Background. Nonneutralizing antibodies (Abs) involved in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) may provide some protection from influenza virus infection. The ability of influenza vaccines to induce ADCC-mediating Abs (ADCC-Abs) in adults and children is unclear. Methods. We quantified ADCC-Abs in serum samples from adults who received a dose of inactivated subunit vaccine (ISV) targeting monovalent 2009 pandemic influenza A(H1N1) virus or live-attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) or who had laboratory- confirmed influenza A(H1N1) virus infection. We also measured ADCC-Abs in children who either received a dose of trivalent seasonal ISV followed by trivalent seasonal LAIV or 2 doses of LAIV. Finally, we assessed the ability of low and high ADCC-Ab titers to protect adults from experimental challenge with influenza A/Wisconsin/67/131/2005(H3N2) virus. Results. Adults and children who received a dose of ISV had a robust increase in ADCC-Ab titers to both recombinant hemagglutinin (rHA) protein and homologous virus-infected cells. There was no detectable increase in titers of ADCC-Abs to rHA or virus-infected cells in adults and children who received LAIV. Higher titers (>= 320) of preexisting ADCC-Abs were associated with lower virus replication and a significant reduction in total symptom scores in experimentally infected adults. Conclusions. ADCC-Ab titers increased following experimental influenza virus infection in adults and after ISV administration in both children and adults.
