Background: ExPEC10V is a bioconjugate vaccine containing O-antigen polysaccharides of 10 extraintestinal pathogenic (ExPEC) serotypes. This phase 1/2a study (NCT03819049) assessed the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of ExPEC10V (VAC52416) to prevent invasive disease in elderly adults.
Methods: The observer-blind, active-controlled design included a 28-day screening, vaccination, 181-day follow-up, and 1-year follow-up. Participants (60-85 years of age) were randomized to ExPEC10V low dose (antigen dose range, 4-8 µg), ExPEC10V medium dose (4-16 µg), or ExPEC10V high dose (8-16 µg); 4-valent ExPEC vaccine (ExPEC4V); or 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13). The incidence of adverse events (AEs; solicited, day 15; unsolicited, day 30; serious AEs, day 181) and immunogenicity (electrochemiluminescent-based assay [ECL] and multiplex opsonophagocytic assay [MOPA]) were assessed. Optimal ExPEC10V dose was determined from safety data through day 30 and an immunogenicity dose selection algorithm based on day 15 ECL and MOPA results.
Results: A total of 416 participants were included (median age, 64.0 years; 54.8% female). The incidences of solicited local and systemic AEs were, respectively, 44.2% and 39.4% for low-dose, 52.9% and 46.1% for medium-dose, 57.7% and 45.2% for high-dose ExPEC10V, and 74.1% and 48.1% for PCV13. Five serious AEs, not vaccine related, were reported. The ECL revealed a robust antibody response to ExPEC10V through year 1. Opsonophagocytic killing activity was detected against all but serotype O8; this lack of response against serotype O8 was linked to low assay sensitivity. Based on the totality of data, high-dose ExPEC10V was considered optimal.
Conclusions: ExPEC10V was well tolerated and immunogenic in elderly adults against all but serotype O8.

Aim: This phase 1 study (NCT04306302) evaluated the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of ExPEC10V (VAC52416) in healthy Japanese adults.
Method: The randomized, double-blind, single-center study included 28-day screening, vaccination (Day 1), 30-day safety and immunogenicity follow-up and 181-day serious adverse events (SAEs) follow-up. Participants (60-85 years) were enrolled in dose-ascending approach and randomized to medium- and high-doses of ExPEC10V (n = 8 in each dose group) and placebo (n = 8).

The safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of 3 doses of ExPEC10V (VAC52416), a vaccine candidate to prevent invasive Escherichia coli disease, were assessed in a phase 1/2a study (NCT03819049). In Cohort 1, ExPEC10V was well tolerated; the high dose was selected as optimal and further characterized in Cohort 2. Cohort 2 comprised a maximum 28-day screening, vaccination (Day 1), double-blind 181-day follow-up, and open-label long-term follow-up until Year 1.

Background: The incidence of bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae is increasing, with substantial associated morbidity, mortality, and antimicrobial resistance. Unbiased serotyping studies to guide vaccine target selection are limited.
Methods: We conducted unselected, population-level genomic surveillance of bloodstream E.

There is an increasing incidence of infectious complications caused by extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate needle biopsy (TRUS-PNB), and a need for prophylaxis methods effective against associated antibiotic-resistant organisms. We aimed to identify the O-serotypes of ExPEC isolates collected in a sample of 60 patients with invasive ExPEC disease (IED) after TRUS-PNB, by serotype-specific agglutination and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. The prevalence of O-serotypes included in a tetravalent ExPEC vaccine was 38.
