Keywords

HIV, Streptococcus pneumoniae infection, Prevnar-13, PCV-13, Pneumococcal vaccine, Pneumococcal vaccines, Streptococcus pneumoniae colonization

Brief summary

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.

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 .

Intervention model description

Healthy control and HIV-1-infected adults aged 21-45 and 55-75 years old. For HIV-1+ undetectable plasma HIV-1 RNA and documented PPSV23. Two-time blood draw, nasopharyngeal fluid collection, physical function test, fecal collection and questionnaire. Participants will be given PCV13.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Determine pneumococcal specific IgG levels in BAL (BronchoAlveolar Lavage) fluid and NPF (Nasopharyngeal Fluid)A change from baseline, measured at pre-vaccination, and 1 month post vaccineDetermine 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
Determine pneumococcal specific IgG levels in serumA change from baseline, measured at pre-vaccination, and 1 month post vaccineDetermine 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
