Summary for the public


What is RHINISENG?

Rhiniseng is a vaccine containing a non-toxic recombinant derivative of the Pasteurella multocida toxin and inactivated Bordetella bronchiseptica cells (inactivated means that the bacteria are killed so that they cannot cause the disease anymore). Rhiniseng is presented in fluid form as a suspension for injection which is stored in a glass or plastic bottle.


What is RHINISENG used for?

RHINISENG is used for the protection of piglets via the sow’s colostrum (first milk) after injection of sows and gilts. It is used to reduce the clinical signs and lesions of a disease called progressive and non-progressive atrophic rhinitis, as well as to reduce weight loss associated with Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida infections during the fattening period.


How does RHINISENG work?

RHINISENG is a vaccine against a bacterial disease. When it is given to sows, the animal’s immune system (their natural defence mechanism) learns how to make antibodies (a special type of protein) to fight the disease. These antibodies are then transferred to the piglets via the colostrum they receive. In the future, if the sows are exposed to the above mentioned bacteria, the immune system will be able to make those antibodies quicker and this will help their piglets to fight the disease and its after effects such as weight loss.


How has RHINISENG been studied?

The safety of RHINISENG was demonstrated in several well conducted and reported laboratory and field studies. Results demonstrated that the vaccination of sows, gilts and boars according to the vaccination programme did not provoke unacceptable local or systemic reactions after vaccination and no significant differences in reproductive parameters between vaccinated and placebo-treated animals were recorded either.

Overall, the safety of this vaccine has been well documented and reported for the target animals, the user, the consumer and the environment.

The efficacy of RHINISENG was demonstrated for the category of the target species for which the vaccine is recommended (gilts and sows) by the recommended route of administration (intramuscular) using the proposed schedule of administration (first vaccination at 6-8 weeks before farrowing and revaccination 3-4 weeks later). The field efficacy results supported those obtained from the laboratory studies.


What benefit has RHINISENG shown during the studies?

Direct therapeutic benefit
RHINISENG reduces the incidence and severity of the disease called progressive and non-progressive atrophic rhinitis in pigs.

Additional benefits
As a consequence of reduced atrophic rhinitis disease, the incidence of respiratory symptoms and subsequent treatment with antibiotics of the pigs is also reduced. The pigs, which have received antibodies against progressive atrophic rhinitis via colostrum, need a shorter time to reach the slaughter weight.


What is the risk associated with RHINISENG?

The risk using this inactivated vaccine can be classified as minimal.

Main potential risks for the vaccine as such:

  • for the target animal: there are mild and transitory local reactions at the injection site, resolving within few days and a transiently elevated body temperature within acceptable limits. This is reflected in the relevant sections of the SPC.
  • for the user: accidental self-injection is the only identified risk and an appropriate warning has been included in the SPC to reflect the (small) risk.
  • for the environment: no risk identified from the use of this inactivated vaccine
  • for the consumer: all components have been investigated and no risk for the consumer has been identified.

What are the precautions for the person who gives the medicine or comes into contact with the animal?

In case of accidental self-injection only a minor injection site reaction is expected.


What is the time to allow before the animal can be slaughtered and the meat used for human consumption (withdrawal period)?

Zero days.


Why has RHINISENG been approved?

The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) concluded that the benefits of RHINISENG exceed the risks for the treatment of piglets via colostrum from sows and gilts actively immunised with the vaccine to prevent the clinical signs and lesions of progressive and non-progressive atrophic rhinitis and recommended that RHINISENG be given a marketing authorisation. The benefit-risk balance may be found in the scientific discussion module of this EPAR.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
Target species
Sows and gilts.
4.2
Indications for use, specifying the target species
For the passive protection of piglets via colostrum after active immunisation of sows and gilts to
reduce the clinical signs and lesions of progressive and non-progressive atrophic rhinitis, as well as
to reduce weight loss associated with Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida
infections during the fattening period.
Challenge studies have demonstrated that passive immunity lasts until piglets are 6 weeks of age
while in clinical field trials, the beneficial effects of vaccination (reduction in nasal lesion score and
weight loss) are observed until slaughter.
4.3
Contraindications
Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substances, to the adjuvants or to any of the
excipients.
2
4.4
Special warnings
None.
4.5
Special precautions for use
Special precautions for use in animals
Vaccinate only healthy animals
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product
to animals
In case of accidental self-injection only a minor injection site reaction is expected.
4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness)
Transient local reactions may occur after the administration of one dose of vaccine. A transient
slight swelling of less than 2 to 3 cm in diameter is common at the injection site which may last up
to five days and occasionally up to two weeks.
A transient increase in body temperature of about 0.7°C is common during the first 6 hours after
injection. An increase of rectal temperature up to 1.5ºC may occur. This rectal temperature increase
is spontaneously resolved within 24 hours without treatment.
4.7 Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay
Can be used during pregnancy.
4.8 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
No information is available on the safety and efficacy of this vaccine when used with any other
veterinary medicinal product. A decision to use this vaccine before or after any other veterinary
medicinal product therefore needs to be made on a case by case basis.
4.9
Amounts to be administered and administration route
Intramuscular use.
Allow the vaccine to reach room temperature (15-25˚C) before administration.
Shake well before use.
Administer one dose of 2 ml by intramuscular injection in the neck muscles according to the
following schedule:
Basic vaccination: sows and gilts which have not been previously vaccinated with the product
should be given two injections with an interval of 3-4 weeks. The first injection should be
administered 6-8 weeks before the expected date of farrowing.
Revaccination: a single injection should be given 3-4 weeks prior to each subsequent farrowing.
4.10 Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes), if necessary
No adverse reactions other than already mentioned under point 4.6 can be expected, except for an
increase of rectal temperature up to 2ºC. This rectal temperature increase is spontaneously resolved
within 24 hours without treatment.
3
Discoloration of muscular fibres of the inoculation site (0.5 cm wide x 2 cm long) may be observed
at necropsy in 10% of animals. This discoloration is attributable to aluminium hydroxide and may
be observed up to seven weeks after the injection of a double dose of vaccine.
4.11 Withdrawalperiod
Zero days.
