The study will compare Tropis intradermal delivery against traditional needle and syringe (N/S) intramuscular administration.

Key Points: 
  • The study will compare Tropis intradermal delivery against traditional needle and syringe (N/S) intramuscular administration.
  • The study, in collaboration with Padjadjaran University (UNPAD) in Indonesia, will begin recruiting approximately 900 girls, aged 9 to 14 years of age in early 2023.
  • This follows PharmaJets preliminary studies evaluating intradermal delivery for HPV vaccines.1 Intradermal administration is already widely used for polio vaccine delivery and has been found to be safe, effective, and immunogenic.
  • Intradermal administration of vaccines can provide benefits for low resource settings including lower costs, increased coverage, and increased acceptability.

The project will measure vaccine coverage and cost using Tropis ID for fractional inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) delivery compared to standard intramuscular delivery using needle and syringe (N/S).

Key Points: 
  • The project will measure vaccine coverage and cost using Tropis ID for fractional inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) delivery compared to standard intramuscular delivery using needle and syringe (N/S).
  • A preferred approach by healthcare workers and patients1 is needle-free ID delivery using Tropis, which was developed with support from the World Health Organization (WHO) and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
  • On this World Polio Day 2022, we restate our commitment to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative and we are pleased to receive this grant from USAID Development Innovation Ventures.
  • Their advocacy efforts have played a role in decisions by governments to contribute more than $10 billion to the effort.

Intradermal Needle-free delivered vaccines can induce strong immune response comparable to intramuscular and subcutaneous injection with a fraction of the dose.

Key Points: 
  • Intradermal Needle-free delivered vaccines can induce strong immune response comparable to intramuscular and subcutaneous injection with a fraction of the dose.
  • The presentations may also include data from collaborations including those with:
    1.
  • 3 The low dose Tropis group produced significantly increased B and T cell responses compared to a higher dose IM N/S vaccination.
  • Refer to Instructions for Use to ensure safe injections and to review risks.

Over 2.7 million children have been targeted for this program so far using the PharmaJet Tropis NFIS.

Key Points: 
  • Over 2.7 million children have been targeted for this program so far using the PharmaJet Tropis NFIS.
  • The WHO previously introduced needle-free intradermal delivery of inactivated polio vaccine (ID-IPV) using the PharmaJet Tropis NFIS in both Pakistan and Somalia for the immunization of over 3 million children.
  • The PharmaJet Tropis NFIS was selected based on its proven cost savings, ease of training and improved coverage benefits.
  • In June, WHOs thirty-second polio International Health Regulations (IHR) Emergency Committee statement , was convened by the WHO Director-General to review the progress on global eradication of polio.

    The 2018 polio outbreak in Somalia emphasized the risk of paralysis to children in under-immunized populations.
  • In late 2021, in response to that risk, the WHO, UNICEF and local Somalia health authorities launched a campaign to immunize children who missed their polio shots during routine immunization.
  • During the campaign, PharmaJet sought to identify key stakeholder attitudes towards needle-free vaccine delivery and how these might impact coverage rates.

The PharmaJet needle-free system was chosen for the Somalia campaign because the published data1 demonstrated improved coverage and user preferences.

Key Points: 
  • The PharmaJet needle-free system was chosen for the Somalia campaign because the published data1 demonstrated improved coverage and user preferences.
  • Additionally, fractional dose delivery, enabled by Tropis, provides a cost-saving alternative to traditional delivery methods and can extend limited stocks.
  • Of the healthcare workers surveyed, 100% said that using needle-free injectors could increase vaccination rates.
  • Chris Cappello, President and CEO, PharmaJet, said, We are pleased to be part of the polio immunization efforts in Somalia to eradicate this terrible disease.
