Immune Response to Pneumococcal Vaccination in Aging HIV Positive Individuals
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators hypothesized that pneumococcal vaccination with either the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine PPV-23 (Pneumovax-23) alone or the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine PCV-13 (Prevnar-13) followed by PPV-23 results in a similar antibody levels/functional antibody activity and induce similar pneumococcal polysaccharide (PPS)-specific B cell response in HIV positive individuals \> 50 years of age, HIV positive individuals 21-40 years of age as compared to HIV negative \> 50 years of age. The investigators immunized the study groups HIV+ persons \>50, HIV+ persons 21-40 and controls (HIV negative) with PCV 13 followed by PPV23 and HIV\>50 with PPV alone and examined immune responses to polysaccharide (PPS) 23 (F),14, 3, 7 (F) and 19 (A) using polysaccharide specific ELISA and opsonophagocytic assays (OPA). Pre- and post-immunization peripheral blood samples were obtained. Extensive B cell phenotype analysis using fluorescent antibodies was used to characterize PPS-labeled B cells. Specific phenotypes were correlated with antibody levels and OPA and compared to populations immunized with PPV
