Live Attenuated Pertussis Vaccine BPZE1 Protects Baboons Against Bordetella pertussis Disease and Infection

Abstract: SummaryThe resurgence of pertussis may originate from inefficient vaccine-mediated protection against infection by Bordetella pertussis. Here, we show that the live attenuated vaccine BPZE1 is safe in nonhuman primates and induces robust protection against both B. pertussis disease and infection.

“…28 The reasons for these conflicting findings are not known, but may potentially be due to the fact that we used the genetically attenuated BPZE1 strain, whereas in the previous study, virulent B. pertussis was used for the initial infection. However, our findings are consistent with our previous study showing BPZE1-induced protection against nasal infection in baboons, 16 in contrast to aPV. 12 In the mice, the nasal anti-B.…”

“…14 ) It is now in clinical development and was shown to be safe in humans, able to transiently colonize the human respiratory tract and to induce immune responses in all colonized individuals. 15 It has recently been tested in baboons, where it induced strong protection against pertussis disease after a single vaccination and reduced nasopharyngeal B. pertussis colonization by 99.998% over non-vaccinated baboons, 16 a performance that by far exceeded that of three administrations of a human dose of aPV and wholecell vaccine. 12 However, the mechanism responsible for the protection against nasal colonization has not been addressed yet.…”

“…Hence, use of currently marketed vaccines against tuberculosis (BCG), measles, mumps and rubella, varicella-zoster, rotavirus, influenza (nasal) and yellow fever is universally discouraged. Newer more effective vaccines under development, e.g., new pertussis vaccine BPZE1 (44), also may not become available to the immunocompromised. Replication-competent controlled virus vectors expressing antigens of the latter microbes in the context of efficient viral replication can be expected to elicit similarly or more potent immune reactions as the contraindicated live attenuated vaccines.…”

“…In this sense, alternative pertussis vaccines have been suggested, including a live attenuated pertussis vaccine [25] and a whole cell pertussis vaccine with reduced content of endotoxin [26]. Although with efficient and safe alternatives for prevention, pertussis is still the most frequent and lethal immunopreventable disease.…”
