Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the immunity persistence five years later after immunization with Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) conjugate vaccine in healthy infants/children aged 3 months to 5 years in China. Methods: The children were subjects who completed the whole-schedule immunization in the phase Ⅲ clinical trial in Lianshui county of Jiangsu povince was selected for the collection of blood samples at 5 years after vaccination from November to December, 2019. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect Hib polyribosyl-ribitol-phosphate antibody (anti-Hib-PRP), and the long-term/short-term protection rate, geometric mean concentration (GMC) and geometric mean concentration increase fold (GMFI) of serum anti-Hib-PRP were calculated. Results: A total of 580 children were enrolled in this study, of which 158, 207 and 215 belonged to 3-5 month age group, 6-11 month age group and 1-5 year age group, respectively. The short-term (≥0.15 μg/ml)/long-term (≥1.0 μg/ml) protection rates of serum anti-PRP in the three groups after immunization were 89.24%, 90.34% and 98.60%, respectively; the GMC were 3.95 μg/ml, 3.11 μg/ml and 10.01 μg/ml respectively, and the GMFI were 29.04, 11.01 and 3.26 respectively. Conclusions: Hib conjugate vaccine can still have good immunogenicity after 5 years of primary immunization in healthy infants/children aged 3 months to 5 years in China.
