Abstract
A Single High Dose of CVD 103-HgR Live Oral Cholera Vaccine Is More Immunogenic than a Standard Dose or than One or Two Doses of Shanchol Oral Killed Vaccine In a study by Sow et al. (e00265-17), Malian adults were randomly allocated to receive a single standard dose (108 CFU) or a high dose (109 CFU) of CVD 103-HgR live oral cholera vaccine or two doses (2 weeks apart) of Shanchol killed oral cholera vaccine. Inaba serum vibriocidal antibody responses (seroconversion rate, geometric mean titer [GMT], and fold rise) were compared. High-dose CVD 103-HgR exhibited significantly higher seroconversion rates than one or two doses of Shanchol and significantly higher GMTs than standard-dose CVD 103-HgR. A single high dose of CVD 103-HgR is recommended for accelerated evaluation in developing countries to assess effectiveness and practicality in field situations.
期刊介绍:
Cessation. First launched as Clinical and Diagnostic Laboratory Immunology (CDLI) in 1994, CVI published articles that enhanced the understanding of the immune response in health and disease and after vaccination by showcasing discoveries in clinical, laboratory, and vaccine immunology. CVI was committed to advancing all aspects of vaccine research and immunization, including discovery of new vaccine antigens and vaccine design, development and evaluation of vaccines in animal models and in humans, characterization of immune responses and mechanisms of vaccine action, controlled challenge studies to assess vaccine efficacy, study of vaccine vectors, adjuvants, and immunomodulators, immune correlates of protection, and clinical trials.
