3 Background: Diphtheria Toxoid Containing Vaccines (DTCV) Diphtheria toxoid used –To immunize effectively against diphtheria –As a conjugate protein in other bacterial vaccines 1964-2004: Td only routinely recommended DTCV for U.S. adolescents/adults –Adolescent booster then every 10 years –Acceptably safe and immunogenic against diphtheria 2005-2006: Two new DTCV introduced into U.S. adolescent and adult schedules: Tdap and MCV4* –Acceptable safety of each vaccine demonstrated *Tdap: Tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis (BOOSTRIX ® and ADACEL ® ) MCV4: tetravalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (Menactra ® )

7 Key Post-licensure Safety Questions for Use of Diphtheria Toxoid-containing Vaccines in Adolescents and Adults How soon can Tdap safely be administered after Td? –Adolescents? –Adults? What is the optimally safe administration sequence for Tdap and MVC4 when both vaccines are indicated? –Applies mainly to adolescents

10 DTCV Safety for Adult Boosters: Historical Observation “At an early stage it was noticed that adults often suffer from severe reactions during diphtheria immunization... it was not uncommon to have pyrexia, severe malaise and confinement to bed after innoculation” Scheibel Acta Pathol Microbiol Scand 1948
11
11 Historical Literature Summary Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoid: Adverse Events (AEs) after Adult Booster Dose(s) Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoid Rate of local AEs after vaccination Up to 80% Historical risk factors for severe local AEs Higher doses toxoid High serum antitoxin level before vaccination (e.g., due to frequent boosters) Impurities in diphtheria toxoid Td vs. TTAE rate after Td higher than after TT; Td safety acceptable IOM, Adverse Events Associated with Childhood Vaccines 1994 Galazka AM et al. Vaccine 1994;14:845 Lloyd et al. Vaccine 2003;21:3746-3750
12
12 Arthus Reaction Local Type III Hypersensitivity Rarely occurs after vaccination –Observed after tetanus and diphtheria toxoid-containing vaccines Characterized by –Pain, swelling, induration, edema, some with local hemorrhage and necrosis –Fever –Onset 4-12 hr after dose Immune complex deposition initiates local vasculitis and inflammation IOM, Adverse Events Associated with Childhood Vaccines, 1994.

20 Limitations of Tdap and MCV4 U.S. Pre-licensure Safety Trials Tdap trials included no subjects who received –Diphtheria or tetanus toxoid-containing vaccine within 5 years* –MCV4 before or during trial MCV4 trials included no subjects who received Tdap before or during the trial Not enough subjects to detect rare adverse events Product labels available at http://us.gsk.com/products/assets/us_boostrix.pdf and http://www.vaccineplace.com/products/http://us.gsk.com/products/assets/us_boostrix.pdf http://www.vaccineplace.com/products/ *Excluded from ADACEL® studies if Td dose within 5 years; BOOSTRIX® if within 10 years

21 Post-licensure Canadian Study of Intervals between Td and Tdap: Methods Tdap (ADACEL ® ) vaccination campaign among 7001 children/adolescents (aged ≥7 to 19 years) residing on Prince Edward Island –Adverse event diaries completed for 5931 (85%) subjects Rates of selected AEs compared in subjects vaccinated at year-intervals of 2 – 9 years (8 cohorts) vs. ≥10 years after tetanus and diphtheria toxoid-containing vaccines –Subjects in “2-year” interval received Td >18 to ≤30 months earlier 13 Halperin et al. Pediatr Infect Dis J. 2006;25(3):195-200.
22
22 Adolescent Tdap Safety after Td* Rates of Selected Solicited Adverse Events within 15 Days after a single dose of Tdap after Td Halperin et al. Pediatr Infect Dis J. 2006;25(3):195-200. *Typical age 14 to 17 years
23
23 Summary: Safety Evidence before ACIP before Tdap Votes* Historical data suggested a potential safety concern for administering more diphtheria toxoid at shorter intervals to adults/adolescents Not clear if all lessons from historical studies apply to current U.S. situation –Less impurities in modern DTCV –Diphtheria not endemic –Practice of administering multiple tetanus toxoid boosters no longer common * ACIP voted to recommended Tdap for adolescents in June 2005 and for adults in October 2005 and February 2006.
24
24 Summary: Safety Evidence before ACIP Tdap Votes (continued) Td-to-Tdap intervals acceptably safe –≥5 years in U.S. adolescents and adults –as short as ~2 years in Canadian adolescents (who did not receive MCV4) Two Td and MCV4 administration sequences studied in adolescents and appear to be safe –Td and MCV4 together on same day –Td first followed by MCV4 1 month later
25
25 Summary: Gaps in Safety Evidence before ACIP Tdap Votes* Td-to-Tdap intervals –<5 years in adults –<2 years in adolescents and adults –In populations receiving MCV4 Administration sequences –MCV4 first, Td later –Any MCV4 and Tdap schedule * ACIP voted to recommended Tdap for adolescents in June 2005 and for adults in October 2005 and February 2006.
26
26 ACIP Recommendations on DTCV Interval and Administration Sequence 16
27
27 ACIP Adolescent Recommendations for Td-to-Tdap Interval* Tdap is “encouraged” for adolescents who already received Td ≥ 5 year interval is “encouraged to reduce the risk for local and systemic reactions” May administer Tdap to adolescents at a shorter interval –“particularly when the benefit of providing protection against pertussis is likely to be increased” CDC. Adolescent Tdap Recommendations. MMWR. 2006:55(RR03):1-34. *Adolescents aged 11 to 18 years
28
28 ACIP Adult Recommendations for Td-to-Tdap Interval* Tdap is recommended for healthcare personnel with direct patient contact –An interval as short as 2 years “recommended” –Shorter intervals may be used Tdap recommended for persons with close contact with infants –An interval as short as 2 years from the last Td “suggested” –Shorter intervals may be used CDC. Adult Tdap Recommendations. MMWR. 2006:55(RR17):1-33. *Adult aged 19 to 64 years
29
29 ACIP Recommendation for Administration Sequence of Tdap and MCV4 Vaccine providers should administer Tdap (Td) and MCV4 during the same visit if both vaccines are indicated and available MCV4 and Tdap (Td) may be administered using any sequence. –“persons who recently received one DTCV might have increased rates of adverse reactions after a subsequent DTCV…” 16 CDC. MCV4 Recommendations. MMWR. 2005:54(RR07:1-21). CDC. Adolescent Tdap Recommendations. MMWR. 2006:55(RR03):1-34. CDC. Adult Tdap Recommendations. MMWR. 2006:55(RR17):1-33.
