ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Immunogenicity and safety of inactivated zoster vaccine (ZVIN) were evaluated in adults with autoimmune disease.METHODS:
Adults with autoimmune disease treated with immunosuppressive therapy (biologic or nonbiologic) were randomized to receive 4 doses of ZVIN, ZVIN containing a higher quantity of antigen, or placebo. To measure varicella-zoster virus (VZV)-specific immune responses using glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (gpELISA) and interferon-gamma enzyme-linked immunospot (IFN-γ ELISPOT), blood samples were collected at baseline, post-doses 2, 3, and 4. The primary hypothesis was that ZVIN would elicit significant VZV-specific immune responses, measured by gpELISA or ELISPOT, at approximately 28 days post-dose 4. Safety and tolerability was assessed through 28 days post-dose 4.RESULTS:
ZVIN elicited a statistically significant VZV-specific immune response approximately 28 days post-dose 4, measured by gpELISA (estimated geometric mean fold rise from baseline [GMFR] = 1.6 [95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4,1.7], P value < .0001) and IFN-γ ELISPOT (estimated GMFR = 2.0 [95% CI, 1.6,2.6], P value < .0001); both results met the prespecified success criterion. Overall, 57% (164/289) of all ZVIN and 21% (13/62) of placebo recipients reported ≥1 injection-site adverse events (AEs), and 52% (149/289) and 47% (29/62) reported ≥1 systemic AEs, respectively. Eight ZVIN and 1 placebo recipients experienced serious AEs, including 2 events (ZVIN group) determined by the investigator to be vaccine related (keratitis; amnesia). Overall frequency of AEs decreased with subsequent doses of vaccine.CONCLUSIONS:
In adults with autoimmune disease, ZVIN was well tolerated and elicited statistically significant VZV-specific immune responses approximately 28 days post-dose 4, measured by gpELISA and IFN-γ ELISPOT. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NCT01527383.Palavras-chave
