Application of a TBE-Vaccine in Obese Persons

Study Description
Brief Summary:

Obese people have an altered immune responsiveness. The present study investigates whether this influences immune responses to booster vaccinations (i. e. booster vaccination with TBE vaccine "FSME Immun") and if a modification of vaccination schedules is needed.

Obese adults (BMI >30) >18 - 60 years are compared with adults with normal weight (BMI <25) concerning TBE-NT- antibody titers, TBE- NT antibody titer course and cellular immunity. Metabolic parameters and sexual hormones will be tested and compared as well.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Tick Borne Encephalitis Drug: FSME-IMMUN Vaccine Phase 4

Detailed Description:

Obese people have an altered immune responsiveness. Studies have shown that obesity has a direct effect on the immune system and leads to immunosuppression, which leads to a susceptibility to infection.We investigate whether this influences immune responses to booster vaccinations (i. e. booster vaccination with TBE vaccine "FSME Immun") and if a modification of vaccination schedules is needed.

The investigators will test and compare the humoral and cellular immune response of obese persons (BMI>30) and persons with normal weight (BMI<25) before and after a booster with FSME Immun.

The aim of the study is to clarify if a modification of vaccination schedules or a change of booster intervals is necessary for obese people. Furthermore this study will increase our understanding of the influence of obesity on different components of the immune system, as well as on the quality and quantity of the immune responses.

At Screening (visit 1) demographic parameters (age, gender, weight, BMI, waist/hip-ratio) will be recorded and metabolic parameters (Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL, LDL, Apolipoproteine, Lp(a), Glucose, Fructosamin, Leptin, Leptinreceptor on T- and B-cells (PCR), Insulin, high-sensitive CRP) and sex hormones (Testosterone, Estrogen, Progesteron, FSH, LH) will be tested. At visit 3 some metabolic parameters (Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL, Glucose, Fructosamin, Insulin und high-sensitive CRP) will be tested again. All parameters will be compared and correlated with humoral and cellular immune responses.

Immunglobulins: IgG, IgE, IgD, IgM, IgA will be tested at visit 1-4.

TBE antibody titers (NT) will be tested and titer course will be evaluated at visit 1-5.

At visit 1 und 2, isolation of PBMC (Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells) with Ficoll gradient will be carried out and the following tests will be performed:

  1. Cytokine concentrations will be measured after re-stimulating the PBMC with TBE-Antigen. Duration of stimulaton: 48h; Detection with Luminex platform/ELISA: IL-2, IFNgamma, IL-10, TNF-alpha und IL-6
  2. Flow cytometry: Characterization of different lymphocyte-subpopulations with antibody-panels (CD surface markers: CD19, CD3, IgD, IgM, IgG, IgA, CD10, CD27, CD127, CCR4, CD8, CD4, CD28, CD31, CD38, CCR7, CD45RA, CD25, CD24, CD38 und FOXP3).

Serious adverse events and adverse events will be recorded at all visits

All participants will be tested again at V5, performing TBE-Neutralisation-Test three years after the booster vaccination for analysis of longterm immunogenicity. Demographic parameters will be recorded again.

Participants who are not protected against TBE for another year, three years after the booster vaccination at V5 (NT <20), will receive a booster vaccination for free.

V1 day 0, V2 day 7+3,V3 1 month +/-7 days, V4 6 months +/-14d V5 36 months+/- 1 month V6 only if TBE NT<20
