    Reducing infection risk in multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders: a Brazilian reference center's approach
    (2022) GOMES, Ana Beatriz Ayroza Galvao Ribeiro; FEO, Lucas Bueno; SILVA, Guilherme Diogo; DISSEROL, Caio Cesar Diniz; PAOLILO, Renata Barbosa; LARA, Amanda Nazareth; TONACIO, Adriana Coracini; MENDES, Maria Fernanda; PEREIRA, Samira Luisa Apostolos; CALLEGARO, Dagoberto
    Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) are the most common autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). They present chronic relapsing courses that demand treatment with disease-modifying drugs (DMDs) to prevent inflammatory activity. Disease-modifying drugs lead to immunomodulation or immunosuppression through diverse mechanisms (e.g., shifting lymphocyte and cytokine profile, suppressing specific lymphocyte subpopulations). Thus, patients are more prone to infectious complications and associated worsening of disease. Objective To present feasible strategies for mitigating the infection risk of MS and NMOSD treated patients. Methods Targeted literature review concerning the management of infection risk with an emphasis on vaccination, therapy-specific measures, and particularities of the Brazilian endemic infectious diseases' scenario. Conclusion We propose a vaccination schedule, infectious screening routine, and prophylactic measures based on the current scientific evidence. Awareness of emergent tropical diseases is necessary due to evidence of demyelinating events and possible parainfectious cases of MS and NMOSD.

    A randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority trial comparing the immunogenicity and safety of two seasonal inactivated influenza vaccines in adults

    Background: To enhance the production and availability of influenza vaccines in different regions of the world is paramount to mitigate the global burden of this disease. Instituto Butantan developed and man-ufactured an embryonated egg-based inactivated split-virion trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine as part of a technology transfer partnership with Sanofi Pasteur.Methods: This is a phase IV, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multicenter clinical trial includ-ing adults 18-60 and > 60 years recruited during the 2019 southern hemisphere influenza season. Subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive either the Sanofi Pasteur Trivalent Seasonal Influenza Vaccine (SP-TIV) or Instituto Butantan Trivalent Seasonal Influenza Vaccine (IB-TIV). Hemagglutinin inhibition antibody titers were assessed pre-vaccination and 21 days post-vaccination.Results: 624 participants were randomized and vaccinated. In both intention-to-treat and per-protocol analysis, non-inferiority of the SP-TIV versus IB-TIV was demonstrated for the three influenza strains. In the per-protocol analysis, the SP-GMT/IB-GMT ratios for H1N1, H3N2, and B were 0.9 (95%CI, 0.7- 1.1), 1.2 (95%CI, 1.0-1.4), and 1.1 (95%CI, 0.9-1.3), respectively. Across vaccination groups, the most com-mon adverse reactions (AR) were limited to the injection-site, including pain and tenderness. The major-ity of the ARs were graded 1 and/or 2 and lasted less than one day. No serious adverse reaction was observed.Conclusion: This study demonstrated the non-inferiority of the immunogenicity of a single-dose of Instituto Butantan versus a single dose of the Sanofi Pasteur Seasonal Trivalent Influenza Vaccine in adults. Both vaccines were well tolerated and presented similar safety profiles.(c) 2023 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
