Uitkomstmaten
Primaire uitkomstmaten
• To assess pertussis specific IgG antibody levels in serum at T0 (prior to vaccination), 14 days (T1), 28 days (T2), 1 year (T3) and 2 (T4) years after vaccination to determine the kinetics of pertussis specific antibody levels after an aP booster vaccination in adults 25-29 years of age;<br>
• To assess memory B- and T-cell responses against the various B. pertussis vaccine proteins at all time points to determine the effects of an aP booster vaccination in adults 25-29 years of age.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Pertussis, or whooping cough, is caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis and is an acute and serious respiratory
infection, in particular for young and unvaccinated children. Since the introduction of whole-cell pertussis (wP) vaccines in
1953 in the Netherlands, the incidence of pertussis in childhood reduced rapidly. However, despite high vaccination
coverage (95%), pertussis is re-emerging in the Netherlands since 1996. This phenomenon is also observed in most other
western countries with high vaccination coverage. The most recent epidemic in 2012 in the Netherlands highlighted the
vulnerability of infants for a pertussis infection since three infants died. Vaccine derived protection against pertussis is not
yet established in the first months of life. The pertussis incidence in adults increases as well. Prolonged cough episodes is
one of the symptoms adults suffer from.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the longitudinal effects of an aP booster vaccination in adults, on longterm
humoral and cellular memory immunity against B. pertussis. By measuring antibody levels against the various
pertussis proteins, antibody kinetics in serum and saliva can be determined. These insights are necessary to understand
the possible effects of an adult aP booster vaccination on long-term immunity against pertussis. If the decay of vaccine
induced antibody levels is limited for a long period, these antibodies could help protect an infant when antibodies cross the
placenta during pregnancy.
Doel van het onderzoek
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the longitudinal effects of an aP booster vaccination in adults, on long-term humoral and cellular memory immunity against B. pertussis. By measuring antibody levels against the various pertussis proteins, antibody kinetics in serum and saliva can be determined. In addition, if the decay of vaccine induced antibody levels is limited for a long period in women, these antibodies could help protect an infant when specific pertussis antibodies are transported across the placenta during pregnancy.
