Pediatric Inactivated Influenza Vaccine Safety VAERS Reports for Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (TIV) in Infants/Toddlers Ann McMahon, MD, MS March 22, 2005

BACKGROUND: Influenza Deaths in Children Aged <18 Years 2003-2004 143 influenza-confirmed deaths through 4/5/04 58 (40%) in children aged < 2 years 110 (77%) had no high-risk medical condition 101 with known vaccination status of which 4 had been completely vaccinated

July, 1983 the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommended that all children with high-risk medical conditions > 6 months of age be vaccinated with TIV. April, 2002 ACIP encouraged providers to vaccinate healthy children 6-23 months of age with TIV. Objective: Compare adverse events reported to VAERS in children aged < 2 years before and after 2002 ACIP Guidance.

Limitations of Data from VAERS Usually not possible to assess whether a vaccine caused the reported adverse event: Reported diagnoses are not verified Lack of consistent diagnostic criteria Wide range in data quality Underreporting Inadequate denominator data No unvaccinated control group

What is a serious report? A “Serious” Report has one or more of the following: Patient died Life threatening illness Required hospitalization Resulted in prolongation of hospitalization Resulted in permanent disability

NUMBER VAERS REPORTS PER YEAR IN CHILDREN <2 YEARS OF AGE AFTER TIV NUMBER VAERS REPORTS PER YEAR IN CHILDREN <2 YEARS OF AGE AFTER TIV* (Through April 7, 2004) ACIP Guidance *Increase in reporting >2002 probably secondary to increase In number of vaccinees, but the number of doses distributed to this age group is unknown.

TIV VAERS Reports in Children Vaccinated and Report Received July 1-February 24

Comparison of VAERS Reports Before* and After** 2002 ACIP Guidance Most characteristics of VAERS reports after TIV in children < 2 years were the same before and after the 2002 ACIP Guidance: Median age in months 13 45-46% female subjects Median days from vaccination to onset of event 1 14% reports “serious” 2-3% report subjects died One characteristic slightly different: 43% report subjects received TIV alone before the guidance versus 34% after the guidance *N= 107 **N= 186

The Majority of Reports Were of Fever and Injection Site Reactions

Proportion of Reports of Allergy, but not Asthma Increased

Proportion of Reports of Seizure Decreased

SEIZURE REPORTS FOLLOWING TIV IN CHILDREN <2 YEARS OF AGE 1/1/1990-4/7/2004 18/42 (43%) seizure reports with TIV alone 26/42 (62%) unexplained seizure with fever within 2 days of vaccination (3 h/o seizures, 1 of those febrile) 7 reports of seizure without fever within 1 day post-vaccination (1 h/o seizures) of which 3 received TIV alone 5 reports of seizure without fever after TIV alone 14/39 (36%) serious reports seizure 11/14 with fever 7/14 with TIV alone

Percent Report Subjects with Underlying Medical Condition

Underlying Medical Conditions in Reports of <2 year olds after TIV January 1, 1990- April 7, 2004

Summary of Death Reports 8 deaths reported to VAERS in children aged <2 years after TIV before April 7, 2004 5 of 8 had definitive causes of death unrelated to vaccine 3 of 8 did not have definitive causes of death, but all had underlying illnesses 1 with Joubert’s Syndrome and apnea 1 with complex congenital heart disease 1 with recurrent pneumonia of unknown etiology; Birth history: meconium aspiration, 36 week GA

CONCLUSIONS: VAERS REPORTS IN CHILDREN AGED <2 YEARS AFTER TIV The safety profile of TIV in children aged <2 years appears similar before and after Pediatricians were encouraged to vaccinate healthy children in this age group. The number of VAERS reports dramatically increased, most likely due to an increase in number of doses administered (do not have denominators for both before and after periods). The percentage of report subjects with underlying medical condition decreased in the last 3 years, but remains at 40%. Asthma is the most frequent underlying medical condition.

CONCLUSIONS: SEIZURES IN AGED <2 YEARS Ongoing monitoring of seizure in <2 year olds after TIV Approximately one-third of serious reports 1990-2004 were of seizure Most seizure reports were of seizure with fever The proportion of all reports that are of seizure in 2002-2004 is half of that previously.

CONCLUSIONS: ONGOING ACTIVITIES October, 2003, ACIP recommended universal immunization for 6-23 month olds started in 2004-2005 With increasing numbers of TIV vaccinees, there will continue to be ongoing surveillance with appropriate follow-up for all adverse events following TIV in children aged less than 2 years.
