简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess whether immunization against pertussis in the mid third trimester of pregnancy provides passive protection to the infant by transfer of IgG transplacentally and by transfer of secretory IgA (and possibly IgG) in breast milk, sufficient to protect the infant against pertussis disease in the critical neonatal period, without suppressing the infant's immune response to active immunization and disease
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to assess the potential of providing initial immunological protection to the neonate by providing passive placentally transferred serum antibodies and breast milk antibodies against pertussis antigens (PT, FHA, PRN, FIM). This will be accomplished by
- determining the rate of maternal antibody decline from time of immunization until 12 months postpartum by measuring antibody levels in serum, saliva, and breast milk at specified intervals;
- determining levels of antibody transferred to the neonate relative to the interval from immunization to delivery;
- comparing levels of transplacentally transferred antibody with those achieved after the first, second, and third dose of the primary immunization series; and
- determining whether maternal immunization interferes with active antibody production following licensed DTaP-IPV-Hib in infants of women immunized during the mid third trimester of pregnancy.

- •Women who, at ≥30-<32 weeks gestation, are at low risk for complications as determined by the obstetrical algorithm for identification of eligible subjects and the obstetrical risk assessment form.
- •Signed, informed consent.
排除标准
- •Failure to meet eligibility criteria as determined by the obstetrical algorithm for identification of eligible subjects and the obstetrical risk assessment form.
