RESUMO

BACKGROUND The purpose of the study was to determine the level of antihemagglutinin antibodies in the serum of patients in the geriatric population in Doctor's Surgery NZOZ Nucleus Warsaw, Poland, during the epidemic season 2021/2022 using the hemagglutination inhibition assay (HAI), according to anti-influenza and anti-COVID-19 vaccination, age, and sex. MATERIAL AND METHODS Serum samples taken from 256 patients aged 65 to 99 years were examined for anti-hemagglutinin antibodies and protective levels of antibodies against antigens: A/Victoria/2570/2019 (H1N1)pdm09, A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020(H3N2), B/Washington/02/2019 (B/Victoria lineage), and B/Phuket/3073/2013 (B/Yamagata lineage) of the quadrivalent influenza vaccine for epidemic season 2021/2022. RESULTS The highest protective level, ie, the percentage of people with antibody titers ≥40 was 87.5% and was recorded for subtype A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020(H3N2), the dominant type causing infections in the epidemic season 2021/2022 confirmed by molecular biology methods. Geometric mean titer (GMT) values and protective levels for B/Washington/02/2019 (B/Victoria lineage) antigen were higher for men than women (respectively 38.4 vs 67.6; P<0.001 and 58.0% vs 74.6%; P<0.001). The protective levels of antibodies among patients vaccinated vs unvaccinated against COVID-19 were higher for B/Washington/02/2019 (B/Victoria lineage) and B/Phuket/3073/2013 (B/Yamagata lineage) antigens (64.2% vs 44.4%; P=0.023 and 78.6% vs 55.6%; P=0.004). GMT values for vaccinated against COVID-19 were also higher. There were no significant differences between younger (65-79 years) and older (≥80 years) seniors. CONCLUSIONS The analysis shows differences in the level of individual antibodies, GMT and the protective level depending on subtypes of influenza A or B virus, B/Victoria or B/Yamagata lineage, sex, and previous vaccination history against influenza and COVID-19.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Influenza B/Yamagata viruses exhibited weak antigenic selection in recent years, reducing their prevalence over time and requiring no update of the vaccine component since 2015. To date, no B/Yamagata viruses have been isolated or sequenced since March 2020. METHODS: The antibody prevalence against the current B/Yamagata vaccine strain in Italy was investigated: For each influenza season from 2012/2013 to 2021/2022, 100 human serum samples were tested by haemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay against the vaccine strain B/Phuket/3073/2013. In addition, the sequences of 156 B/Yamagata strains isolated during the influenza surveillance activities were selected for analysis of the haemagglutinin genome segment. RESULTS: About 61.9% of the human samples showed HAI antibodies, and 21.7% had protective antibody levels. The prevalence of antibodies at protective levels in the seasons between the isolation of the strain and its inclusion in the vaccine was between 11% and 25%, with no significant changes observed in subsequent years. A significant increase was observed in the 2020/2021 season, in line with the increase in influenza vaccine uptake during the pandemic. Sequence analysis showed that from 2014/2015 season onward, all B/Yamagata strains circulating in Italy were closely related to the B/Phuket/2013 vaccine strain, showing only limited amino acid variation. CONCLUSIONS: A consistent prevalence of antibodies to the current B/Yamagata vaccine strain in the general population was observed. The prolonged use of a well-matched influenza vaccine and a low antigenic diversity of B/Yamagata viruses may have facilitated a strong reduction in B/Yamagata circulation, potentially contributing to the disappearance of this lineage.

RESUMO

The hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay is a traditional laboratory procedure for detection and quantitation of serum antibodies of hemagglutinating viruses containing the hemagglutinin (HA) gene. The current study aimed to investigate the novel use of virus like particles (VLP) as an antigen for the HI assay. VLPs were prepared from a strain of H5N1 using a baculovirus expression system. The VLPs were characterized using the hemagglutination test, Sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), Western blotting, and transmission electron microscopy. The comparative HI assay was performed using three different seed antigens: A/chicken/Mexico/232/94 (H5N2), A/chicken/Egypt/18-H/09(H5N1) and A/goose/Guangdong/1/1996(H5N1). The HI assay of serum antibody titrations using homologous antigens to these vaccinal seeds were compared to the VLP's antigens for the same serum. The HI titers were logically relevant to the similarity between VLP antigens and vaccinal seeds, indicating the VLPs behave similarly to the standard HI assay which uses inactivated whole virus as an antigen. VLPs could be considered as an alternative to the HI assay antigen as they show a relatedness between the similarity with vaccinal seed and serum antibodies. Compared to typical entire H5N1 viral antigen prepared in SPF eggs that require proper inactivation to avoid any public health risk, VLPs prepared in tissue culture, plants or insect cells are a safe, inexpensive and scalable alternative to inactivated whole virus antigen.

RESUMO

Vaccine responsiveness is often reduced in older adults. Yet, our lack of understanding of low vaccine responsiveness hampers the development of effective vaccination strategies to reduce the impact of infectious diseases in the ageing population. Young-adult (25-49 y), middle-aged (50-64 y) and older-adult ( ≥ 65 y) participants of the VITAL clinical trials (n = 315, age-range: 28-98 y), were vaccinated with an annual (2019-2020) quadrivalent influenza (QIV) booster vaccine, followed by a primary 13-valent pneumococcal-conjugate (PCV13) vaccine (summer/autumn 2020) and a primary series of two SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-1273 vaccines (spring 2021). This unique setup allowed investigation of humoral responsiveness towards multiple vaccines within the same individuals over the adult age-range. Booster QIV vaccination induced comparable H3N2 hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titers in all age groups, whereas primary PCV13 and mRNA-1273 vaccination induced lower antibody concentrations in older as compared to younger adults (primary endpoint). The persistence of humoral responses, towards the 6 months timepoint, was shorter in older adults for all vaccines (secondary endpoint). Interestingly, highly variable vaccine responder profiles overarching multiple vaccines were observed. Yet, approximately 10% of participants, mainly comprising of older male adults, were classified as low responders to multiple vaccines. This study aids the identification of risk groups for low vaccine responsiveness and hence supports targeted vaccination strategies. Trial number: NL69701.041.19, EudraCT: 2019-000836-24.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study was to assess the lot-to-lot consistency, immunogenicity and safety of three manufacturing lots of a quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4). METHODS: A randomized, double-blind, phase IV clinical trial was conducted in healthy children, adolescents and adults aged 9-59 years in Guizhou Province, China. Eligible participants were enrolled and randomized into three groups in a ratio of 1:1:1 to receive a single dose of one of three manufacturing lots of IIV4. Serum samples were collected before and 28 days after vaccination for hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody testing. Safety data were collected for up to 28 days after vaccination. The primary objective was to evaluate the lot-to-lot consistency of immune response as assessed by the geometric mean titer (GMT) of HI antibody at 28 days after vaccination. RESULTS: Between November 27, 2022 and December 18, 2022, 1260 eligible participants were enrolled, with similar participant demographics among groups. Immune responses after vaccination were comparable across groups, with the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of GMT ratios for all 4 strains falling into the equivalence criterion of (0.67, 1.5). The seroconversion rates (SCRs) and seroprotection rates (SPRs) met the US Center or Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) criteria for all strains for each lot (lower limit of 95% CI of SCR ≥ 40% and SPR ≥ 70%). The incidences of solicited and unsolicited adverse reactions were similar among three groups, most of which (91.9%) were mild or moderate in severity. A total of 11 serious adverse events were reported during the study, and all were considered unrelated to vaccination. CONCLUSION: The three manufacturing lots of IIV4 demonstrated consistent immunogenicity. IIV4 can elicit satisfactory immune responses for all four strains and no safety concerns were identified. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: Identifier No. NCT05512494.

RESUMO

Understanding the molecular mechanisms underpinning diverse vaccination responses is critical for developing efficient vaccines. Molecular subtyping can offer insights into heterogeneous nature of responses and aid in vaccine design. We analyzed multi-omic data from 62 haemagglutinin seasonal influenza vaccine recipients (2019-2020), including transcriptomics, proteomics, glycomics, and metabolomics data collected pre-vaccination. We performed a subtyping analysis on the integrated data revealing five subtypes with distinct molecular signatures. These subtypes differed in the expression of pre-existing adaptive or innate immunity signatures, which were linked to significant variation in baseline immunoglobulin A (IgA) and hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titer levels. It is worth noting that these differences persisted through day 28 post-vaccination, indicating the effect of initial immune state on vaccination response. These findings highlight the significance of interpersonal variation in baseline immune status as a crucial factor in determining the effectiveness of seasonal vaccines. Ultimately, incorporating molecular profiling could enable personalized vaccine optimization.

RESUMO

We established a qualified Madin-Darby canine kidney cell line (qMDCK-Cs) and investigated its suitability for source virus isolation to develop cell-based seasonal influenza vaccine viruses using vaccine manufacturer cells (Manuf-Cs). When inoculated with 81 influenza-positive clinical specimens, the initial virus isolation efficiency of qMDCK-Cs was exceeded 70%. Among the qMDCK-C isolates, 100% of the A/H1N1pdm09, B/Victoria and B/Yamagata strains and >70% of the A/H3N2 strains showed antigenicity equivalent to that of the contemporary vaccine or relevant viruses in haemagglutination inhibition (HI) or virus neutralization (VN) tests using ferret antisera. These qMDCK-C isolates were propagated in Manuf-Cs (MDCK and Vero cells) (Manuf-C viruses) to develop vaccine viruses. In reciprocal antigenicity tests, ferret antisera raised against corresponding reference viruses and Manuf-C viruses recognized 29 of 31 Manuf-C viruses and corresponding reference viruses, respectively at HI or VN titres more than half of the homologous virus titres, which is the antigenicity criterion for cell culture seasonal influenza vaccine viruses specified by the World Health Organization. Furthermore, ferret antisera against these Manuf-C viruses recognized ≥95% of the viruses circulating during the relevant influenza season with HI or VN titres greater than one-quarter of the homologous virus titres. No cell line-specific amino acid substitutions were observed in the resulting viruses. However, polymorphisms at positions 158/160 of H3HA, 148/151 of N2NA and 197/199 of B/Victoria HA were occasionally detected in the qMDCK-C and Manuf-C viruses but barely affected the viral antigenicity. These results indicated that qMDCK-Cs are suitable for isolating influenza viruses that can serve as a source of antigenically appropriate vaccine viruses. The use of the qMDCK-C isolates will eliminates the need for clinical sample collection, virus isolation, and antigenicity analysis every season, and is expected to contribute to the promotion of vaccine virus development using manufacturer cells.

RESUMO

BackgroundHealthcare personnel (HCP) are at high risk for respiratory infections through occupational exposure to respiratory viruses.AimWe used data from a prospective influenza vaccine effectiveness study in HCP to quantify the incidence of acute respiratory infections (ARI) and their associated presenteeism and absenteeism.MethodsAt the start and end of each season, HCP at two Israeli hospitals provided serum to screen for antibodies to influenza virus using the haemagglutination inhibition assay. During the season, active monitoring for the development of ARI symptoms was conducted twice a week by RT-PCR testing of nasal swabs for influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Workplace presenteeism and absenteeism were documented. We calculated incidences of influenza- and RSV-associated ARI and applied sampling weights to make estimates representative of the source population.ResultsThe median age of 2,505 participating HCP was 41 years, and 70% were female. Incidence was 9.1 per 100 person-seasons (95% CI: 5.8-14.2) for RT-PCR-confirmed influenza and 2.5 per 100 person-seasons (95% CI: 0.9-7.1) for RSV illness. Each season, 18-23% of unvaccinated and influenza-negative HCP seroconverted. The incidence of seroconversion or RT-PCR-confirmed influenza was 27.5 per 100 person-seasons (95% CI: 17.8-42.5). Work during illness occurred in 92% (95% CI: 91-93) of ARI episodes, absence from work in 38% (95% CI: 36-40).ConclusionInfluenza virus and RSV infections and associated presenteeism and absenteeism were common among HCP. Improving vaccination uptake among HCP, infection control, and encouraging sick HCP to stay home are important strategies to reduce ARI incidence and decrease the risk of in-hospital transmission.

RESUMO

Influenza seasons occur annually, building immune history for individuals, but the influence of this history on subsequent influenza vaccine protection remains unclear. We extracted data from an animal trial to study its potential impact. The trial involved 80 ferrets, each receiving either one type of infection or a placebo before vaccination. We quantified the vaccine protection by evaluating hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) antibody titer responses. We tested whether hosts with different infection histories exhibited similar level of responses when receiving the same vaccine for all homologous and heterologous outcomes. We observed that different pre-existing immunities were generally beneficial to vaccine induced responses, but varied in magnitude. Without pre-immunity, post-vaccination HAI titers after the 1st dose of the vaccine were less likely to be above 1:40, and a booster shot was needed. Our study suggests that pre-existing immunity may strengthen and extend the homologous and heterologous vaccine responses.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Influenza vaccination may protect through the humoral immune response, cellular immune response, or possibly both. Immunity after vaccination can be mediated through antibodies that may be detected by the rise of serum hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titers. Our objective was to investigate the proportion of protection against influenza mediated through antibodies by measuring the rise of HAI titer (indirect effect) compared to that induced through other immune mechanisms (direct effect) for influenza A and B. METHODS: We analysed data from a cluster randomized trial conducted during the 2008-2009 season in which Canadian Hutterite children were vaccinated against influenza. We used inverse probability weighting to calculate the indirect and direct effect of vaccination against influenza A/H3N2 and influenza B/Brisbane using HAI titres and overall vaccine efficacy. RESULTS: We included data on 617 children from 46 Hutterite colonies, aged between 3 and 15 years who were vaccinated with either inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine or hepatitis A vaccine. Vaccine efficacy was 63 % for influenza A (H3N2) and 28 % for influenza B. The hazard ratio for protection against influenza A/H3N2 due to an indirect effect of vaccination was 0.96 (95 % confidence interval (CI) of 0.00 to 2.89) while for the direct effect it was 0.38 (95 % CI of 0.00 to 5.47). The hazard ratio for influenza B indirect effect was 0.75 (95 % CI of 0.07 to 1) and for the direct effect 0.96 (95 % CI of 0.00 to 12.02). In contrast, repeating the analysis using microneutralization in a subgroup of 488 children revealed that the protective effect for vaccination for A/H3N2 was entirely mediated by antibodies but only for 13 % for influenza B. CONCLUSIONS: Although vaccination provided higher protective effectiveness against influenza A than B, most of the influenza A vaccine efficacy likely occurred through antibodies other than what could be detected by HAI titres. In contrast, for influenza B, while the HAI titres appeared to mediate most of the vaccine effectiveness, this was not confirmed by microneutralization analysis.

RESUMO

The immune response to inactivated influenza vaccines (IIV) is influenced by multiple factors, including hemagglutinin content and egg-based manufacturing. Only two US-licensed vaccines are manufactured without egg passage: cell culture-based inactivated vaccine (ccIIV) and recombinant vaccine (RIV). We conducted a randomized open-label trial in central Wisconsin during the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons to compare immunogenicity of sequential vaccination. Participants 18-64 years old were randomized 1:1:1 to receive RIV, ccIIV or IIV in strata defined by number of influenza vaccine doses in the prior 3 years. They were revaccinated with the same product in year two. Paired serum samples were tested by hemagglutination inhibition against egg-adapted and cell-grown vaccine viruses. Serologic endpoints included geometric mean titer (GMT), mean fold rise, and percent seroconversion. There were 373 participants randomized and vaccinated in 2018-19; 332 were revaccinated in 2019-20. In 2018-19, RIV and ccIIV were not more immunogenic than IIV against A/H1N1. The post-vaccination GMT against the cell-grown 3C.2a A/H3N2 vaccine virus was higher for RIV vs IIV (p = .001) and RIV vs ccIIV (p = .001). The antibody response to influenza B viruses was similar across study arms. In 2019-20, GMT against the cell-grown 3C.3a A/H3N2 vaccine virus was higher for RIV vs IIV (p = .03) and for RIV vs ccIIV (p = .001). RIV revaccination generated significantly greater backboosting to the antigenically distinct 3C.2a A/H3N2 virus (2018-19 vaccine strain) compared to ccIIV or IIV. This study adds to the evidence that RIV elicits a superior immunologic response against A/H3N2 viruses compared to other licensed influenza vaccine products.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The hemagglutination inhibition antibody (HAI) titer contributes only a part of vaccine-induced protection against influenza virus infections. Using causal mediation analysis, we quantified the proportion of vaccine efficacy mediated by postvaccination HAI titers. METHODS: We conducted causal mediation analyses using data from a randomized, active-comparator controlled, phase III, trial of an inactivated, split-virion seasonal quadrivalent influenza vaccine in children conducted from October 2010 to December 2011 in 8 countries. Vaccine efficacy was estimated using a weighted Cox proportional hazards model. Estimates were decomposed into the direct and indirect effects mediated by postvaccination HAI titers. RESULTS: The proportions of vaccine efficacy mediated by postvaccination HAI titers were estimated to be 22% (95% confidence interval, 18%--47%) for influenza A(H1N1), 20% (16%-39%) for influenza A(H3N2), and 37% (26%-85%) for influenza B/Victoria. CONCLUSIONS: HAI titers partially mediate influenza vaccine efficacy against influenza A(H1N1), A(H3N2), and B/Victoria. Our estimates were lower than in previous studies, possibly reflecting expected heterogeneity in antigenic similarity between vaccine and circulating viruses across seasons.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to determine the level of anti-hemagglutinin antibodies in blood sera collected from patients during the 2022/2023 epidemic season in Poland. A total of 700 sera samples from patients across the country were tested. The samples were divided into seven groups according to the age of the patients, with 100 samples from each age group. The hemagglutination inhibition test (OZHA) was used to determine the level of anti-hemagglutinin antibodies. The test results have confirmed the presence of anti-hemagglutinin antibodies for antigens A/Victoria/2570/2019 (H1N1)pdm09, A/Darwin/9/2021 (H3N2), B/Austria/1359417/2021 (B/Yamagata lineage) and B/ Phuket/3073/2013 (B/Victoria lineage) present in the influenza vaccine recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the 2022/2023 epidemic season. The highest geometric mean antibody titres (GMT) and protection rate values (%) were recorded for hemagglutinin A/H3N2. In Poland, in the 2022/2023 epidemic season, the percentage of the population vaccinated against influenza was 5.7%. Therefore, the test results can be interpreted as the response of the immune system in patients who have been previously infected with an influenza virus.

RESUMO

Influenza exposures early in life are believed to shape future susceptibility to influenza infections by imprinting immunological biases that affect cross-reactivity to future influenza viruses. However, direct serological evidence linked to susceptibility is limited. Here we analysed haemagglutination-inhibition titres in 1,451 cross-sectional samples collected between 1992 and 2020, from individuals born between 1917 and 2008, against influenza B virus (IBV) isolates from 1940 to 2021. We included testing of 'future' isolates that circulated after sample collection. We show that immunological biases are conferred by early life IBV infection and result in lineage-specific cross-reactivity of a birth cohort towards future IBV isolates. This translates into differential estimates of susceptibility between birth cohorts towards the B/Yamagata and B/Victoria lineages, predicting lineage-specific birth-cohort distributions of observed medically attended IBV infections. Our data suggest that immunological measurements of imprinting could be important in modelling and predicting virus epidemiology.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Influenza viruses can cause zoonotic infections that pose public health risks. Surveillance of influenza A and B viruses is conducted globally; however, information on influenza C and D viruses is limited. Longitudinal monitoring of influenza C virus in humans has been conducted in several countries, but there has been no long-term monitoring of influenza D virus in humans. The public health risks associated with the influenza D virus therefore remain unknown. METHODS: We established a duplex real-time RT-PCR to detect influenza C and D viruses and analyzed respiratory specimens collected from 2144 patients in Japan with respiratory diseases between January 2018 and March 2023. We isolated viruses and conducted hemagglutination inhibition tests to examine antigenicity and focus reduction assays to determine susceptibility to the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitor baloxavir marboxil. RESULTS: We detected three influenza C viruses belonging to the C/Kanagawa- or C/Sao Paulo-lineages, which recently circulated globally. None of the specimens was positive for the influenza D virus. The C/Yokohama/1/2022 strain, isolated from the specimen with the highest viral RNA load and belonging to the C/Kanagawa-lineage, showed similar antigenicity to the reference C/Kanagawa-lineage strain and was susceptible to baloxavir. CONCLUSIONS: Our duplex real-time RT-PCR is useful for the simultaneous detection of influenza C and D viruses from the same specimen. Adding the influenza D virus to the monitoring of the influenza C virus would help in assessing the public health risks posed by this virus.

RESUMO

Participants between the ages of 10-86 years old were vaccinated with split-inactivated influenza vaccine (Fluzone®) in six consecutive influenza seasons from 2016-2017 to 2021-2022. Vaccine effectiveness varies from season to season as a result of both host immune responses as well as evolutionary changes in the influenza virus surface glycoproteins that provide challenges to vaccine manufacturers to produce more effective annual vaccines. Next generation influenza vaccines are in development and may provide protective immune responses against a broader number of influenza viruses and reduce the need for annual vaccination. An improved understanding how current influenza vaccines are influenced by human host immune responses in people of different ages and co-morbidities is necessary for designing the next-generation of 'universal' or broadly-protective influenza vaccines. Overall, pre-existing immune responses to previous influenza virus exposures, either by past infections or vaccinations, is a critical factor influencing host responses to seasonal influenza vaccination. Participants vaccinated in consecutive seasons had reduced serum hemagglutination-inhibition (HAI) activity against strains included in the vaccine compared to participants that had not been vaccinated in the preceding 1-2 years prior to entering this study. The magnitude and breadth of these antibody responses were also modulated by the age of the participant. Elderly participants over 65 years of age, in general, had lower pre-existing HAI titers each season prior to vaccination with lower post-vaccination titers compared to children or young adults under the age of 35. The administration of higher doses (HD) of the split-inactivated vaccine enhanced the antibody titers in the elderly. This report showcases 6 consecutive years of antibody HAI activity in human subjects receiving seasonal split-inactivated influenza vaccine.

RESUMO

The influenza viruses cause seasonal respiratory illness that affect millions of people globally every year. Prophylactic vaccines are the recommended method to prevent the breakout of influenza epidemics. One of the current commercial influenza vaccines consists of inactivated viruses that are selected months prior to the start of a new influenza season. In many seasons, the vaccine effectiveness (VE) of these vaccines can be relatively low. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an improved, more universal influenza vaccine (UIV) that can provide broad protection against various drifted strains in all age groups. To meet this need, the computationally optimized broadly reactive antigen (COBRA) methodology was developed to design a hemagglutinin (HA) molecule as a new influenza vaccine. In this study, COBRA HA-based inactivated influenza viruses (IIV) expressing the COBRA HA from H1 or H3 influenza viruses were developed and characterized for the elicitation of immediate and long-term protective immunity in both immunologically naïve or influenza pre-immune animal models. These results were compared to animals vaccinated with IIV vaccines expressing wild-type H1 or H3 HA proteins (WT-IIV). The COBRA-IIV elicited long-lasting broadly reactive antibodies that had hemagglutination-inhibition (HAI) activity against drifted influenza variants.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Daratumumab-treated myeloma patients may face increased seasonal influenza risk due to weakened postvaccination immune responses, especially with daratumumab treatment. We aimed to assess humoral responses to boosted influenza vaccination in daratumumab-treated or -untreated patients. METHODS: In a single-center study, we evaluated humoral responses (hemagglutination-inhibition assay) one month following a two-injection (4-weeks apart) influenza vaccination (standard dose) in 84 patients with multiple myeloma (40 with daratumumab in the past year). RESULTS: Seroprotection rates (titer ≥1/40) after the second vaccine injection were low across vaccinal subtypes (except for A-H3N2): 71.3% (A-H3N2), 19.7% (A-H1N1pdm09), 9.9% (B-Victoria), 11.3% (B-Yamagata). Only A-H3N2 seroprotection rates significantly increased with the booster in daratumumab-treated patients (30% (12/40) after one injection vs 55% (22/40) after the boost; P = 0.01).After propensity score weighting, daratumumab was not significantly associated with a reduced likelihood of seroprotection against at least one vaccine strain (OR 0.65 [95% CI: 0.22-1.88]). CONCLUSION: While daratumumab treatment did not lead to a significant reduction in seroprotection rates following influenza vaccination, a booster vaccine injection demonstrated potential benefit for specific strains (A-H3N2) in patients undergoing daratumumab treatment. Nevertheless, the overall low response rates in patients with multiple myeloma necessitates the development of alternative vaccination and prophylaxis strategies.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Seroepidemiological studies provide estimates of population-level immunity, prevalence/incidence of infections, and evaluation of vaccination programs. We assessed the seroprevalence of protective antibodies against influenza and evaluated the correlation of seroprevalence with the cumulative annual influenza incidence rate. METHODS: We conducted an annual repeated cross-sectional seroepidemiological survey, during June-August, from 2014 to 2019, in Portugal. A total of 4326 sera from all age groups, sex, and regions was tested by hemagglutination inhibition assay. Seroprevalence and geometric mean titers (GMT) of protective antibodies against influenza were assessed by age group, sex, and vaccine status (65+ years old). The association between summer annual seroprevalence and the difference of influenza incidence rates between one season and the previous one was measured by Pearson correlation coefficient (r). RESULTS: Significant differences in seroprevalence of protective antibodies against influenza were observed in the population. Higher seroprevalence and GMT for A(H1N1)pdm09 and A(H3N2) were observed in children (5-14); influenza B seroprevalence in adults 65+ was 1.6-4.4 times than in children (0-4). Vaccinated participants (65+) showed significant higher seroprevalence/GMT for influenza. A strong negative and significant correlation was found between seroprevalence and ILI incidence rate for A(H1N1)pdm09 in children between 5 and 14 (r = -0.84; 95% CI, -0.98 to -0.07); a weak negative correlation was observed for A(H3N2) and B/Yamagata (r ≤ -0.1). CONCLUSIONS: The study provides new insight into the anti-influenza antibodies seroprevalence measured in summer on the ILI incidence rate in the next season and the need for adjusted preventive health care measures to prevent influenza infection and transmission.

RESUMO

The aim of the study was to determine the level of anti-hemagglutinin antibodies in the serum of patients during the 2021/2022 epidemic season in Poland. A total of 700 sera samples were tested, divided according to the age of the patients into 7 age groups: 0-4 years of age, 5-9 years of age, 10-14 years of age, 15-25 years of age, 26-44 years of age, 45-64 years of age and ≥65 years of age, 100 samples were collected from each age group. Anti-hemagglutinin antibody levels was determined using the haemagglutination inhibition assay (OZHA). The results obtained confirm the presence of anti-hemagglutinin antibodies for the antigens A/Victoria/2570/2019 (H1N1) pdm09, A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020 (H3N2), B/Washington/02/2019 and B/Phuket/3073/2013 recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) for the 2021/2022 epidemic season. The analysis of the results shows differences in the levels of individual anti-hemagglutinin antibodies in the considered age groups. In view of very low percentage of the vaccinated population in Poland, which was 6.90% in the 2021/2022 epidemic season, the results obtained in the study would have to be interpreted as the immune system response in patients after a previous influenza virus infection.
