BACKGROUND:
Influenza is responsible for a significant disease burden annually, especially in older adults. This study reviews the relative vaccine efficacy or effectiveness (rVE) of high-dose inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine (HD-IIV3) compared to standard-dose influenza vaccines (IIV3) in adults ≥65 against influenza-associated outcomes to inform evidence-based decision-making to shift clinical practice and standard of care in this population.
METHODS:
A systematic review was conducted for studies assessing the rVE of HD-IIV3 against probable/laboratory-confirmed influenza-like illness (ILI), hospital admissions, and death in adults ≥65. Results from individual seasons were meta-analyzed and the random-effects model was used to estimate pooled rVEs.
RESULTS:
After screening 992 studies, seven studies were meta-analyzed. HD-IIV3 demonstrated improved protection against ILI compared to SD-IIV3 (rVE=19.5%; 95%CI:88.6-29.0%). HD-IIV3 was also more effective at preventing hospital admissions from all-causes (rVE=9.1%; 95%CI:2.4-15.3%), as well as influenza (rVE=17.8%; 95%CI: 8.1-26.5%), pneumonia (rVE=24.3%, 95%CI:13.9-33.4%),4and cardiorespiratory events (rVE=18.2%; 95%CI:6.8-28.1%). rVE against post-influenza mortality was 22.2% (95%CI:-18.2-48.8%) and 2.5% (95%CI:-5.2-9.5%) against all-cause mortality.
CONCLUSIONS:
Available evidence suggests HD-IIV3 is more effective than SD-IIV3 at reducing the clinical outcomes associated with influenza infection in older adults and should be considered for routine use in the 65+ population.
