(MenACYW-TT) administered as a booster to adults aged ≥59 years: A phase III meningococcal tetanus toxoid-conjugate vaccine (MenACYW-TT) assessed the safety and immunogenicity of a booster dose in older adults (≥59 years) primed with either MenACYW-TT or a quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (MPSV4)
Immune persistence of MenACYW-TT and MPSV4 after primary vaccination was also evaluated. During Stage I, the participants administered MPSV4 (n = 165) or MenACYW-TT (n = 236) 3 years previously were randomized 9:2 to receive either a MenACYW-TT booster or to have blood drawn for persistence only. Participants primed with MPSV4 or MenACYW-TT 6-7 years previously had blood drawn for antibody persistence only. A serum bactericidal assay using human complement was used to measure functional antibodies against each serogroup at baseline and, for those receiving a booster, 30 days post-vaccination (D30). Proportions of participants with seroresponse (post-vaccination titers ≥1:16 when baseline titers <1:8 or ≥ 4-fold increase when baseline titers ≥1:8) were determined. Safety data were collected up to D30.

Seroresponse rates for all serogroups at D30 ranged from 49.2% to 60.8% in the MPSV4-primed group, and 79.3-93.1% in the MenACYW-TT-primed group. MenACYW-TT induced Order now in each primed group. Geometric mean titers (GMTs) for serogroups C, W, and Y remained or trended higher than pre-vaccination levels at both 3 and 6-7 years after primary vaccination, indicating immune persistence.

Safety outcomes were comparable between groups. A MenACYW-TT booster was immunogenic and well tolerated in participants aged ≥59 years regardless of previous quadrivalent meningococcal vaccine received. The greatest immune responses occurred in those primed with Sanofi.

We observed waning antibody levels in 850 fully vaccinated (at least 14 days passed after second dose) blood donors using ELISA and surrogate virus neutralisation test. The Comirnaty-vaccinated group's (n = 593) antibody levels remained over the ELISA and sVNT positive cut-offs within the first 6 months.

The CoronaVac-vaccinated group's (n = 257) median antibody levels began to fall below the cut-offs 4 10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2022.27.2.2101197.

against a very virulent infectious bursal disease virus in chickens.industry worldwide. To prevent IBD virus (IBDV) infection, live virus vaccines have been widely used in chickens having wide-ranging levels of maternally derived antibodies. But, the risks of infection with other pathogens because of lesions related to atrophy of the bursa of Fabricius in vaccinated chickens are a concern. To resolve the problems, a recombinant turkey herpesvirus (HVT) vaccine expressing IBDV-VP2 protein (rHVT-IBD) has been developed. However, the induction of neutralizing antibodies by rHVT-IBD against a virulent IBDV might be delayed compared with that by the live IBD vaccine, leading to the high risks of IBDV infection for young chickens. To find the best selection of IBDV vaccine for the onset of immunity, we examine the protective efficacy of a novel in ovo-attenuated live IBDV (IBD-CA) vaccine and the rHVT-IBD vaccine in young chickens challenged with a very virulent IBDV (vvIBDV) strain.

We show that the protective efficacy of IBD-CA vaccine was higher than that of the rHVT-IBD vaccine in 14-day-old chickens challenged with the vvIBDV strain, leading to the risk of IBDV infection for young chickens when vaccinated with rHVT-IBD.
