Live attenuated influenza vaccine--a review.
Owing to the variability of influenza viruses, vaccine composition needs to be up-dated annually. As many variables can influence their efficacy, vaccines are still considered "sub-optimal". Many studies have been carried out in recent years to improve vaccines. In particular, researchers and vaccine-producing corporations have focused on developing a live vaccine. Among the candidate vaccines,...
متن کاملImmunogenicity and safety of a quadrivalent live attenuated influenza vaccine in children.
BACKGROUND Influenza B viruses from 2 lineages cocirculate annually. Because the single B strain contained in trivalent vaccines may not match the major circulating strain, adding a second B virus could enhance protection. This study compared the safety and immunogenicity of an investigational quadrivalent Ann Arbor strain live attenuated influenza vaccine (Q/LAIV) with that of 2 trivalent vacc...
متن کاملElastase-Dependant Live Attenuated Swine Influenza Virus Vaccine in Pigs
Swine influenza (SI) is an acute, highly contagious, respiratory disease of swine caused by influenza A viruses. In addition, SI infections possess significant human public health concerns as they may serve as intermediate host for the generation of new pandemic viruses. Vaccination is still the primary method for the prevention and control of SI. Currently, commercially available vaccines agai...
متن کاملSmall-particle aerosolization of live attenuated influenza vaccine virus.
To the Editor—In their recent study, Bischoff et al [1] exposed subjects to a small-particle aerosol of commercially available live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV; MedImmune LLC, Gai-thersburg, MD). LAIV was used as a proxy for wild-type influenza to evaluate the protection provided by N95 respirators, surgical masks, and eye protection. Although the study addresses the important question o...
متن کاملTemperature-Sensitive Live-Attenuated Canine Influenza Virus H3N8 Vaccine.
Canine influenza is a respiratory disease of dogs caused by canine influenza virus (CIV). CIV subtypes responsible for influenza in dogs include H3N8, which originated from the transfer of H3N8 equine influenza virus to dogs; and the H3N2 CIV, which is an avian-origin virus that adapted to infect dogs. Influenza infections are most effectively prevented through vaccination to reduce transmissio...
