Immunogenicity and safety of inactivated TZ84- vs. HM175-based hepatitis A vaccines in pediatric populations: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Individual studies indicate stronger and persistent long-term immunogenicity with TZ84-based than HM175-based hepatitis A vaccines. This systematic review and meta-analysis compared immunogenicity and safety of inactivated TZ84- and HM175-based hepatitis A vaccines in children and adolescents. Studies involving adults, immunocompromised populations, non-comparative designs, non-English publications, and studies with non-extractable outcomes were excluded. MEDLINE/PubMed, Google Scholar, other electronic databases, and grey literature were searched (September-October 2025). Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 (RoB 2) tool, and meta-analyses were performed where appropriate. Seven publications arising from four randomized cohorts (total participants: 3,282) reporting seroconversion rates (SCRs), geometric mean concentrations (GMCs), long-term seroprotection, and adverse events (AEs) were identified. Pooled analyses demonstrated higher SCRs and GMCs with TZ84 than HM175-based vaccines following both one and two doses. SCRs at 1 month [odds ratio (OR): 3.05; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.88-4.96] and GMCs at 7 months [standardized mean difference (SMD): 0.88; 95% CI: 0.18-1.58; p = .01] both favored TZ84-based vaccines. Long-term follow-up (up to 186 months/15.5 y) showed higher reported anti-HAV antibody concentrations for TZ84-based vaccines. The AEs were comparable between vaccine types (RR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.76-1.20; p = .69). Evidence was limited by the small number of unique randomized cohorts, geographic concentration in China, heterogeneity across studies, and reliance on surrogate immunogenicity outcomes. Overall, available evidence suggests that TZ84-based hepatitis A vaccines (HAPIBEV™/HEALIVE®) are associated with higher reported antibody responses and greater reported antibody persistence than the HM175-based vaccine (HAVRIX®) in children and adolescents, with comparable safety profiles.Registration: PROSPERO CRD420251154480.

Immunogenicity and safety of prophylactic HPV vaccines in people living with HIV: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a major global public health concern, causing genital warts and cancers of the cervix, anus, oropharynx, vulva, and penis. People living with HIV (PLWH) face a disproportionately elevated burden of HPV infection and HPV-related malignancies due to chronic immunosuppression. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis searching six databases from January 2006 to June 2026 without language restrictions. Twenty-five studies were included in the systematic review; 12 independent studies (N = 1,493 for HPV16) were included in the quantitative meta-analysis. Using a DerSimonian-Laird random-effects model with logit transformation, pooled seroconversion rates were: HPV16 97.8% (95% CI: 94.9-99.1%; I2 = 89.6%; 15 datasets), HPV18 94.2% (95% CI: 86.1-97.7%; I2 = 95.8%; 13 datasets), HPV6 97.0% (95% CI: 93.7-98.6%; I2 = 66.1%; 10 studies), and HPV11 97.1% (95% CI: 90.5-99.1%; I2 = 95.5%; 10 studies). CD4 count was the most consistently reported modifier of immunogenic response: HPV16 seroconversion was 98.5% in PLWH with CD4 > 350 cells/μL vs. 71.1% in those with CD4 ≤ 200 cells/μL (ACTG A5240). All three vaccine generations demonstrated high immunogenicity. Two doses of the nonavalent vaccine were non-inferior to three doses in virologically suppressed women (Papillon RCT). No vaccine-related serious adverse events were reported. GRADE certainty of evidence was moderate for HPV16, HPV6, and HPV11, and low for HPV18. Prophylactic HPV vaccination achieves high seroconversion rates across all vaccine generations in PLWH. CD4 count significantly modifies vaccine response, underscoring the importance of vaccination before severe immunosuppression develops. These findings support current international recommendations advocating HPV vaccination for all PLWH.

A multi-center, open-labelled, randomized controlled extended phase III non-inferiority clinical trial to evaluate the immunogenicity and tolerability of poliomyelitis vaccine (Vero cells), inactivated, Sabin strains administered with or without routine infant vaccines.

BACKGROUND: Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) has been reported to cause vaccine-derived poliovirus and vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis, and the limited global supply of conventional IPV has led many countries to rely on fractional-dose IPV regimens alongside OPV. The current study aims to assess the sIPV safety and immunogenicity when given concurrently with or in a staggered manner with routine immunization. METHODS: A multi-country, multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled, extended phase III non-inferiority clinical trial was conducted with 1442 healthy infants aged 6-8 weeks from Bangladesh and Pakistan enrolled and randomized into four groups, i.e., co-administration group 1 (group C1), co-administration group 2 (group C2), staggered administration group 1 (group S1) and staggered administration group 2 (group S2). Antibody levels were determined using the collected sera for immunogenicity evaluation. The difference in seroconversion rates between the coadministration group and the staggered administration group is compared using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel χ2 (CMH-χ2) test, stratified by study site. Non-inferiority is concluded if the lower bound of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the rate difference (coadministration group minus staggered administration group) is greater than -10%. The trial was registered prior to patient enrollment at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05850364), and the protocol and statistical analysis plan are available at https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05850364. The trial is closed to new participants. FINDINGS: The post-vaccination seroconversion rates for PV I were 90.3% (306/339) in group C1 and 87.0% (261/300) in group S1, for PV II, 91.7% (311/339) in group C1 and 91.3% (274/300) in group S1 and for PV III, 86.4% (293/339) in group C1 and 92.3% (277/300) in group S1. Among adverse reactions (ARs) reported within 7 days of vaccination, the incidence was similarly high in both the co-administration and staggered vaccination groups (92.8% vs. 95.5%). INTERPRETATION: Our results demonstrated favorable safety and immunogenicity of co-administration of sIPV with other routine infant vaccines according to a 3-dose primary immunization schedule.

Safety and immunogenicity of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine administered to adults: A phase 2, randomized, active-controlled trial.

We conducted a phase 2, randomized, active-controlled, observer-blind study (NCT05960097) among healthy adults ≥18 y of age who completed a primary COVID-19 mRNA vaccination series, with or without a booster, ≥3 months earlier. Participants were randomized (1:1:1:1:1) to either receive an investigational bivalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccine encoding ancestral D614G and Omicron BA.4-5 spike proteins (CV0701 mRNA vaccine) at one of three dose levels, an investigational monovalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccine encoding the Omicron BA.4-5 spike protein (CV0601 mRNA vaccine), or a licensed Original Wuhan/Omicron BA.4-5 bivalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. The primary objectives were to evaluate reactogenicity, safety and immunogenicity post-vaccination. Secondary and tertiary objectives were to further evaluate humoral and cell-mediated immunity post-vaccination. In total, 425 participants were vaccinated and 381 were included in the Day 29 per-protocol immunogenicity analysis. Most solicited events were mild to moderate. No vaccine-related serious adverse events or myocarditis/pericarditis cases were reported. For the CV0701 mRNA vaccine, a dose-dependent increase in Day 29 neutralizing titers against ancestral D614G and Omicron BA.4-5 was observed. Neutralizing titers against ancestral D614G and Omicron BA.4-5 declined by Days 91 and 181, but remained above baseline. Similar immune responses were observed for the CV0601 mRNA vaccine. At Day 8, CD4+ T cells (Th1 profile) increased in all study groups and CD8+ T cells increased in all study groups, except the lowest CV0701 dose group. The CV0701 and CV0601 mRNA vaccines elicited robust humoral and cellular immunity with an acceptable safety profile, comparable to a licensed, bivalent mRNA vaccine.

A phase I clinical study of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of SHR-2106, an anti-CD40 antibody, following single intravenous or subcutaneous administration in healthy participants.

BACKGROUND: SHR-2106 is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that blocks CD40-CD40L interactions and has demonstrated immunosuppressive activity and graft-prolonging effects in preclinical studies. This first-in-human Phase I study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of single intravenous or subcutaneous doses of SHR-2106 in healthy adults. METHODS: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase I study enrolled healthy participants. Fifty-one participants were enrolled in seven cohorts and received five intravenous doses (50-1200 mg) or two subcutaneous doses (300 and 600 mg). Safety, serum pharmacokinetics, CD40 occupancy on B cells, and anti-drug antibodies were assessed using standard clinical and bioanalytical methods. RESULTS: SHR-2106 demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile, and most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild to moderate laboratory abnormalities with incidence rates comparable to placebo. SHR-2106 exhibited nonlinear pharmacokinetics consistent with target-mediated drug disposition, with a dose-dependent increase in geometric mean terminal half-life following intravenous administration (1.83-10.7 days). Absolute bioavailability after subcutaneous administration was approximately 60%. CD40 occupancy exceeded 80% within 24 h at all doses, with saturation duration increasing from 7 to 70 days across the intravenous dose range and remaining comparable between routes at matched doses. Anti-drug antibody incidence decreased with increasing intravenous dose and did not significantly affect pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics. CONCLUSION: SHR-2106 was well tolerated and achieved rapid and sustained CD40 engagement, supporting dose and route selection for Phase II studies.
