Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI): The Polio Research Committee’s call
Description:
The current priority of the Polio Research Committee is to generate new data or information in the following areas:
– Immunogenicity of poliovirus vaccination options after withdrawal of all oral poliovirus vaccines.
– Assessment of length of poliovirus environmental circulation after withdrawal of all oral poliovirus vaccines.
– Development and evaluation of new methods for poliovirus surveillance in areas with poor access.
– Development and evaluation of innovative IPV formulations or administration techniques (new mucosal adjuvants, virus-like particle [VLPs]
vaccine, IPV patches, etc.).
– Evaluation of factors favoring emergence of vaccine derived polioviruses
– Development and evaluation of new methods for assessment of quality (& coverage) of polio vaccination mass campaigns
– Assessment of length of priming following IPV administration
– Research supporting containment objectives and policies
