Chikungunya virus virus-like particle vaccine is well tolerated and immunogenic in chikungunya seropositive individuals.

In a phase 2 safety and immunogenicity study of a chikungunya virus virus-like particle (CHIKV VLP) vaccine in an endemic region, of 400 total participants, 78 were found to be focus reduction neutralizing antibody seropositive at vaccination despite being ELISA seronegative at screening, of which 39 received vaccine. This post hoc analysis compared safety and immunogenicity of CHIKV VLP vaccine in seropositive (n = 39) versus seronegative (n = 155) vaccine recipients for 72 weeks post-vaccination. There were no differences in solicited adverse events, except injection site swelling in 10.

Immunogenicity of partial doses of live oral cholera vaccine CVD 103-HgR in children in the United States.

In a phase 4, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multi-center study performed to assess the immunogenicity of a single oral dose of live, attenuated cholera vaccine, volunteers aged 2-17 years were randomized 6:1 to receive 1 × 10 colony forming units of PXVX0200 or placebo. In the subset of subjects who consumed < 80 % of the vaccine dose, seroconversion rates were calculated and stratified by amount consumed. Of 468 subjects dosed, a subset of 33 (7 %) received < 80 % of the vaccine dose.

Safety and immunogenicity of PXVX0317, an aluminium hydroxide-adjuvanted chikungunya virus-like particle vaccine: a randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, phase 2 trial.

Background: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) disease is an ongoing public health threat. We aimed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of PXVX0317, an aluminium hydroxide-adjuvanted formulation of a CHIKV virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine.

Methods: This randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, phase 2 trial was conducted at three clinical trial centres in the USA.

Update on CVD 103-HgR single-dose, live oral cholera vaccine.

Cholera remains endemic in >50 countries, putting millions at risk, especially young children for whom killed vaccines offer limited protection. An oral, live attenuated vaccine - CVD 103-HgR (Vaxchora vaccine) - was licensed by the US FDA in 2016 for adults aged 18-64 years traveling to endemic regions, based on clinical trials in human volunteers showing the vaccine was well tolerated and conferred 90% efficacy within 10 days. The evidence base for Vaxchora vaccine has expanded with additional clinical trial data, in older adults (aged 46-64 years) and children (aged 2-17 years), demonstrating that the vaccine produces a strong vibriocidal antibody response.

Long-Term Immunogenicity of Live Oral Cholera Vaccine CVD 103-HgR in Adolescents Aged 12-17 Years in the United States.

As part of a phase 4, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to assess the immunogenicity and safety of PXVX0200 in children and adolescents aged 2-17 years, a subset of 73 adolescent subjects aged 12-17 years was followed for 2 years after vaccination and had blood collected for antibody assays on days 1, 11, 29, 91, 181, 365, 547, and 730. Endpoints included serum vibriocidal antibody (SVA) seroconversion, defined as a 4-fold or greater rise in antibody titer over baseline; geometric mean titers (GMTs); and geometric mean fold increase (GMFI) over baseline. Serum vibriocidal antibody seroconversion persisted in most subjects, with a rate of 64.
