Warnings
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity
Pregnancy
Inability to swallow table whole (chewing a tablet could expose the upper respiratory tract to live adenovirus leading to disease)
Cautions
Vomiting or diarrhea could decrease effectiveness of vaccine
Safety has not been evaluated in individuals with altered immunocompetence
Contains live viruses that are shed in the stool and can cause disease if transmitted; those vaccinated should avoid close contact with children younger than 7 years and immunocompromised individuals
Tablets contain human albumin (<0.3 mg/tablet), which could theortetically increase risk transmission of blood borne diseases (eg, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease)
Effective immunity may not occur in all vaccinated patients
Use effective contraception for 6 weeks after vaccination to avoid pregnancy
Drug interaction overview
- Data are not available to assess whether adenovirus vaccine interferes with the immune response to the other vaccines; in clinical studies, adenovirus vaccine was administered concurrently with other vaccines
- No data are available regarding concomitant use with immunosuppressive therapies
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
Contraindicated during pregnancy
Unknown whether adenovirus can cause fetal harm; naturally occurring infection with adenoviruses has been associated with fetal harm
Pregnancy testing
- Females of reproductive potential should have a pregnancy test before immunization with adenovirus vaccine
Contraception
- Effective contraception is needed in females of reproductive potential during treatment with and for 6 weeks following receipt of vaccine
Labor and delivery
- Data are not available regarding use during labor and delivery
- Fecal shedding during delivery may result in vaccine virus transmission to the newborn infant
Lactation
Unknown whether distributed in breast milk; caution advised
Pregnancy Categories
A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.
B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk. C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done. D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk. X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist. NA: Information not available.Pharmacology
Mechanism of Action
Live oral vaccine that replicates in intestinal tract and induces immunity in persons with low or no pre-existing neutralizing antibodies to adenoviruses types 4 and 7
Pharmacokinetics
Duration: Viral shedding not detected after 28 days
Onset: Viral shedding in the stool starts at 7 days; seroconversion starts at 26 days following vaccination
Absorption: Not detected in serum (limited data)
Administration
Oral Administration
Swallow tablets whole, do not chew, crush, or split; chewing a tablet could expose the upper respiratory tract to live adenovirus leading to disease
