Abstract

Background: Few data are available on the safety and long-term immunogenicity of A/H1N1 pandemic influenza vaccines in HIV-infected pediatric patients. We performed a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the safety and long-term immunogenicity of 1 vs. 2 doses of the 2009 monovalent pandemic influenza A/H1N1 MF59-adjuvanted vaccine (PV) co-administered with the seasonal 2009-2010 trivalent non-adjuvanted influenza vaccine (SV) in HIV-infected children, adolescents and young adults. Methods: 66 HIV-infected patients aged 9 to 26 years were randomized to receive one (group 1) or two (group 2) doses of PV co-administered with 1 dose of SV. The main outcome was the seroconversion rate for PV at 1 month. Secondary outcomes were the geometric mean titer ratios and the seroprotection rates at 1 month for all vaccines, seroconversion rates at 1 month for SV and longitudinal changes of antibody titers (ABTs) at 1, 2, 6 and 12 months for all vaccines. Results: Groups 1 and 2 had similar CD4 counts and HIV-RNA levels during the study. Seroconversion rates for PV were 100% at 1 month in both groups. ABTs for PV were high during the first 6 months and declined below seroprotection levels thereafter. Longitudinal changes in ABTs were similar in Groups 1 and 2 for both PV and SV. Side-effects of vaccination were mild and mostly local. Conclusions: In HIV-infected children, adolescents, and young adults the immune response triggered by a single dose of PV was similar to that obtained with a double dose and associated with long-term antibody response.
