Abstract The safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of 3 doses of ExPEC10V (VAC52416), a vaccine candidate to prevent invasive Escherichia coli disease, were assessed in a phase 1/2a study (NCT03819049). In Cohort 1, ExPEC10V was well tolerated; the high dose was selected as optimal and further characterized in Cohort 2. Cohort 2 comprised a maximum 28-day screening, vaccination (Day 1), double-blind 181-day follow-up, and open-label long-term follow-up until Year 1. Healthy participants (≥60 years) with a history of urinary tract infection (UTI) within 5 years were randomized to receive ExPEC10V or placebo. The primary endpoint evaluated the safety and reactogenicity of ExPEC10V (solicited local and systemic AEs [until Day 15]; unsolicited AEs [until Day 30], SAEs [until Day 181], and immunogenicity [Day 30]) via multiplex electrochemiluminescent (ECL) and multiplex opsonophagocytic assay (MOPA). 416 participants (ExPEC10V, n = 278; placebo, n = 138) were included (mean age [SD], 68.8 [6.52] years; female, 79.6%; White, 96.1%). The incidence of solicited AEs was higher with ExPEC10V (local, 50.0% [n = 139]; systemic, 50.0% [n = 139]) than placebo (15.9% [n = 22]; 38.4% [n = 53]); rates of unsolicited AEs were comparable (ExPEC10V, 28.4% [n = 79]; placebo, 26.1% [n = 36]). No vaccine-related SAEs or deaths were reported. ExPEC10V elicited a robust antibody-mediated immunogenic response across all serotypes with ECL (Day 30 geometric mean fold increase, 2.33–8.18) and demonstrated functional opsonophagocytic killing activity across all measured serotypes (Day 30 geometric mean fold increase, 1.81–9.68). ExPEC10V exhibited an acceptable safety profile and a robust vaccine-induced functional immunogenic response in participants with a history of UTI.
