CLINICAL TRIAL OF TYPHOID Vi CONJUGATE VACCINE (PEDA TYPH™)

Introduction
The studies were undertaken to assess the immunogenicity and safety in infants and older children of a new vaccine-Vi polysaccharide conjugated with Tetanus toxoid protein. This new technology has avoided the use of recombinant proteins for conjugation. The vaccine has passed the required safety & immunological parameters in animals. The permission to conduct clinical trial Phase III in human was cleared by the Drugs Controller General (India) after necessary evaluation.

Open , multicentric, controlled & comparative study was undertaken. The three consecutive batches of Vi conjugate typhoid vaccine (Peda TyphTM), used for conducting the clinical trial, were found to be of standard quality by Central Drugs Laboratory, Central Research Institute, Kasauli, H.P. of Government of India. The Vi polysaccharide typhoid vaccine manufactured by BIO-MED (P) LTD., was also tested for comparative assessment studies. The study protocols were approved by the ethics committee of eminent medical colleges located in three widely separated zones of India.

Based on the above data, the principle investigators concluded that Peda Typh™ (Vi Conjugated Typhoid vaccine) was safe & well tolerated in all age groups including infants.

Immunological Response
Evaluation of Immunogenicity :
Blood samples(1-2ml) were collected by venipuncture before vaccination on day 0(pre-immune) and 4 weeks after vaccination (post immune). lgG anti Vi antibodies were detemined by ELISA.

ELISA test : (Assay for assessment of immune response in paired serum samples) ELISA test kit was validated and calibrated as per the guidelines of good laboratory practice.

Serum lgG Vi antibodies were assayed by ELISA and expressed in ELISA units relative to a standard reference. The unitage of the standard reference was assigned by NICHD, NIH, USA.

Preparation of standard reference curve and calculation of lgG antibodies was done by program of ELISA version 2.0, Centers for Disease control , Atlanta(USA).

Biostatistical Analysis : Biostatistical analysis of the clinical trial of Peda Typh™ was done by Dr.R.M. Pandey Ph.D.,FRSS(U.K.),Professor and Head, Department of Bio-Statistics, All India Institute of Medical Sciences ,N.Delhi. Biostatistical analysis proved that Peda Typh™ vaccine is safe and immunogenic. The antibody titers of the sera from 100% of the subjects (from all three centers) showed a four fold or greater rise in antibody titer of each group after immunization .No statistically significant differences were found in male and female children.

Results are graphically presented in figure 2. The lgG anti-Vi antibodies of Peda Typh^TM were 97.425 ELISA units in infants and children 3 months to 24 months of age. The geometric mean (95% confidence interval) of all volunteers was 70.32(62.86-78.66).

The Vi conjugate typhoid vaccine (Peda Typh™) under clinical trial have been found to be highly immunogenic in infants and children less than 2 years of age in which unconjugated Vi polysaccharide typhoid vaccine is known to induce very low or nil immunogenic response.

The efficacy of Vi conjugate typhoid vaccine in clinical trials conducted in Vietnam have been found to be 89% over the 46 months period.

On comparing the data of clinical trial of Vi conjugate typhoid vaccine developed by N.I.H (Published in The New England Journal vol.344 no. 17, 2001 pg.No.1263-1269) with Peda Typh™ , it was found that the geometric mean post immune lgG(25-75 percentile) are statistically equivalent.

Immunizations not only prevent mortality and morbidity. They also reduce the expenditure of public and private resources. The latest generation Vi conjugate typhoid vaccine is an effective tool to control the emerging pattern of typhoid fever in children and infants <2 years of age.

The above study has been published in :
Garg P., Garg S., Sharma M.K (2014), Clinical trial of Tetanus Toxoid Conjugated Vi Polysaccharide Typhoid Vaccine in infants and young children, Sharma et al (2014) Biotechnology International 7(4) : 90-100.

Further post licensure studies on Peda Typh™ has been done in SRM Medical college Chennai by Dr. Balaji Chinnasami et al.

Dr. Monjori Mitra et.al conducted a large scale Safety Immunogenicity & Efficacy study in Municipal school children in Kolkata (highly endemic area).

The studies have been published in :

The highlights of the result of the studies are as under :

• Efficacy of Peda Typh has been found to be 100% versus 33 cases of typhoid in control group over a follow up period of 1 year.
• One dose of the vaccine was found to give protective immunity in infants & children . No significant advantage of two doses regimen over one dose was found.”as per Dr. Chinnasami in his study “ A study on Longevity of Immune Response after vaccination with Salmonella typhi Vi Conjugate Vaccine (Peda Typh™) in children.
• Serum analysis of post licensure follow up study at SRM Medical College using Peda Typh™ showed adequate immune response 30 months post vaccination with Single dose – 14 (4.8 – 29.8) µg/ml (which is much greater than earlier seroprotective level 3.52 Elisa unit equivalent to 4.36mcg/ml or current seroprotective level 1.4 µg/ml-2µg/ml).

VACCINATION GUIDELINES

Day 0 indicates date of first injection.

1. Pre-exposure immunization

The vaccine is recommended for high risk professionals e.g. hunters, veterinarians, animal keeper/handler, butcher, rabies laboratory personnel, army professional, postmen, municipal workers, forest workers,  subjects staying or visiting in rabies endemic areas or at a continuous risk of exposure. A serological test is recommended (every 6 months) in subjects at risk of continuous exposure. For subject at frequent risk WHO recommends antibody titer estimation annually. If titers are below protective threshold of 0.5 IU/ml, one booster dose should be administered.

A booster injection should be administered after one year of first primary Pre-exposure immunization and subsequent booster every five years.

A.1 Administration by intramuscular route

Pre-exposure immunization consists of a series of three intramuscular injections of 1 ml each (in deltoid muscle or in the anterolateral region of the thigh in small children) on day 0, 7, 21 or 28. A few days variation is not important. It should not be given by intragluteal injection.

A.2 Administration by intradermal route

Pre-exposure immunization consists of a series of three intradermal injections of 0.1 ml each (side of the deltoid) on day 0, 7, 21 or 28. A few days variation is not important. Vaccine when given intradermally should raise a visible and palpable bleb in the skin and shall only be done where trained personnel is available e.g. hospitals / Rabies vaccination clinics. In the event that the dose is inadvertently given subcutaneously or intra-muscularly or in the event of spillage, a new dose should be given intradermally in nearby site.

1. Post-exposure immunization in unimmunized or incompletely immunized subjects

As with all vaccines, SURE RAB^TM may not protect 100% of people vaccinated.

B.1 Administration by intramuscular route

Post-exposure immunization consists of intramuscular injections of 1 ml each (in deltoid muscle or in the anterolateral region of the thigh in small children) on day 0, 3, 7, 14, 28 & 90 (optional). It should not be given by intragluteal injection.

B.2 Administration by intradermal route

Post -exposure immunization consists of intradermal injections of 0.1 ml each at two locations (one in each upper deltoid region, left & right) on day 0, 3, 7 & 28 (Updated Thai Red Cross Schedule 2-2-2-0-2). Vaccine when given intradermally should raise a visible and palpable bleb in the skin and shall only be done where trained personnel is available e.g. hospitals / Rabies vaccination clinics.

1. Post-exposure immunization for previously vaccinated subjects

Re-exposure following post-exposure treatment or if pre-exposure vaccination was performed (primary vaccination or booster within 5 years previously) administer two booster doses intramuscularly (1ml)/intradermally (0.1 ml at 1 site) on day 0 and day 3.  Treatment with rabies immunoglobulin is not necessary. This does not apply to immunodeficient subjects.

If pre or post exposure vaccination was performed more than 5 years before, if it is incomplete, in case of doubt, or in case of neural tissue vaccine used the subjects vaccination status is not considered as complete and a full post exposure treatment should be started.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″ el_class=”block8″][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1512429922882{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”3352″ img_size=”24×24″][vc_column_text]SIDE EFFECT :

(Haemophilus type b conjugate vaccine)

Peda Hib™ is a highly purified vaccine prepared from capsular polysaccharide (polyribitol phosphate) short named PRP, covalently bonded to tetanus toxoid protein. Addition of lactose and freeze-drying has resulted in a highly stable vaccine.
This vaccine induces ‘T’- cell dependent immune response in infants that is essential for appropriate initial humoral antibody response and priming for booster effects (anamnestic response) of subsequent vaccinations. Such immune response is lacking in vaccines prepared from unconjugated PRP. Peda Hib™ has been manufactured using the latest technology to remove contaminants eg. L.P.S. pyrogens to make it the least reactogenic but highly immunogenic vaccine. Thus Peda Hib™ is the latest generation vaccine of the best quality in its class.
Peda Hib™ conforms to I.P.
