Persistence of the immune response after 4CMenB vaccination, and the response to an additional booster dose in infants, children, adolescents, and young adults.

ABSTRACT: The multicomponent meningococcal serogroup B vaccine, 4CMenB, has demonstrated effectiveness in preventing invasive MenB disease in infants and in controlling MenB outbreaks. The need for/timing of additional booster doses is not yet established. We reviewed eight studies that evaluated antibody persistence and booster following primary 4CMenB vaccination of infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. Putative seroprotective hSBA titers for ?1 vaccine antigen were maintained by 76-100% of children 24-36 months after priming during infancy and in 84-100% after priming in the second year of life. hSBA levels were higher in vaccinees at 4 and 7.5 years following priming during adolescence than in vaccine-naïve individuals of a similar age. Antibodies persisted at higher levels to NHBA and NadA than to PorA or fHbp. Booster vaccination induced robust anamnestic responses, demonstrating effective priming by 4CMenB across age-groups. These data can inform decision-making to optimize vaccination strategies.

Project description:Abstract Background A peak in meningococcal carriage and invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) occurs during adolescence and young adulthood. In the United States, preventive vaccination with a quadrivalent meningococcal (MenACWY) conjugate vaccine is recommended at age 11–12 years, with a booster dose given at age 16 years. MenACWY-TT (Nimenrix®), a MenACWY tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine, was first licensed in 2012 and is available in the European Union and 50 other countries. Immune responses to other MenACWY conjugate vaccines decline over several years following vaccination. Here, we review 2 recent studies evaluating the long-term persistence of MenACWY-TT immune responses in adolescents as well as safety and immunogenicity of a booster dose given 10 years after primary vaccination. Methods Both studies (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01934140, NCT03189745) were extensions of phase 2 or 3 studies of subjects 11–17 years of age given a single dose of MenACWY-TT or MenACWY polysaccharide vaccine (MenACWY-PS). Immune responses through 10 years after primary vaccination and after a Year 10 MenACWY-TT booster dose were measured by serum bactericidal antibody assays using baby rabbit complement (rSBA). Specific endpoints included percentages of subjects with rSBA titers ≥1:8 and ≥1:128 and geometric mean titers (GMTs). Booster dose safety and tolerability were also evaluated. Results In both studies, the percentages of subjects with rSBA titers ≥1:8 through 10 years postvaccination were generally higher or similar among MenACWY-TT (69.3%–91.2% at Year 10; n=137–163) compared with MenACWY-PS (24.4%–88.9%; n=45–53) recipients for all 4 serogroups (Figure); similar results were observed for GMTs (146.0–446.9 vs 12.9–191.0 at Year 10). One month after a MenACWY-TT booster dose, 97.7%–100% of subjects across groups had titers ≥1:8 (Figure), and GMTs were markedly higher than prebooster values. No new safety signals were identified following the booster dose. Figure 1. Subjects in each of the 2 studies with rSBA titers ≥1:8 before and at 1 month, 5 years, and 10 years after primary vaccination with MenACWY-TT or MenACWY-PS at 11–17 years of age and 1 month after booster vaccination with MenACWY-TT at 10 years following primary vaccination. Conclusion Functional antibodies for all 4 serogroups persisted through 10 years after MenACWY-TT adolescent vaccination, suggesting that this vaccine may help prevent IMD throughout the lengthy risk period in this group. A MenACWY-TT booster dose may further extend protection regardless of the primary vaccine received. Funded by Pfizer.
