Vaccination Response Modulation With a Targeted Rapamycin Protocol Study (VON TRAPP)

11. Mai 2026 aktualisiert von: Matthew Tunbridge, Central Adelaide Local Health Network Incorporated

Vaccination Response Modulation With a Targeted Rapamycin Protocol (VON TRAPP) Study

This study will investigate dialysis recipients' responses to important vaccines.

Research suggests that a medication commonly used by transplant recipients may improve vaccine responses. The investigators will be conducting a clinical trial to see whether a short course of low-dose Sirolimus improves the response to vaccination against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza (flu) in patient with kidney disease over 60 years old who receive haemodialysis.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Respiratory viruses are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in Australia. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and Influenza are major contributors to yearly respiratory virus epidemics that particularly affect older persons and persons with end-stage kidney disease.

Vaccination is available for the prevention of both RSV and Influenza, but unfortunately the conditions that confer a higher risk of morbidity and mortality with infection are also key predictors of poor responses to vaccination.

Effective vaccine responses require activation of both T and B cells to generate protective and long-lasting antibody and cellular immune responses. Immunosenescence from ageing and end-stage kidney disease, dampens antibody responses and impairs cellular immunity, rendering patients vulnerable to infection.

Previous research suggests that sirolimus(rapamycin)-based immunosuppression regimens improve vaccine immunogenicity. Sirolimus (rapamycin) is a potent inhibitor of mTORC1 which regulates memory CD8+ T cells. Targeting mTORC1 has previous been shown to improve vaccination response in humans to influenza. More recently, small studies have suggested improved responses to COVID vaccination in kidney transplant recipients switched to sirolimus (rapamycin)-based regimens.

This study will investigate a role for sirolimus (rapamycin) as a peri-vaccination immune modulation therapy. The VON TRAPP study is a phase 2a randomised clinical trial that aims to define the optimal, practical and tolerable regimen of peri-vaccination sirolimus (rapamycin) administration to positively modify vaccine responses. Haemodialysis patients over 60 years old will receive both Influenza and RSV vaccines plus either no additional treatment or a peri-vaccination regimen of sirolimus (rapamycin) to determine the most effective regimen to test further.
