Description
Objectives: The objective of this study is to investigate immunogenicity and safety of the yellow fever vaccine (YFV) in HIV-infected (HIV) patients with high CD4 T-cell counts. Design: In this prospective, comparative study of YFV-naive adults: 40 HIV under antiretroviral therapy (ART) with CD4 T-cell count above 350 cells/ml and plasma HIV-RNA less than 50 copies/ml for at least 6 months and 31 HIV-negative (HIV) received one injection of the YF-17D strain vaccine. Methods: Serologic response was assessed by using a plaque reduction neutralizing test and YFV-specific T cells by using an INFg-Elispot assay. Results: YFV was well tolerated in both groups. Most participants had asymptomatic YFV viremia at day (D) 7 after vaccination (77% of HIV and 82% of HIV, P 0.58), with higher plasma level of YFV RNA in HIV than in HIV (median 2.46 log10 copies/ ml (range: 1.15-4.16) and 1.91 log10 copies/ml (1.15-3.19), respectively, P 0.011). A significant but transient decrease in CD4 cell counts was seen at D7 in both groups, more pronounced in HIV than in HIV patients (261.5 versus 111.5 cells/ml, respectively, P 0.0003), but no HIV breakthrough was observed in plasma. All participants developed protective neutralizing antibody levels from D28 and up to 1 year after injection. At D91, fewer HIV than HIV participants exhibited YFV T-cell response (20 versus 54%, respectively, P 0.037). Conclusion: At 1 year, YFV was immunogenic and well tolerated in HIV-infected adults under ART with CD4 T-cell counts above 350 cells/ml. However, a lower immunity of YFV T cells in HIV-infected patients was observed as compared with HIV participants. Clinical Trials Registration: NCT01426243. © 2018 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins.
