As one of the powerful vaccines for completely eradicating all types of poliovirus in the polio endgame period, the novel IPV, which is prepared from attenuated polio Sabin strains (sIPV) and is expected to reduce the overall biosafety risk, was licensed in Japan (sIPV-containing diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis combination vaccines, DTP-sIPV) and China (sIPV) in November 2012 and January 2015, respectively. Limited by the development progress and the manufactured sIPV ability, it has to date only been used in Chinese Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) by sequential scheduling with bOPV and in Japan with DTP-sIPV vaccination. We herein summarize postapproval clinical studies of sIPV in both full-dose schedules and sequential schedules, focusing on China, to evaluate sIPV safety and immunogenicity in large populations to provide important data for its broad application in developing countries worldwide.
