Booster vaccination against tetanus and diphtheria at 10-year intervals is commonly recommended. Reduced antigen content diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis (dTpa) vaccines developed for booster vaccination of preschool children, adolescents, and adults are licensed for once-in-a-lifetime use in most countries. Objective. To evaluate decennial administration of a dTpa vaccine. Methods. Young adults vaccinated with dTpa or diphtheria and tetanus toxoids followed by acellular pertussis (DT+ap) 1 month later in a clinical trial 10 years previously received 1 dTpa dose. Blood samples were taken before and 1 month after vaccination. Antibody concentrations against vaccine antigens were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Solicited and unsolicited symptoms and serious adverse events were recorded.
