Immune Responses After a Four-site Intradermal Rabies Booster Vaccination in HIV-infected Adults
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
A four-site intradermal rabies booster vaccination in HIV - infected patients who have ever received primary rabies vaccination could improve their immune response to this kind of vaccine.

Detailed Description
A four-site intradermal rabies booster vaccination has shown higher immune response than conventional intramuscular rabies booster vaccination in healthy persons. So, the investigators hypothesized the same outcome in HIV - infected patients.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Four-site intradermal vaccination 0.1 ml of rabies vaccine is distributed to 4 sites over both arms and thigh intradermally on day 0. Blood would be drawn for rabies neutralizing antibody, OX-40 assay and cytokines assessment on day 0,7,14. |
Biological: rabies vaccine
Rabies vaccine is injected according to the protocol then blood would be drawn for rabies neutralizing antibody, OX-40 assay and cytokines assessment on day 0,7,14.
|
Active Comparator: Intramuscular vaccination 0.5 ml of rabies vaccine is injected to one arm on day 0 and 3.Blood would be drawn for rabies neutralizing antibody, OX-40 assay and cytokines assessment on day 0,7,14. |
Biological: rabies vaccine
Rabies vaccine is injected according to the protocol then blood would be drawn for rabies neutralizing antibody, OX-40 assay and cytokines assessment on day 0,7,14.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Rabies neutralizing antibody titers [Change from baseline of geometric mean titres of rabies neutralizing antibody titres at 2 weeks]
Rabies neutralizing antibody titers would be represented and compared by geometric mean titers (GMTs)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Specific T cell response [Change from baseline of percentages of rabies-antigen specific CD4+ T cells at 2 weeks]
Specific T cell response is measured by OX-40 assay
- Cytokines assessment [Change from baseline of cytokines levels at 1 week]
A few cytokines levels are measured by multiplex bead array assay
