This study is to evaluate the long-term immunogenicity of a boost dose of MVA-BN vaccine

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Mpox is an endemic zoonosis in Africa, caused by the MPXV virus of which there are two clades: I (former Congo Basin) and II (former West Africa). Since 2022, clade II has emerged globally via sexual transmission, primarily among men who have sex with men (MSM), resulting in a declaration of public health emergency (PHEIC) by the WHO.

In 2023, a clade I epidemic emerged in East Africa with a high case fatality rate (3-5%). In August 2024, the WHO again declared a PHEIC after the spread of clade I to African countries with no previously reported cases and outside Africa, raising fears of higher mortality and transmission.

A 3rd generation vaccine, MVA-BN (Imvanex® /Jynneos®), initially developed against smallpox, was approved in 2022 to prevent mpox. In France, the HAS recommends post- and pre-exposure vaccination for populations at risk: MSM, trans people with multiple partners, sex workers and certain professionals. For people born before 1980 (history of smallpox vaccination), a single dose is recommended as primary vaccination, while immunocompromised subjects require 3 doses.

Data show vaccine effectiveness of 20-80% in post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and \~80% in pre-exposure but neutralizing antibodies become undetectable after one year. Since the summer of 2024, the HAS has recommended a booster dose 2 years after the primary vaccination, on the basis of immunogenicity studies showing an increase in seroconversion to 98.7% one month after administration, but underlines the need to have other data, in particular on the durability of this response.

A study is proposed in MSM on HIV PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis), a priority population for structured medical monitoring, to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the MVA-BN booster in this context.
