Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the immunogenicity and immune persistence of purified Vero cells rabies vaccine (PVRV) with Zagreb and Essen regimen.Methods:Prospective study: Patients with first Class II exposure to rabies were recruited from the Dog Injury Cinic of Guangxi Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Guangxi CDC) and randomly divided into the Zagreb (2-1-1) and Essen (1-1-1-1-1) regimen group. All patients were inoculated with the vaccines from the same manufacturer and batch, and 3 ml serum was collected at the 45th day and in 1-year, 2-year and 3-year after immunization. Rapid fluorescent inhibition test (RFFIT) was used to detect rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA). The attenuation of RVNA positive rate and geometric mean titer (GMT) with time was analyzed. Retrospective study: The informed consents for rabies vaccine in the Dog Injury Clinic of Guangxi CDC were checked out. The patients who were injected with PVRV (same manufacturer but unlimited batch) but without passive immune agents for the first time within 3 years were selected and divided into 1-year, 2-year and 3-year group. Each group was further divided into Zagreb and Essen regimen group. The serum (3 ml) was collected at 1 year, 2 years and 3 years after immunization and detected the RVNA by RFFIT.Results:Prospective study: The RVNA positive rates on the 45th day and in 1-year, 2-year and 3-year after immunizationin in the Zagreb and Essen regimen group were 100%, 95%, 85%, 80% and 98.25%, 89.47%, 89.47%, 85.96%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in the RVNA positive rates at the same time point between the two regimen groups ( P>0.05). The RVNA GMT on the 45th day and in 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year in the Zagreb and Essen regimen group were 11.32 IU/ml, 1.69 IU/ml, 1.30 IU/ml, 1.30 IU/m and 13.18 IU/ml, 2.13 IU/ml, 1.87 IU/ml, 1.84 IU/m, respectively. There was no significant difference in the RVNA GMT levels at the same time point between the two regimen groups ( F=1.971, P=0.164). The RVNA GMT levels in the two regimen groups had the same trend of attenuation over time (time*group F=0.702, P=0.435). Retrospective study: The RVNA positive rates in 1-year, 2-year and 3-year after immunization in the Zagreb and Essen regimen group were 100%, 95%, 91.43%和94.73%, 86.21%, 87.5%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in the RVNA positive rates at the same time point between the two regimen groups ( P>0.05). The RVNA GMT in 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year groups after immunization in the Zagreb and Essen regimen group were 2.65 IU/ml, 2.03 IU/ml, 1.57 IU/ml和3.2 IU/ml, 2.58 IU/ml, 2.45 IU/ml, respectively. There was no significant difference in the RVNA GMT levels at the same time point between the two regimen groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The PVRV showed the same excellent immunogenicity and immune persistence after the vaccination with the Zagreb and Essen regimens.
