Biomarker, Journal: Increasing FIM2/3 antigen-content improves efficacy of Bordetella pertussis vaccines in mice in vivo without altering vaccine-induced human reactogenicity biomarkers in vitro. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 7, 2019 ...In this study, we added fimbriae (FIM)2 and FIM3 protein to licensed 2-, 3- or 5-component aP vaccines (Pentavac®, Boostrix®, Adacel®, respectively) to assess whether an aP vaccine with enhanced FIM content demonstrates enhanced efficacy...In addition, potential reactogenicity was measured by biomarkers in a human whole blood assay (WBA) in vitro and benchmarked the responses against licensed whole cell pertussis (wP) and aP vaccines including Easyfive®, Pentavac® and Pentacel®...Increasing the amount of FIM2/3 proteins in aP formulations did not alter vaccine-induced biomarkers of potential reactogenicity including prostaglandin E, cytokines and chemokines in human newborn cord and adult peripheral blood tested in vitro. These results suggest that increasing the quantity of FIM proteins in current pertussis vaccine formulations may further enhance vaccine efficacy against B. pertussis infection without increasing the reactogenicity of the vaccine.
