Brief Summary

In a previous study by the researchers' group, the researchers' investigate the duration of yellow fever post-vaccination immunity in vaccinated children between 9 and 23 months of age. However, in this study, samples of children in the pre-vaccine period, also known as unvaccinated children samples (NV) have not been investigated. It is believed that to seek evidence about the immune status in the medium and long term after vaccination against yellow fever is necessary to investigate paired samples of children not vaccinated (NV), with re-evaluation 30-45 days after primary vaccination. The proposed study is to consolidate aspects of humoral (neutralizing antibodies) and cellular (phenotypic and functional parameters of T cells and memory B) by means of complementary longitudinal investigation children, 9-23 months old, unvaccinated (NV) and 30-45 days after primary vaccination.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Quantification of Humoral and cellular immunity after first yellow fever vaccination

    Consolidating aspects of humoral (quantification of neutralizing antibodies - \>2.log10IU/mL) and cellular (Percentege of phenotypic and functional parameters of T cells and B memory) through a complementary longitudinal investigation in children aged 9 to 23 month old unvaccinated and 30-45 days after first vaccination .

    Time 0 (immediately before) and Time 1 (30-45 days after) primary vaccination against yellow fever

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Quantification of titers of neutralizing antibodies in plasma samples

    Time 0 (immediately before) and Time 1 (30-45 days after) primary vaccination against yellow fever

  • Evaluate the frequency (percentage) of T cells and B memory induced in vitro by the vaccine antigen 17DD

    Time 0 (immediately before) and Time 1 (30-45 days after) primary vaccination against yellow fever

  • Evaluate the frequency (percentage) of T and B cells expressing intracytoplasmic cytokines in vitro induced by the vaccine antigen 17DD

    Time 0 (immediately before) and Time 1 (30-45 days after) primary vaccination against yellow fever

Study Population

The study provides immunoassays paired before and after anti-yellow fever vaccination in children of both sexes, of any color, class or social group. This will be necessary 60 paired samples (pre-vaccine period and 30-45 days after primary vaccination) of children aged 9 to 23 months, living in areas where YF vaccine makes up the basic immunization calendar and will receive the vaccine in the routine of UBRs in the first two years of life. This study will be conducted with samples collected from children living in Ribeirão das Neves - Minas Gerais. It will be collected 7 mL of whole blood collected in Heparin Sodium. It will be allowed to make two attempts to collect only. These samples will be used for the realization of the humoral and cellular immunity study.

You may qualify if:

  • Will be eligible for the study:
  • children 9-23 months of age;
  • both sexes;
  • children who will be vaccinated against yellow fever, whose parents or guardians sign the consent form.

You may not qualify if:

  • children who received another vaccine within 30 days before or after the yellow fever vaccine;
  • children with hemoglobinopathies;
  • children with a history of blood transfusion or treatment with hyperimmune serum up to 90 days prior to blood collection.
