    Abstract: Establishing the safety and immunogenicity of a hepatitis E virus vaccine in multiple populations could facilitate broader access and prevent maternal and infant mortality. Methods We conducted a phase 1, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled (4:1 vaccine: placebo) trial of 30 µg HEV-239 (Hecolin®, Xiamen Innovax Biotech Company Limited, China) administered intramuscularly in healthy US adults aged 18-45 years. Participants were vaccinated on days 1, 29, and 180. Participants reported solicited local and systemic reactions for 7 days following vaccination and were followed through 12 months after enrollment for safety and immunogenicity (IgG, IgM). Results Solicited local and systemic reactions between treatment and placebo group were similar and overall mild. No participants experienced serious adverse events related to HEV-239. All participants receiving HEV-239 seroconverted at one month following the first dose and remained seropositive throughout the study. HEV-239 elicited a robust hepatitis E IgG response that peaked one month following the second dose (Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) 6.16; 95% CI 4.40-8.63), was boosted with the third dose (GMC 11.50; 95% CI 7.90-16.75) and persisted through 6 months. Conclusions HEV-239 is safe and elicits a durable immune response through at least 6 months after the third dose in healthy US adults. Clinical Trials Registration NCT03827395.

    Abstract: Data are limited about the burden of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-related hospitalizations in older adults and those with COPD or CHF. Methods We conducted prospective surveillance at two hospitals from October 2018 to March 2019 for adults ≥50 years of age admitted with acute respiratory infections (ARI) and adults of any age with COPD or CHF-related admissions. Adults were eligible if they were residents of an 8 county region in Atlanta, Georgia. Asymptomatic adults ≥50 years of age were enrolled as controls. Nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs were tested for RSV and influenza (Flu) using BioFire® FilmArray® Respiratory Viral Panel (RVP) and acute/convalescent serology was obtained for RSV antibodies detection by enzyme immunoassay against RSV lysate. Standard of care results were included for enrollees. We compare the number of RSV+, Flu+ and RSV−/Flu− cases along with demographic features and outcomes. Results We screened 12,453 patients to identify 1,515 eligible adults of which 617 (41%) were enrolled. The most common reasons for failing to enroll were refusal (676, 75%) and inability to obtain informed consent (221, 25%). Of the 617, 36 (6%) were RSV+ and 41 (7%) were Flu+. RSV was detected in 1/126 (0.8%) and Flu in 0/126 healthy controls. RSV+ occurred earlier in surveillance and peaked at a higher frequency (figure). Clinical characteristics and outcomes are in the table. In a convenience sample, a four-fold rise in RSV antibody titer was detected among 8/15 RSV+, 0/42 RSV−/Flu−, and 0/42 healthy controls. Conclusion The burden and outcomes for RSV are similar to Flu in adults admitted to the hospital with ARI, CHF, or COPD. A vaccine for RSV would be beneficial.

    Abstract: Vaccination is the primary strategy to reduce influenza burden. Influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) can vary annually depending on circulating strains. Methods We used a test-negative case-control study design to estimate influenza VE against laboratory-confirmed influenza-related hospitalizations among children (aged 6 months–17 years) across 5 influenza seasons in Atlanta, Georgia, from 2012–2013 to 2016–2017. Influenza-positive cases were randomly matched to test-negative controls based on age and influenza season in a 1:1 ratio. We used logistic regression models to compare odds ratios (ORs) of vaccination in cases to controls. We calculated VE as [100% × (1 – adjusted OR)] and computed 95% confidence intervals (CIs) around the estimates. Results We identified 14 596 hospitalizations of children who were tested for influenza using the multiplex respiratory molecular panel; influenza infection was detected in 1017 (7.0%). After exclusions, we included 512 influenza-positive cases and 512 influenza-negative controls. The median age was 5.9 years (interquartile range, 2.7–10.3), 497 (48.5%) were female, 567 (55.4%) were non-Hispanic Black, and 654 (63.9%) children were unvaccinated. Influenza A accounted for 370 (72.3%) of 512 cases and predominated during all 5 seasons. The adjusted VE against influenza-related hospitalizations during 2012–2013 to 2016–2017 was 51.3% (95% CI, 34.8% to 63.6%) and varied by season. Influenza VE was 54.7% (95% CI, 37.4% to 67.3%) for influenza A and 37.1% (95% CI, 2.3% to 59.5%) for influenza B. Conclusions Influenza vaccination decreased the risk of influenza-related pediatric hospitalizations by  & gt;50% across 5 influenza seasons.

    Abstract: Data are limited on influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) in the prevention of influenza-related hospitalizations in older adults and those with underlying high-risk comorbidities. Methods We conducted a prospective, test-negative, case-control study at 2 US hospitals from October 2018–March 2020 among adults aged ≥50 years hospitalized with acute respiratory illnesses (ARIs) and adults ≥18 years admitted with congestive heart failure (CHF) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations. Adults were eligible if they resided in 1 of 8 counties in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. Nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs were tested using BioFire FilmArray (bioMérieux, Inc.) respiratory panel, and standard-of-care molecular results were included when available. Influenza vaccination history was determined from the Georgia vaccine registry and medical records. We used multivariable logistic regression to control for potential confounders and to determine 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results Among 3090 eligible adults, 1562 (50.6%) were enrolled. Of the 1515 with influenza vaccination history available, 701 (46.2%) had received vaccination during that season. Influenza was identified in 37 (5.3%) vaccinated versus 78 (9.6%) unvaccinated participants. After adjustment for age, race/ethnicity, immunosuppression, month, and season, pooled VE for any influenza-related hospitalization in the eligible study population was 63.1% (95% CI, 43.8–75.8%). Adjusted VE against influenza-related hospitalization for ARI in adults ≥50 years was 55.9% (29.9–72.3%) and adjusted VE against influenza-related CHF/COPD exacerbation in adults ≥18 years was 80.3% (36.3–93.9%). Conclusions Influenza vaccination was effective in preventing influenza-related hospitalizations in adults aged ≥50 years and those with CHF/COPD exacerbations during the 2018–2020 seasons.
