Factors Influencing Persistence of Diphtheria Immunity and Immune Response to a Booster Dose in Healthy Slovak Adults.

ABSTRACT: We assessed the long-term persistence of humoral immunity against diphtheria in adults with childhood vaccination and the immunogenicity of a booster dose considering demographic, behavioural and vaccinating factors. We conducted a trial in 200 healthy Slovak adults aged 24-65 years, immunised against diphtheria in childhood and against tetanus at regular 10-15 year intervals, and receiving a dose of a tetanus-diphtheria toxoid vaccine. The response was determined by ELISA antibody concentrations of paired sera before and at 4 weeks post-vaccination. A seroprotection rate of 21% (95% confidence interval, CI 15.6-27.3%) was found in adults up to 59 years since the last vaccination with seroprotective levels of antibodies against diphtheria ?0.1 IU/mL and a geometric mean concentration of 0.05 IU/mL. Conversely, seropositive levels ?0.01 IU/mL were observed in 98% of adults (95% CI 95-99.5%). Booster-induced seroprotection was achieved in 78% of adults (95% CI 71.6-83.5%) clearly depending on pre-booster antibody levels correlating with age and time since the last vaccination. Moreover, only 54.2% of smokers and 53.3% of patients on statins exhibited seroprotection. Booster vaccination against diphtheria was unable to confer seroprotection in all recipients of only childhood vaccination.

Project description:This phase II study evaluated the effect of chloroquine on the specific CD8(+) T-cell responses to and the safety of a booster dose of investigational human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) F4/AS01(B) vaccine containing 10 ?g of recombinant fusion protein (F4) adjuvanted with the AS01(B) adjuvant system. Healthy adults aged 21 to 41 years, primed 3 years before with two F4/AS01(B) doses containing 10 or 30 ?g of F4 (ClinicalTrials.gov registration number NCT00434512), were randomized (1:1) to receive the F4/AS01(B) booster administered alone or 2 days after chloroquine (300 mg). F4-specific CD8(+)/CD4(+) T-cell responses were characterized by intracellular cytokine staining and lymphoproliferation assays and anti-F4 antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). No effect of chloroquine on CD4(+)/CD8(+) T-cell and antibody responses and no vaccine effect on CD8(+) T-cell responses (cytokine secretion or proliferation) were detected following F4/AS01(B) booster administration. In vitro, chloroquine had a direct inhibitory effect on AS01(B) adjuvant properties; AS01-induced cytokine production decreased upon coincubation of cells with chloroquine. In the pooled group of participants primed with F4/AS01(B) containing 10 ?g of F4, CD4(+) T-cell and antibody responses induced by primary vaccination persisted for at least 3 years. The F4/AS01(B) booster induced strong F4-specific CD4(+) T-cell responses, which persisted for at least 6 months with similar frequencies and polyfunctional phenotypes as following primary vaccination, and high anti-F4 antibody concentrations, reaching higher levels than those following primary vaccination. The F4/AS01(B) booster had a clinically acceptable safety and reactogenicity profile. An F4/AS01(B) booster dose, administered alone or after chloroquine, induced robust antibody and F4-specific CD4(+) T-cell responses but no significant CD8(+) T-cell responses (cytokine secretion or proliferation) in healthy adults. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration number NCT00972725).
