• We performed the first in man study with a live replication-deficient delNS1-trivalent vaccine.
• Significant antibody titers to influenza strains contained in the vaccine were induced.
• Seroconversion occurred most frequently in participants who were seronegative before vaccination.
• A single intranasal dose was well tolerated and safe in healthy male and female participants.
• No vaccine virus could be re-isolated in volunteers after immunization.
BackgroundThe non-structural protein NS1 of the influenza virus counteracts the interferon-mediated immune response of the host. We investigated the safety and immunogenicity of a trivalent formulation containing influenza H1N1, H3N2 and B strains lacking NS1 (delNS1-trivalent).MethodsHealthy adult study participants who were seronegative for at least one strain present in the vaccine formulation were randomized to receive a single intranasal dose of delNS1-trivalent vaccine at 7.0 log10 TCID50/subject (n = 39) or placebo (n = 41).ResultsIntranasal vaccination with the live replication-deficient delNS1-trivalent vaccine was well tolerated with no treatment-related serious adverse events. The most common adverse events identified, i.e. headache, oropharyngeal pain and rhinitis-like symptoms, were mainly mild and transient and distributed similarly in the treatment and placebo groups. Significant vaccine-specific immune responses were induced. Pre-existing low antibody titers or seronegativity for the corresponding vaccine strain yielded better response rates.ConclusionsWe show that vaccination with a replication-deficient trivalent influenza vaccine containing H1N1, H3N2 and B strains lacking NS1 is safe and induces significant levels of antibodies (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01369862).
