Cross-neutralization Capacity of Immune Serum from Different Dosage of Sabin Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine Immunization against Multiple Individual Polioviruses.

Introduction

Sabin strain inactivated poliovirus vaccine (sIPV) developed by Sinovac Biotech Co., Ltd., has shown good safety and immunogenicity against parental strains among infants in several finished pre-licensure clinical trials.Areas covered: To further study the neutralizing capacity of investigational sIPV immune serum against Sabin, Salk and recently circulating poliovirus strains, neutralization assay against ten individual strains was performed on backup serum collected from 250 infant participants of the finished phase II clinical trial.Expert commentary:: The sIPV can generate good immunogenicity against Sabin, Salk and recently circulating poliovirus strains. Taking into account its lower containment requirements and financial costs compared with the conventional Salk strain inactivated poliovirus vaccine, sIPV is an affordable and practical option for polio eradication.
