A Randomized Clinical Trial of 1-Dose vs Accelerated 2-Dose Schedule for Hepatitis A Virus (HAV) Revaccination Among People With Human Immunodeficiency Virus Who Were Nonresponders or Had Seroreversion After Primary HAV Vaccination. Clin Infect Dis 2023; 77:529-536. [PMID: 37036404 DOI: 10.1093/cid/ciad206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 04/04/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND For people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH) who have no serological responses to their primary hepatitis A virus (HAV) vaccination or have seroreversion after successful primary vaccination, the optimal revaccination strategy remains unclear. METHODS In this open-label, randomized clinical trial, PWH who tested negative for anti-HAV antibodies after receiving a standard 2-dose series of primary HAV vaccination were enrolled and assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 1 dose (the 1-dose group) or 2 doses of HAV vaccine administered 4 weeks apart (the 2-dose group). Serological response rates and anti-HAV antibody titers were compared at weeks 24 and 48. RESULTS Of the 153 participants (77 in the 1-dose group and 76 in the 2-dose group), the overall serological response rates at week 48 after revaccination were similar between the 2 groups (2- vs 1-dose, 80.2% vs 71.4%, P = .20). However, anti-HAV antibody titers were consistently higher in the 2-dose group than in the 1-dose group. In subgroup analysis, PWH who were nonresponders to primary HAV vaccination were significantly more likely to mount a serological response after 2-dose HAV revaccination (68.4% vs 44.1%, P = .038). No severe adverse events were reported throughout the study. CONCLUSIONS Two-dose HAV revaccination administered 4 weeks apart yielded similar serological responses as 1-dose revaccination among PWH who were nonresponders or had seroreversion after primary HAV vaccination. The 2-dose revaccination schedule generated significantly higher anti-HAV antibody titers and was more likely to elicit serological responses at week 48 among PWH who were nonresponders to primary HAV vaccination.

Predictors associated with a better response to the Japanese aluminum-free hepatitis A vaccine, Aimmugen ® , for people living with HIV. Hepatol Res 2022; 52:227-234. [PMID: 34825436 DOI: 10.1111/hepr.13736] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2021] [Revised: 11/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
AIM After the hepatitis A virus (HAV) outbreak among men who have sex with men (MSM) around 2018, the importance of HAV vaccination was emphasized, especially for MSM-living with human immunodeficiency virus (MSM-LWHIV). Aimmugen® is licensed and distributed exclusively in Japan. While administration of three doses is recommended, 85% of recipients in the general population were reported to acquire seroprotection after the second dose. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of two or three vaccine doses along with predictors associated with the response to Aimmugen® in MSM-LWHIV. METHODS We retrospectively examined anti-HA-IgG titers of MSM-LWHIV vaccinated with Aimmugen® in our hospital. Patients' data were collected from medical records. RESULTS Between January 2018 and October 2019, 141 subjects whose median age was 46 years old, were examined. All the subjects were on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and the median CD4 count was 615/μL. The acquisition rate of protectable anti-HA-IgG titers after the second and third dose was 71.1% and 98.6%, respectively. In 114 subjects whose anti-HA-IgG titers were tested after the second-dose, factors significantly associated with better response were prolonged ART duration and higher CD4 count. The titers of anti-HA-IgG after the third dose were higher in those who became seropositive after the second-dose than those who did not. CONCLUSIONS Three-dose of Aimmugen® for MSM-LWHIV was effective while two-dose was less effective compared to non-HIV-infected people. People-LWHIV with shorter duration of ART and lesser CD4 cell count achieved lower titers of anti-HA-IgG and might require an additional vaccination.
