Background
▪PRP-OMP ( PedvaxHIB ) is preferentially recommended for American 
Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) infants
•It provides a protective antibody response after the first dose
•Historically, Hib meningitis peaked at an earlier age among AI/AN 
infants
▪Vaxelis (DTaP -IPV-Hib-HepB ) does not currently have a preferential 
recommendation for AI/AN infants because
•It contains PRP -OMP in a lower amount than PedvaxHIB
•Post -dose 1 immunogenicity data were not previously available

Policy question
Should DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB (Vaxelis) be included with 
PRP-OMP (PedvaxHIB) in the preferential 
recommendation for American Indian and Alaska Native 
(AI/AN) infants based on the Hib component?
