Abstract
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), transmitted through Aedes mosquitoes, is a significant global health concern. Various vaccine platforms have been explored to combat CHIKV, including formalin inactivation, live-attenuated strains, virus-like particles (VLPs), viral vectors, and mRNA technologies. This umbrella review synthesizes evidence on the safety profiles of vaccine platforms used in Chikungunya vaccines that have been applied in other vaccines, focusing on adverse events of special interest (AESI) in pregnant persons, children, and adolescents. A comprehensive overview of systematic reviews (SRs) was conducted. Results: Seven systematic reviews were included and complemented with primary studies. Vaccines like influenza, human papillomavirus (HPV), and COVID-19, which share platforms with Chikungunya vaccines, showed no significant increase in AESI. Moderate-to high-quality SRs supported favorable safety profiles. Vaccines sharing platforms with Chikungunya vaccines generally exhibit acceptable safety profiles in pregnant persons, children, and adolescents.
期刊介绍:
(formerly Human Vaccines; issn 1554-8619)
Vaccine research and development is extending its reach beyond the prevention of bacterial or viral diseases. There are experimental vaccines for immunotherapeutic purposes and for applications outside of infectious diseases, in diverse fields such as cancer, autoimmunity, allergy, Alzheimer’s and addiction. Many of these vaccines and immunotherapeutics should become available in the next two decades, with consequent benefit for human health. Continued advancement in this field will benefit from a forum that can (A) help to promote interest by keeping investigators updated, and (B) enable an exchange of ideas regarding the latest progress in the many topics pertaining to vaccines and immunotherapeutics.
Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics provides such a forum. It is published monthly in a format that is accessible to a wide international audience in the academic, industrial and public sectors.
