Modelling the epidemiological impact of maternal respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccination in Australia
Background
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of respiratory illness among infants. A maternal RSV vaccine that protects young infants has recently been approved for registration in Australia. We estimated the population benefits of a future year-round maternal RSV vaccination program in terms of prevented RSV infections and hospitalisations in Australia.
Methods
We described RSV transmission using an age-structured compartmental model calibrated to Australian aggregated monthly RSV-coded hospitalisations in children aged <5 years. We accounted for mother and infant interactions in the model to capture herd effects more realistically. Using the model, we estimated the annual age-specific RSV infections and hospitalisations prevented for a range of assumptions for vaccine efficacy, coverage, and durability to estimate the future impact of year-round maternal RSV vaccination on infants and the wider population.
Results
Assuming base case vaccine efficacy, 6 months duration of protection and 70% coverage, RSV hospitalisations were predicted to fall by 60% (from 3.0 to 1.2 per 100 persons) in infants aged <3 months and 40% (from 1.9 to 1.1 per 100 persons) in 3–5-month-olds. These benefits were primarily due to direct protection to infants of vaccinated mothers. This vaccine program was predicted to reduce the population-level RSV infection by about 4%. Coverage and duration assumptions were influential, with higher coverage leading to larger declines in infants <6 months, and increased duration of protection leading to additional declines in infection and hospitalisation risk in older infants aged 6–8 months.
Conclusions
With vaccine uptake similar to that achieved for other maternal vaccines in Australia, a year-round RSV maternal vaccination program is predicted to approximately halve the number of RSV hospitalisations in infants younger than 6 months. There was a small herd effect predicted in the base case but potential for larger benefits if vaccine coverage or the duration of protection exceeds base case assumptions.
