Popis: Pertussis is increasingly recognized as an important cause of cough illness in adolescents and adults.To evaluate the safety and antibody response to a single dose of an adult formulation of a five component (pertussis toxoid, filamentous hemagglutinin, pertactin, fimbriae 2 and 3) acellular pertussis vaccine (aP) combined with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids (TdaP) and inactivated poliovirus vaccine (TdaP-IPV) in adolescents and adults and to assess the response to a second dose of the acellular pertussis vaccine in a subset of the adults.The study addressed 1207 healthy participants (736 adults and 466 adolescents) recruited in five Canadian communities.In a randomized, observer-blind, controlled clinical trial, adult participants received Td followed at a separate visit by aP, TdaP followed by IPV or TdaP-IPV; adolescents received Td-IPV followed at a separate visit by aP or TdaP-IPV. A subgroup of adults was given a booster of aP 1 month after TdaP.Antibody titers measured before and 1 month after each immunization; adverse events enumerated at 24 h, 72 h and 8 to 10 days.The aP vaccine given by itself was associated with adverse events less frequently than were Td, Td-IPV, TdaP or TdaP-IPV vaccines, but reaction rates did not differ significantly among the latter products. The antibody response against Bordetella pertussis antigens was vigorous in all groups, although adults given the TdaP-IPV vaccine had lower antibody titers against filamentous hemagglutinin, pertactin, diphtheria and tetanus antibodies than those given TdaP vaccine. Similarly adolescents given TdaP-IPV had lower antibody titers against pertussis toxin, filamentous hemagglutinin, fimbriae and agglutinins than those given Td-IPV and aP alone. A second dose of acellular pertussis vaccine was not associated with increased adverse events in adults but elicited increased antibody titers over that achieved by a single dose only against pertussis toxin.This adult formulation five component aP vaccine given as TdaP-IPV is safe and immunogenic in adolescents and adults and is a candidate vaccine for adolescent and adult immunization programs.
