Bexsero (= 4CMenB = MenB-4C) protects from Gonorrhea

The recent discovery that meningococcal group B OMVs may protect against the related Neisseria species N.gonorrhoeae. There are 2 OMV-containing group B vaccines available, the new recombinant protein-based Bexsero® developed by Novartis and VA-MENGOC-BC® developed by the Finlay institute in Cuba.

Also, a third group B vaccine based on two recombinant factor H binding proteins (Trumenba®, Pfizer), has recently been licenced but it does not include OMV.

  • Available data indicate that protective antibody levels wane in most recipients within 1–2 years of completion of the primary series.
  • Bexsero (MenB-4C, GSK) is a 2-dose series with doses given at least 1 month apart.
  • Evidence to date suggests no impact of MenB vaccine on meningococcal B carriage (may protect an individual from invasive disease but is unlikely to impact transmission of the bacteria to others)
  • Approved ages 10–25 years in USA.

In Finland approved for all ages including >50 years:

Title: Looking beyond meningococcal B with the 4CMenB vaccine: the Neisseria effect

29 October 2021

Real-world evidence showed risk reductions of 69% for meningococcal serogroup W clonal complex 11 disease and 40% for gonorrhea after 4CMenB immunization.

Title: Effectiveness of a serogroup B outer membrane vesicle meningococcal vaccine against gonorrhoea: a retrospective observational study

April 12, 2022

Complete MenB-4C vaccination series was 40% (95% CI 23–53) effective against gonorrhoea and partial MenB-4C vaccination series was 26% (12–37) effective.

Complete vaccination = two MenB-4C doses administered 30–180 days apart.

Bexsero. 0.5 mL IM as a 2-dose series administered at least 1 month apart

ACIP recommendations for at risk adults

Booster dose: Administer 1 year after primary series completed and repeat booster dose every 2-3 yr if risk remains

At risk individuals include e.g. Microbiologists routinely exposed to Neisseria meningitidis

Medscape prescription drug monographs are based on FDA-approved labeling information, unless otherwise noted, combined with additional data derived from primary medical literature.

Study design: 3-year observational study

Bexsero was introduced for all infants in the UK in September 2015.

Infants were administered the vaccine at 2, 4 and 12 months, which resulted in a 75% reduction in meningitis B incidence in all fully eligible children in England. incidence rate ratio, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.19 to 0.36).

Intervals between Primary Doses: Not less than 1 month or 2 months, depending on age.

There are no data in adults above 50 years of age.
