Dose-Response Study of a Quadrivalent Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Varicella Vaccine in Healthy Children

Abstract

One injection of high potency MMRV resulted in antibody responses to the 4 vaccine components equivalent to those found after concomitant administration of M-M-RII and VARIVAX. A second injection of MMRV resulted in a significant boost in VZV antibody. This boost may translate into enhanced immunogenicity against varicella, which is known to correlate with increased protection.
