Abstract
Sabin strain inactivated poliovirus vaccine (hereinafter as "sIPV") has been marketed globally in recent years, and more data on its immune persistence are needed. This is a phase IV, open-labeled, parallel-controlled observational study based on phase III clinical trial as required by the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). At least 450 subjects aged four years (48–54 months) who received four doses at 2, 3, 4 and 18 months of age of sIPV or wild strain poliovirus vaccine (wIPV) in phase III clinical trial enrolled at a 2:1 ratio and collected blood samples for neutralizing antibody testing. A total of 500 subjects of four years old (334 in the sIPV group and 166 in wIPV group) were finally enrolled. The seropositivity rates (≥1:8) of neutralizing antibodies against serotype I-III were all 100.00% in all participants, and the geometric mean titers (GMT) were 1117.33 vs. 337.77 against serotype I, 632.72 vs. 267.34 against serotype Ⅱ, 1665.98 vs. 923.02 against serotype III in the sIPV group and wIPV group respectively at 4 years old. The seropositivity rates and GMTs of neutralizing antibodies in the test group were non-inferior to that of the control group against all three serotypes at different time points (P < 0.0001). The antibody GMT experienced a 10-fold, 8-fold, and 7-fold decline for serotypes I, Ⅱ, and III in the sIPV group, and a 13-fold, 7-fold, and 7-fold decline in the wIPV group from one month after booster vaccination to 4 years old. The neutralizing antibody level is much higher than the seroprotection cutoff (≥1:8) among children of 4 years old who completed the four-dose vaccination of either sIPV or wIPV. Therefore, another booster vaccination is not recommended at 4 years old. Longer immune persistence observation is still ongoing. Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04989231.
