertussis are an unreliable measure of the durability of vaccine-induced protection. They further demonstrate that DTaP vaccines confer imperfect, but long-lived protection. Control strategies should be based on the best available estimates of vaccine properties and the age structure of the transmission network.

Project description:ObjectivesTo report the results of an intervention using the 4 Pillars™ Practice Transformation Program (4 Pillars™ Program) to increase adolescent vaccinations including human papillomavirus vaccine (HPV) and influenza vaccines, which remain underutilized in this population.Study designEleven pediatric and family medicine practices, previously control sites from a randomized controlled cluster trial, with ≥50 adolescent patients participated. The 4 Pillars™ Program was the foundation of the intervention. De-identified demographic, office visit and vaccination data were derived from electronic medical record extractions for patients whose date of birth was 4/1/1997 to 4/1/2004 (ages 11-17years at baseline). Vaccination rates for HPV, influenza, tetanus-pertussis-diphtheria (Tdap) and meningococcal (MenACWY) vaccines were determined for all eligible patients pre- and post intervention (i.e., vaccination rates on 4/1/2015 and 4/30/2016).ResultsAmong 9473 patients ages 11-17years at baseline (4/1/2015), mean pre-intervention vaccination rates for HPV initiation and completion, meningococcal, Tdap and influenza vaccines were below national levels. Rates increased significantly post intervention (P<0.001) for HPV initiation which increased 17.1 percentage points (PP) from 51.4%; HPV completion increased 14.8PP from 30.7%, meningococcal vaccine uptake increased 16.6PP from 79.1%, Tdap vaccine uptake increased 14.6PP from 76.9%. Influenza vaccine uptake did not increase significantly (2.3PP from 40.1%). In the regression using generalized estimating equations, odds of vaccination were higher for younger, non-white adolescents for all vaccines; being in a smaller practice decreased the odds of Tdap vaccination but increased the odds of influenza vaccination.ConclusionClinically and statistically significant improvements in HPV series initiation and completion, and meningococcal and Tdap vaccinations were observed in primary care practices implementing the 4 Pillars™ Practice Transformation Program.
