30-Minute Highly Multiplexed VaxArray Immunoassay for Pneumococcal Vaccine Antigen Characterization
ABSTRACT Pneumonia accounts for over 20% of deaths worldwide in children aged 1 to 5 years, disproportionately affecting lower- and middle-income countries. Effective, highly multivalent pneumococcal vaccines are available to decrease disease burden, with numerous new vaccines currently under development to serve a variety of worldwide markets. However, pneumococcal conjugate vaccines are among the hardest biologics to manufacture and characterize due to their complexity and heterogeneity. Current characterization methods are often inherently singleplex, requiring separate tests for each serotype present. In addition, identity and quantity are often determined with separate methods. We have developed the VaxArray Pneumococcal Assay for applications in identity, quantity, and stability testing of pneumococcal polysaccharide and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines. The VaxArray Pneumococcal Assay has a time to result of less than 30 minutes and is an off-the-shelf multiplexed, microarray-based immunoassay kit that can identify and simultaneously quantify 23 pneumococcal polysaccharide serotypes common to many on-market and in-development vaccines. Here, we highlight the potential of the assay for identity testing by showing high reactivity and serotype-specificity to a wide variety of native polysaccharides, CRM197-conjugated polysaccharides, and drug product. The assay also has vaccine-relevant lower limits of quantification in the low to mid ng/mL range and can be used for accurate quantification even in adjuvanted vaccines. Excellent correlation to the anthrone assay is demonstrated, with VaxArray resulting in significantly improved precision over this antiquated chemical method..
