Immunogenicity and Safety of a Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine Administered Concomitantly or Sequentially With Tdap Vaccine: Randomized Phase IIIb Trial in Healthy Participants 9-60 Years of Age in the Philippines.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Incorporating dengue vaccination into existing childhood vaccination programs could increase vaccine coverage. This study assessed the safety and immunogenicity of concomitant versus sequential administration of the combined tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine and the tetravalent dengue vaccine (CYD-TDV).

Methods

This phase IIIb, randomized, open-label, multicenter study was conducted in the Philippines in individuals 9-≤60 years of age (NCT02992418). Participants were to receive 3 CYD-TDV doses 6 months apart, the first dose administered either concomitantly or sequentially (28 days post-Tdap). Antibody levels were measured at baseline and 28 days post-first doses of Tdap vaccine and CYD-TDV, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (pertussis, tetanus), micrometabolic inhibition test-toxin neutralization assay (diphtheria) and plaque reduction neutralization test (dengue). Immunogenicity was assessed for all participants, and statistical analysis reported for baseline dengue seropositive participants. Safety was assessed throughout.

Results

Among 688 randomized participants, 629 (91.4%) were baseline dengue seropositive (concomitant group, n = 314 and sequential group, n = 315). After the first dose, non-inferiority of immune responses between concomitant and sequential vaccination was achieved; between-group geometric mean antibody concentration ratios were close to 1 for anti-PT, anti-FHA, anti-PRN and anti-FIM, between-group differences in percent achieving seroprotection (titers ≥0.1 IU/mL) were 0.26% (diphtheria) and 0.66% (tetanus), and between-group geometric mean antibody titer ratios were close to 1 for dengue serotypes 1-4. Safety profiles in both study groups were comparable.

Conclusions

CYD-TDV and Tdap vaccine administered concomitantly or sequentially in baseline dengue seropositive participants elicited comparable immunogenicity and safety profiles.

Project description:BackgroundNovel oral poliovirus vaccine type 2 (nOPV2) was developed by modifying the Sabin strain to increase genetic stability and reduce risk of seeding new circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 outbreaks. Bivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (bOPV; containing Sabin types 1 and 3) is the vaccine of choice for type 1 and type 3 outbreak responses. We aimed to assess immunological interference between nOPV2 and bOPV when administered concomitantly.MethodsWe conducted an open-label, non-inferiority, randomised, controlled trial at two clinical trial sites in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Healthy infants aged 6 weeks were randomly assigned (1:1:1) using block randomisation, stratified by site, to receive nOPV2 only, nOPV2 plus bOPV, or bOPV only, at the ages of 6 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks. Eligibility criteria included singleton and full term (≥37 weeks' gestation) birth and parents intending to remain in the study area for the duration of study follow-up activities. Poliovirus neutralising antibody titres were measured at the ages of 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 14 weeks, and 18 weeks. The primary outcome was cumulative immune response for all three poliovirus types at the age of 14 weeks (after two doses) and was assessed in the modified intention-to-treat population, which was restricted to participants with adequate blood specimens from all study visits. Safety was assessed in all participants who received at least one dose of study product. A non-inferiority margin of 10% was used to compare single and concomitant administration. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04579510.FindingsBetween Feb 8 and Sept 26, 2021, 736 participants (244 in the nOPV2 only group, 246 in the nOPV2 plus bOPV group, and 246 in the bOPV only group) were enrolled and included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis. After two doses, 209 (86%; 95% CI 81-90) participants in the nOPV2 only group and 159 (65%; 58-70) participants in the nOPV2 plus bOPV group had a type 2 poliovirus immune response; 227 (92%; 88-95) participants in the nOPV2 plus bOPV group and 229 (93%; 89-96) participants in the bOPV only group had a type 1 response; and 216 (88%; 83-91) participants in the nOPV2 plus bOPV group and 212 (86%; 81-90) participants in the bOPV only group had a type 3 response. Co-administration was non-inferior to single administration for types 1 and 3, but not for type 2. There were 15 serious adverse events (including three deaths, one in each group, all attributable to sudden infant death syndrome); none were attributed to vaccination.InterpretationCo-administration of nOPV2 and bOPV interfered with immunogenicity for poliovirus type 2, but not for types 1 and 3. The blunted nOPV2 immunogenicity we observed would be a major drawback of using co-administration as a vaccination strategy.FundingThe US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Project description:ObjectiveIn 2012, recommendations for universal tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccination during pregnancy were released. Our objective was to determine if Tdap, influenza, and pneumococcal vaccine uptake during pregnancy changed after the release of the guidelines, and identify factors associated with receiving the Tdap and influenza vaccine after 2012.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study on pregnant individuals who initiated prenatal care before 20 weeks' gestation between 11/2011-11/2012 ("pre-guideline") and 12/2012-12/2015 ("post-guideline"). Vaccine uptake dates were abstracted from medical records. The pre and post-guideline cohorts were compared to determine if Tdap vaccine uptake and timing improved after the new Tdap guidelines. We additionally examined influenza and pneumococcal vaccine uptake before and after guidelines. Factors associated with receipt of the Tdap and influenza vaccine during pregnancy in the post-guideline cohort were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression models.ResultsOf 2,294 eligible individuals, 1,610 (70.2%) received care in the post-guideline cohort. Among the pre-guideline cohort, 47.4% received Tdap, whereas Tdap uptake increased to 86.1% after the guidelines (p<0.001). Similarly, receiving the Tdap vaccine between the recommended time of 27-36 weeks gestational age improved from 52.5% to 91.8% after the guidelines (p<0.001). Vaccine frequency for influenza improved significantly from 61.2% to 72.0% (p<0.001), while frequency for pneumococcus were low and unchanged. An increased number of prenatal visits was associated with receiving the Tdap and influenza vaccines during pregnancy (respective, aOR 1.09 95% CI 1.05-1.13; aOR 1.50 95% CI 1.17-1.94). Non-Hispanic Black individuals were less likely to receive both the Tdap and influenza vaccines during pregnancy compared to non-Hispanic White individuals (respective, aOR 0.51 95% CI 0.33-0.80; aOR 0.68 95% CI 0.48-0.97).ConclusionsReceipt and timing of Tdap vaccine improved after implementation of the 2012 ACIP guidelines. Receipt of influenza vaccine uptake also improved during the study period, while uptake of the pneumococcal vaccine remained low. Significant racial disparities exist in receipt of Tdap and influenza vaccine during pregnancy.
