Brief Summary: This research is designed to address the question, "Does the relative deficit in vaccine immunogenicity in extremely premature infants persist beyond the first 6 months of life?" We propose to measure the immunogenicity of varicella and mumps-measles-rubella vaccines in relatively healthy, 12-to-15 month-old children born at \<29 weeks gestation, when compared to full-term infants, as measured by the relevant viral serologies.
Detailed Description: Title: MMR and Varicella Vaccine Responses in Extremely Premature Infants

Phase: IV

Population: 16 generally healthy premature infants born at \< 29 weeks' gestation, \< 16 months old from the Rochester area 16 generally healthy full-term infants born at \>/= 37 weeks' gestation, \< 16 months old from the Rochester area

Number of Sites: University of Rochester

Study Duration: 1.5 - 8.5 months

Description of Agent or Intervention:

Subjects will make 2 study visits. The first, at 15 months of age, will coincide with a routine well child visit. Subjects will have 2 mL of blood drawn at the time of their routine, 15-month MMR, varicella, and pneumococcal conjugate immunizations. At a second study visit 4-6 weeks later, another 2 mL of blood will be drawn.

Objectives:

Primary: We propose to measure the immunogenicity of routinely administered varicella and mumps-measles-rubella vaccines in relatively healthy, 12-to-15 month-old children born at \<29 weeks gestation (premature), when compared to that in full-term infants.

Measles titers will be measured by neutralization assay. Mumps and rubella titers will be measured by enzyme-linked florescent immunoassay. Varicella titers will be measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.

Safety will be assessed by parental recall of vaccine-related adverse events and by active, prospective collection of blood-draw-associated adverse events.

Schematic of Study Design:

Subjects will be approached at 9-12 months of age for inclusion, and will consent at this time or at Visit 1

Visit 1 (15 mos):

Preterm N = 16, Full term N = 16, 2 ml blood draw

Routine MMR, varicella vaccines administered by primary pediatrician per standard of care (at Visit 1)

Visit 2 (16 mos):

Preterm N = 16, Full term N = 16, 2 ml blood draw

Varicella, mumps, measles and rubella vaccine titers measured by ELISA
