Impact of HIV-1 and Aging on Mucosal Vaccine Responses

July 11, 2024 updated by: VA Eastern Colorado Health Care System
The purpose of this study is to learn more about both HIV-1 infection and advancing age, and their association with increased risk of serious infection and impaired response to the Prevnar 13 vaccine.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

After being informed about the study and potential risks, patients will be screened to determine eligibility for the study and consented. Patients who meet eligibility requirements will be immunized with PCV 20. HIV-infected adults will be tested prior to and after vaccination by blood, nasal filter paper, and stool samples to characterize mucosal and systemic antibody responses . HIV-uninfected control adults will be tested at vaccination and post vaccination to characterize mucosal and systemic antibody responses .

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Determine pneumococcal specific IgG levels in BAL (BronchoAlveolar Lavage) fluid and NPF (Nasopharyngeal Fluid)
Time Frame: A change from baseline, measured at pre-vaccination, and 1 month post vaccine
Determine pneumococcal specific IgG levels in BAL fluid and NPF and to standardize the results we will compare it to the total levels in the BAL/NPF fluid collected at all timepoints
A change from baseline, measured at pre-vaccination, and 1 month post vaccine
Determine pneumococcal specific IgG levels in serum
Time Frame: A change from baseline, measured at pre-vaccination, and 1 month post vaccine
Determine pneumococcal specific IgG levels in serum 1 month post vaccination response criteria must meet >2-fold rise with a post-vaccination level >1000 ng/ml for > 7 of the 12 serotypes
A change from baseline, measured at pre-vaccination, and 1 month post vaccine
