For children born after 1 January 2005, use of the Sabin oral polio vaccine in combination with the enhanced-potency Salk inactivated polio vaccine as part of the routine vaccination schedule was discontinued. The schedule now includes only IPV. In September 2005, a fifth dose of pertussis vaccine was added for pupils in their second year of elementary school. This article describes the reasons for these changes, which have rendered Israel's routine vaccination program one of the most effective in the world.

This study evaluated GSK's combined DTPa-IPV vaccine (Infanrix-IPV) given as a fifth consecutive acellular pertussis booster dose in conjunction with the second dose of MMR vaccine (Priorix) in children aged 4-6 years. The immunogenicity and reactogenicity of this vaccine regimen was compared with separate injections of DTPa and IPV when given concomitantly with MMR. A cohort of 362 children previously primed with four doses of DTPa and OPV, and a single dose of MMR were randomized to receive either DTPa-IPV+MMR (N=181) or DTPa+IPV+MMR (N=181). Antibody concentrations were measured prior to and 1 month after the booster dose. After immunisation all subjects from both groups had seroprotective antibody levels against diphtheria, tetanus and the three poliovirus serotypes, > or = 96% showed vaccine response to PT, FHA and PRN, all were seropositive to mumps and rubella, and all but one subject were seropositive to measles. Immunogenicity results for each component antigen were similar for DTPa-IPV and separately co-administered DTPa and IPV. Local reactions were common with 24.0% and 31.1% of children experiencing swelling >50mm at the DTPa-IPV and DTPa injection sites, respectively. The DTPa-IPV combination did not increase the incidence or intensity of adverse events compared with separately administered DTPa+IPV. The response to the concomitantly administered MMR vaccine was similar in the two groups and similar to previously reported responses for a second dose of MMR. This combined DTPa-IPV vaccine has a similar reactogenicity profile to DTPa, is immunogenic when given as a booster dose at 4-6 years of age, and has no impact on the immunogenicity of a co-administered second dose of MMR vaccine.

Acellular pertussis-containing combination vaccines are widely used in the developed world for the control of pertussis and have been successful in controlling disease in preschool-aged children. Combination vaccines formulated for use in adolescents and adults have been developed more recently and are increasingly being implemented for the control of pertussis in these age groups. One such family of products is PENTACEL (Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccine reconstituted with component pertussis vaccine and diphtheria and tetanus toxoids adsorbed combined with inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine, DTaP-IPV-Hib), for use in young children, and ADACEL (tetanus and diphtheria toxoids adsorbed combined with component pertussis vaccine, dTap) for use in adolescents and adults. These products have been demonstrated to be safe, immunogenic and effective for the control of pertussis and the other included diseases.

Combination vaccines decrease the number of injections and improve parental satisfaction and vaccination schedule compliance. In a phase 1, randomized, partially-blinded, single-dose booster study, we evaluated two formulations of an investigational liquid hexavalent vaccine containing diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis (5-component), inactivated poliovirus, Haemophilus influenzae b conjugate and hepatitis B surface antigen (DTaP-IPV-Hib-HBV) in 60 healthy toddlers, 15 to 18 months of age, who had been primed with three doses of a licensed pentavalent diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis (5-component), inactivated poliovirus, Haemophilus influenzae b conjugate (DTaP-IPV//PRP-T) vaccine. The DTaP-IPV//PRP-T vaccine was used as a control in 30 subjects. The investigational formulations, which contained the same DTaP-IPV components, differed only in Hib (content and conjugate) and HBV (content) (PRP-T/HBV10 = 12 mug Hib tetanus toxoid conjugate with 10 microg HBsAg; PRP-OMPC/HBV15 = 6 microg Hib Neisseria meningitidis outer membrane protein complex with 15 microg HBsAg). Injection-site pain, redness and swelling were reported by 46.7%, 46.7%, and 20.0% of the licensed vaccine recipients, 43.3%, 43.3%, and 26.7% of PRP-T/HBV10 recipients and 70.0%, 46.7%, and 46.7% of PRP-OMPC/HBV15 recipients, respectively. Fever > or = 37.8 degrees C and irritability were reported by 0% and 16.7% of licensed vaccine recipients, 10.3% and 23.3% of PRP-T/HBV10 recipients and 30.0% and 16.7% of PRP-OMPC/HBV15 recipients, respectively. There were no apparent differences between the groups in the proportion of participants achieving predefined, threshold or seroprotective immune responses. Geometric mean antibody levels for all antigens were similar except for anti-PRP levels, which were 19.0 microg/mL in recipients of the licensed vaccine, 40.8 microg/mL in PRP-T/HBV10 recipients and 9.4 microg/mL in PRP-OMPC/HBV15 recipients. We conclude that the hexavalent formulations appear generally well tolerated and immunogenic as a booster dose in these toddlers.

A DTaP-IPV//PRP-T combination vaccine (Pentacel) has been universally used in Canada to provide immunization against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, and Haemophilus influenzae type b with single injections at 2, 4, 6 and 18 months of age. This randomized, multicenter study was conducted to evaluate administration of a fourth dose of DTaP-IPV//PRP-T at 15 to 18 months of age, similar to the US immunization schedule. Participants who had received three doses of DTaP-IPV//PRP-T by 8 months of age were enrolled at 12 months and randomized to receive a fourth dose at 15, 16, 17 or 18 months. Antibody levels for each vaccine antigen were measured prior to and four weeks following booster vaccination. Overall, 1782 subjects were immunized and monitored for adverse events, and 735 were evaluated for immune responses. Preimmunization antibody levels differed minimally by age, for all antigens. The immune responses elicited by DTaP-IPV//PRP-T were comparable between participants vaccinated at 15 or 16 months and those vaccinated at 17 or 18 months, as demonstrated by specific antibody geometric mean titers, seroprotection/seroresponse rates, and reverse cumulative distribution curves. The fourth dose was well tolerated in all age groups. Toddlers at 15, 16, 17 or 18 months of age are equally suitable recipients for booster immunization with the DTaP-IPV//PRP-T vaccine.

The pre-clinical immunogenicity of a combination vaccine containing 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate (13vPnC) vaccine (serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F and 23F conjugated to CRM197) and nine-valent meningococcal B PorA vaccine (NonaMen; serosubtypes P1.7,16; P1.5-1,2-2; P1.19,15-1; P1.5-2,10; P1.12-1,13; P1.7-2,4; P1.22,14; P1.7-1,1 and P1.18-1,3,6), and any potential immunological interference between pneumococcal and MenB components of the vaccine were evaluated. NIH mice were immunized twice subcutaneously with the vaccines combined in one syringe, or given individually. Combining 13vPnC vaccine with NonaMen vaccine in one syringe had no negative effect on the induced antibody response against any MenB serosubtypes compared to separate injection of the vaccines, and the anti-pneumococcal antibody responses were enhanced. Furthermore, co-administration of the combination vaccine with a combined diphtheria/tetanus/acellular pertussis/inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine/Haemophilus influenzae type b-TT conjugate (DTaP/IPV-Hib) vaccine to New Zealand white rabbits at a different injection site did not affect the anti-pneumococcal polysaccharide and anti-PorA antibody titres. We conclude that no immunological interference was observed by combined administration of pneumococcal conjugate and meningococcal B vaccines in one syringe.

In Canada, the fifth dose of the routine childhood immunization schedule against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and polio is given at 4-6 years of age. Up to 30% of children may have significant local reactions (redness, swelling) and this may be related to pertussis and diphtheria antigen content. We sought to determine if a combination product with lower content of pertussis and diphtheria toxoids (dTap) would result in fewer local reactions and not have inferior immunogenicity to a combination vaccine with higher pertussis and diphtheria content (diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated polio virus, DTaP-IPV). Healthy children aged 4-6 years with complete primary immunization series and a fourth dose of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids component pertussis inactivated polio and Haemophilus influenzae type B conjugate vaccine were randomized to one dose of dTap, followed in 4-6 weeks by one dose of IPV or control DTaP-IPV. Immediate reactions within 30 min, solicited injection site and systemic reactions within 14 days, and unsolicited adverse events (AE) within 6 weeks post-vaccination were monitored. Serum was collected prior to immunization, and 4-6 weeks after vaccine for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis antibodies (Ab). Sample size was designed to detect > or =10% difference in injection site erythema, pain or swelling between groups 593 children at eight Canadian sites completed the study; no participant withdrew because of an AE. All safety endpoints on days 0-14 were less frequent in children randomized to the dTap than DTaP-IPV group: erythema (34.6% versus 51.7%), swelling (24.2% versus 33.8%) and pain (39.6% versus 67.2%). Fever was also less common (8.72% versus 16.9%). All children in both study groups had seroprotective Ab levels to diphtheria and tetanus at 4-6 weeks (> or =0.10 IU/mL). The majority of children in each vaccine arm had a four-fold increase in pertussis antibodies. Fever and injection site reactions are less common in 4-6 year-old-children who receive a dTap vaccine compared to DTaP-IPV, without inferior immunogenicity.

The immunogenicity and reactogenicity of booster vaccination with GSK Biologicals' hexavalent DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine was assessed in toddlers aged 12-18 months previously primed with the same combination (N=341), or with DTPa-IPV/Hib and HBV administered separately (N=102; Trials 217744/059 and 217744/096). Antibody persistence at age 4-6 years was also assessed in children who had received a 4th consecutive dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine or separate DTPa-IPV/Hib and HBV vaccines in this study and in another study conducted under similar conditions in Germany. Prior to booster vaccination in the second year of life, antibody concentrations and seroprotection rates were similar irrespective of the primary vaccine used. One month after boosting with DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib, substantial antibody increases were observed against all vaccine antigens indicative of previous immune priming. Seropositivity and booster response rates against all antigens were 97.4-100%. Reactogenicity following booster vaccination with DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib was similar regardless of the primary regimen used. Three to four years after administration of the 4th DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib dose, >90% vaccinees had persistent protective antibody concentrations against diphtheria, hepatitis B, Hib and the three poliovirus types. Anti-tetanus antibody concentrations were > or = 0.1 IU/ml in 76.4% subjects and seropositivity for pertussis antibodies ranged from 34.5% for PT to 98.9% for FHA. In conclusion, the combined hexavalent DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine is immunogenic and safe when used for boosting in the second year of life, regardless of the primary vaccine used, and offers sustained protection during early childhood and beyond.

All infants in the Netherlands, which are born after March 2006, receive additional vaccinations at the age of 2, 3, 4 and 11 months to protect them against pneumococcal infections. During the same visit to a consultation bureau, the children also receive a combination vaccine against diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, poliomyelitis and Haemophilus influenzae (DTPa-IPV-Hib). Children of which at least one parent was born in a country where hepatitis B occurs relatively often are also vaccinated in the Netherlands against hepatitis B. This currently pertains to about 15% of all newborns. These children now receive a new combination vaccine in which a hepatitis B component has been added to the DTPa-IPV-Hib components. They will receive this combination vaccine 4 times. This combination vaccine is given during the same visit as the pneumococcal vaccination. Although pneumococcal vaccination may have a somewhat negative effect on the immune response to hepatitis B, it is expected that the new 4-fold vaccination schedule will induce good and long-lasting protection against hepatitis B in the vast majority of the children. About 700 children are born out of mothers infected with hepatitis B each year in the Netherlands. In the new vaccination schedule, they now receive 5 active vaccinations against hepatitis B and are examined serologically on an individual basis in order to detect breakthrough infections. This will also generate greater insight into the efficacy of the different vaccination schemes and intervention programmes to prevent vertical transmission of the virus.

This study was undertaken to assess the co-administration of an experimental measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine (MMRV, GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals) with a combined diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-hepatitis B-inactivated poliovirus-Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate (DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib) vaccine in healthy children. Healthy children aged 12-23 months (N = 451) were randomised to one of three parallel groups to receive one dose of MMRV vaccine co-administered with a booster dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (co-administration group), or one dose of MMRV vaccine alone (MMRV group), or a booster dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine alone (DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib group). No differences in seroconversion rates for measles (>95%), mumps (>80%), rubella (>99%) and varicella (>98%) were seen between the co-administration group and the MMRV group. No differences in geometric mean titres (GMTs) were observed between the two groups with the exception of anti-measles titres, which were observed to be higher in the MMRV group than in the co-administration group (4,419.2 vs. 3,441.8 mIU/ml respectively). Immune response to the booster dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine was observed to be similar in the co-administration group and the DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib group. Co-administration of the MMRV vaccine with a booster dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine was well-tolerated and did not exacerbate the reactogenicity profile of either vaccine. In summary, GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' experimental MMRV vaccine was immunogenic and well-tolerated when administered with a booster dose of DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine during the second year of life. The ability to co-administer the MMRV vaccine at the same time as other routine childhood immunisation vaccines could increase compliance with varicella vaccination in countries where this vaccine is already recommended and may facilitate implementation of varicella vaccination elsewhere.
