RESUMO

In 2014, the Expanded Program on Immunization of Thailand changed the timing of the second dose of the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine from 4-6 years to 2.5 years, while maintaining the first dose at 9 months of age. This study aimed to examine the dynamics and durability of immune responses induced by the two-dose MMR vaccine in a group of 169 Thai children from 4 to 7 years of age (4.5 years after the second MMR dose). We followed a cohort of healthy children from a clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02408926) where they were administered either the Priorix vaccine (GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals, Rixensart, Belgium) or M-M-RII (Merck & Co., Kenilworth, NJ, USA) at 9 months and 2.5 years of age. Blood samples were collected annually from ages 4 to 7 years. Anti-measles, -mumps, and -rubella IgG levels were evaluated using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (EUROIMMUN, Lubeck, Germany). A total of 169 children completed this study. Over the 4.5 years following the two-dose MMR vaccination, we observed a decline in the seroprotection rates against measles and mumps, but not rubella. Longitudinal monitoring of antibody persistence, among other strategies, will help predict population-level immunity and inform public health interventions to address potential future outbreaks.

RESUMO

As of 2024, Thailand has not incorporated the varicella-zoster virus (VZV) vaccine into the Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI). This study aimed to evaluate VZV seroprevalence across all age groups in Chonburi Province, Thailand, during the post-COVID-19 era, and to support the development of a vaccination plan against VZV. A total of 950 participants were enrolled from October 2022 to January 2023. VZV antibody levels were measured using ELISA kits (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany), with seropositivity set at ≥110 IU/L. The overall VZV seropositivity rate was 64.8%, similar to rates in 1994 and 2014. However, seropositivity rates for the 5-9, 10-14, and 15-19 age groups were significantly higher in the 1994 study, and for the 10-14 and 15-19 age groups in the 2014 study, indicating a declining trend among young Thai individuals. The seropositivity rate increased with age, with a seroprevalence exceeding 80% in individuals aged 30 years and older. Our study found a significant association between the history of varicella and seropositivity. Thus, a positive history may indicate immunity. In conclusion, a significant portion of Thai adolescents are still vulnerable to varicella, highlighting the crucial role of vaccination in averting serious illness.

RESUMO

Thailand has incorporated the whole-cell (wP) pertussis vaccine into the expanded program on immunization since 1977 and has offered the acellular pertussis (aP) vaccine as an optional vaccine for infants since 2001. We followed healthy children from a clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02408926) in which children were randomly assigned to receive either pentavalent (DTwP-HB-Hib) or hexavalent (DTaP-IPV-HB-Hib) vaccines for their primary series (administered at 2, 4, and 6 months) and first booster vaccination (18 months). Both groups received Tdap-IPV as a second booster at the age of 4 y. Blood samples were collected for evaluation of antibody persistence to diphtheria toxoid (DT), tetanus toxoid (TT), and Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) between 2 and 6 y of age annually, and for the immunogenicity study of Tdap-IPV at 1 month after the second booster. Antibody persistence to Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) was followed until 3 y of age. A total of 105 hexavalent-vaccinated children and 91 pentavalent-vaccinated children completed this study. Both pentavalent and hexavalent groups demonstrated increased antibody levels against DT, TT, and B. pertussis antigens following the second booster with Tdap-IPV. All children achieved a seroprotective concentration for anti-DT and anti-TT IgG at 1 month post booster. The hexavalent group possessed significantly higher anti-pertactin IgG (adjusted p = .023), whereas the pentavalent group possessed significantly higher anti-pertussis toxin IgG (adjusted p < .001) after the second booster. Despite declining levels post-second booster, a greater number of children sustained protective levels of anti-DT and anti-TT IgG compared to those after the first booster.

RESUMO

AIM/OBJECTIVE: This study investigates placental antibody transfer following recombinant pertussis vaccination in pregnancy in a real-world setting. METHODS: This postmarketing observational study recruited pregnant women vaccinated with monovalent recombinant acellular pertussis (aP) vaccine (aPgen; n = 199) or combined to tetanus-diphtheria (TdaPgen; n = 200), or Td-vaccine only (n = 54). Pregnancy, delivery, and neonatal outcomes were assessed. Cord blood was collected postdelivery and pertussis toxin (PT)-IgG, filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA)-IgG, and PT-neutralizing antibodies (PT-Nab) were assessed. RESULTS: No adverse pregnancy, delivery, or neonatal outcomes attributed to aPgen, TdaPgen, or Td vaccination were reported. High anti-PT antibody levels were detected in cord samples from women vaccinated with aPgen (geometric mean concentration [GMC] PT-IgG 206.1 IU/ml, 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 164.3-258.6; geometric mean titer [GMT] PT-Nab 105.3 IU/ml, 95% CI: 81.7-135.8) or TdaPgen (GMC PT-IgG 153.1 IU/ml, 95% CI: 129.1-181.5; GMT PT-Nab 81.5 IU/ml, 95% CI: 66.4-100.0). In the Td-only group, anti-PT antibodies were low (GMC PT-IgG 6.5 IU/ml, 95% CI: 4.9-8.8; GMT PT-Nab 3.8 IU/ml, 95% CI: 2.8-5.1). The same was found for FHA-IgG. Recombinant pertussis vaccination at <27 or 27-36 weeks gestation induced similar cord pertussis antibody levels. CONCLUSION: This first real-world study confirms that recombinant pertussis vaccination in the second or third trimester of pregnancy results in high levels of passive immunity in infants.

RESUMO

Human enterovirus (EV) and Parechovirus (PeV) infections are major causes of sepsis-like illness in infants < 90 days of age. Enterovirus species B (EV-B) was found to be the leading cause of aseptic meningitis in young infants. In Thailand, EV and PeV are not part of the routine screening of blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children with suspected aseptic meningitis and sepsis-like illness. Consequently, data on EV and PeV epidemiology are limited. This study tested clinical samples from hospitalized young infants with suspected aseptic meningitis or sepsis-like illness between 2013 and 2022 for EV, PeV, and Herpes simplex virus (HSV). Of 95 specimens, 10 were positive for EV, representing 10.5%. These positive samples included eight CSF and two stool samples. No samples were positive for PeV and HSV. Of these positive cases, EV-B was detected in eight, and EV-A was detected in two cases. The species of EV-B detected include echovirus-18 (E18) (n=2), E21 (n=2), E4(n=1), E5 (n=1), E9 (n=1), and E11 (n=1). Our report demonstrates the significant role of EV-B, and less frequently EV-A, in Thai infants with aseptic meningitis and sepsis-like illness.

RESUMO

Numerous studies have largely focused on short-term immunogenicity in recovered individuals post mRNA vaccination. However, understanding the long-term durability, particularly in inactivated and adenoviral vectored vaccines, remains limited. We evaluated antibody responses, omicron variant neutralization, and IFN-γ responses in 119 previously infected individuals vaccinated with CoronaVac or ChAdOx1 up to six months post-vaccination. Both vaccines elicited robust immune responses in recovered individuals, surpassing those who were infection-naïve, and these persisted above pre-vaccination levels for six months. However, antibody levels declined over time (geometric mean ratio (GMR) = 0.52 for both vaccines). Notably, neutralizing activities against omicron declined faster in ChAdOx1 (GMR = 0.6) compared to CoronaVac recipients (GMR = 1.03). While the first dose of ChAdOx1 adequately induced immune responses in recovered individuals, a second dose demonstrated advantages in omicron variant neutralization and slower decline. Although both vaccines induced T cell responses, the median IFN-γ level at six months returned to pre-vaccination levels. However, more individuals exhibited reactive T cell responses. Extending the interval (13-15 months) between infection and vaccination could enhance antibody levels and broaden neutralization. Together, these findings demonstrate a robust humoral and cellular response that was sustained for at least six months after vaccination, thus guiding optimal vaccination strategies based on prior infection and vaccine platforms.

RESUMO

Background: Several countries have authorized a booster vaccine campaign to combat the spread of COVID-19. Data on persistence of booster vaccine-induced immunity against new Omicron subvariants are still limited. Therefore, our study aimed to determine the serological immune response of COVID-19 booster after CoronaVac-priming. Methods: A total of 187 CoronaVac-primed participants were enrolled and received an inactivated (BBIBP), viral vector (AZD1222) or mRNA vaccine (full-/half-dose BNT162B2, full-/half-dose mRNA-1273) as a booster dose. The persistence of humoral immunity both binding and neutralizing antibodies against wild-type and Omicron was determined on day 90-120 after booster. Results: A waning of total RBD immunoglobulin (Ig) levels, anti-RBD IgG, and neutralizing antibodies against Omicron BA.1, BA.2, and BA.4/5 variants was observed 90-120 days after booster vaccination. Participants who received mRNA-1273 had the highest persistence of the immunogenicity response, followed by BNT162b2, AZD1222, and BBIBP-CorV. The responses between full and half doses of mRNA-1273 were comparable. The percentage reduction of binding antibody ranged from 50 % to 75 % among all booster vaccine. Conclusions: The antibody response substantially waned after 90-120 days post-booster dose. The heterologous mRNA and the viral vector booster demonstrated higher detectable rate of humoral immune responses against the Omicron variant compared to the inactivated BBIBP booster. Nevertheless, an additional fourth dose is recommended to maintain immune response against infection.
