Q fever is caused by the intracellular bacterium Coxiella burnetii, for which there is no approved vaccine in the United States. A formalin-inactivated whole-cell vaccine (WCV) from virulent C. burnetii NMI provides single-dose long-lived protection, but concerns remain over vaccine reactogenicity. We therefore sought an alternate approach by purifying native C. burnetii antigens from the clonally derived avirulent NMII strain. A soluble bacterial extract, termed Sol II, elicits high-titer, high-avidity antibodies and induces a CD4 T cell response that confers protection in naive mice. In addition, Sol II protects against pulmonary C. burnetii challenge in three animal models without inducing hypersensitivity. An NMI-derived extract, Sol I, enhances protection further and outperforms the WCV gold standard. Collectively, these data represent a promising approach to design highly effective, non-reactogenic Q fever vaccines. Solubilized fraction is purified from C. burnetii phase II cell lysate (Sol II) Sol II elicits protection in mice, guinea pigs, and macaques against Q fever No evidence of vaccine-mediated hypersensitivity in pre-sensitized guinea pigs Q fever protection improved further by Sol I immunization Q fever is a zoonotic disease with no widely approved vaccine that poses a serious threat to public health and national security. In this study, Gregory et al. show that a soluble bacterial extract is both safe and provides significant protection against Q fever in three animal models of infection.
