Protection from invasive disease caused by Haemophilus influenzae type b (hib) is due to the production of protective antibody levels against the hib capsular polysaccharide polyribosylribitol phosphate (PrP). in a case series of hib vaccine failures, prematurity was the most common clinical risk factor for failure. 1 Several studies in preterm infants suggest that hib conjugate vaccines, when administered to preterm infants, may elicit anti-PrP antibody titers that are close to those seen among term infants, whereas other studies have identified lower responses. 2 As part of a study of heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine immunogenicity among very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, 3 we measured anti-PrP titers among a subset of the infants following a primary series of hib conjugate vaccinations. We hypothesized that the least mature VLBW infants would have the lowest antibody responses. Subjects were eligible for the primary study if they were< 32 0/7 weeks gestation at birth and had a birth weight 401–1500 g. 3 At the time of the study, tetanus-, meningococcal-(PrP-oMP) and CrM197-protein-conjugate (hboC) vaccines were all used for hib immunization. Subjects were eligible for this secondary analysis if they received 3 doses of any combination of hib vaccine for their primary series, completed the primary series by 8 months of age, had blood drawn 4–6 weeks after the primary series and had extra serum available. Subjects were also eligible if they completed a 2-dose primary series (at 2 and 4 months) of PrP-oMP vaccine at 1 center (rochester) and able to draw blood samples 4–6 weeks thereafter. the primary outcome was geometric mean anti-PrP titer (GMt) 4–6 weeks following the primary hib series (at 4 or 6 months of age). Anticapsular PrP antibody was measured by the method of Phipps4 using PrP oligosaccharide (lower limit of detection= 0.10 μg/mL). of 244 infants in the primary study, 161 completed the secondary study (table 1). Birth weight was 1041±277 g [mean±standard deviation (Sd)] and gestational age 28.0±2.0 weeks, with 68 infants (42%) being≤ 1000 g. infants were 6.3±0.4 months at conclusion of the primary series of vaccines, and 5.3±0.5 and 7.4±0.5 months at blood draw for 2-dose PrP-oMP only and 3-dose infants, respectively. overall, 79% of infants had postvaccination PrP titers≥ 1.0 μg/mL and 96% had titers≥ 0.15 μg/mL. PrP geometric mean titer were lower among infants≤ 1000 g birth weight [2.5 μg/mL; 95% confidence interval (Ci): 1.7–3.4] than among those> 1000 g (3.6 μg/mL; 95% Ci: 2.7–4.8), but this difference did not reach statistical significance (P= 0.25)(Fig. 1). Seventy-four percentage of infants≤ 1000 g and 83% of infants> 1000 g achieved titers≥ 1.0 μg/mL (P= 0.15). only 9 infants received a primary series of 2 doses of PrP-oMP vaccine, limiting the ability to draw conclusions about differing responses to differing vaccine types. the proportion of VLBW infants achieving the presumed long-term protective PrP antibody titer of≥ 1.0 μg/mL is lower than the 90–95% reported for fullterm infants. 5 timely hib vaccine boosting may be particularly important among VLBW infants.
