Clinical Trial Summary

Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a serious illness with a high fatality rate. Currently only one vaccine is available, VSV-ZEBOV/Ervebo; this vaccine is clinically effective and has been deployed as a preventive measure during recent Ebola outbreaks. The durability of protection afforded by this vaccine is unknown, however, and it is thought that a booster vaccination may be required to maintain immune responses. Recently, a synthetic DNA vaccine, INO-4201, was tested in humans and showed good immunogenicity and an enhanced safety profile. This study aims to test whether the DNA-based candidate INO-4201 can be used as a booster in healthy volunteers previously vaccinated with VSV-ZEBOV.


Clinical Trial Description

This randomized placebo-controlled phase 1b trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the DNA-based vaccine candidate INO-4201 in healthy adult volunteers who previously received a single injection of VSV-ZEBOV. These participants will be randomized to either INO-4201 or placebo, injected once intradermally (ID) followed by electroporation (EP) with the CELLECTRA2000 device. Volunteers will be observed for 1 hour after vaccination and will attend follow-up visits at the Clinical Trials Unit in the 24 weeks after injection (8 visits in all). Primary outcome parameters are (i) the incidence of adverse events in relationship with INO-4201 from day 0 to 14, and (ii) geometric mean titers (GMT) of EBOV-GP-binding IgG antibodies at 4 weeks post-injection. ;
