Ebola Sudan Chimpanzee Adenovirus Vector Vaccine in Healthy Adults

Ebola Virus Clinical Trial

Official title: A Phase I Open-Label, Dose-Escalation Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of Two Doses of an Ebola Sudan Chimpanzee Adenovirus Vector Vaccine, VRC-EBOADC086-00-VP (cAd3-EBO S), in Healthy Adults

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

RV 508 was a Phase I, open-label, dose-escalation study to examine the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of an investigational Ebola vaccine in healthy adults. VRC-EBOADC086-00-VP, a chimpanzee adenovirus serotype 3 vector-based Ebola vaccine, encodes wild type (WT) glycoprotein (GP) from the Sudan strain of Ebolavirus and is administered intramuscularly (IM).

Clinical Trial Description

A total of 40 participants were evenly split, with 20 in each of the two dosage groups to receive the investigational cAd3-EBO S vaccine at a dose of either 1x10^10 particle units (PU) (Group 1) or 1x10^11 PU (Group 2). The dose escalation plan included daily review of any new safety data by a study clinician, regular review of safety data by the protocol team and a staged enrollment plan with required interim safety reviews. The study began with enrollment of 3 participants into Group 1 (1x10^10 PU) at a rate of 1 participant per day. After at least 7 days of follow-up for the first 3 vaccinated participants, an interim safety review occurred before enrollment of additional participants into the group. No safety issues were identified; therefore, an additional 17 participants were enrolled to complete Group 1. When there was a minimum of seven days of follow-up safety data from the last enrolled participant in Group 1, an interim safety review occurred. No safety issues were identified, and enrollment of participants into the next dose level (Group 2) began with the enrollment of 3 participants at a rate of 1 participant per day. After at least 7 days of follow-up for the first 3 vaccinated participants in Group 2 (1x10^11 PU), an interim safety review occurred before the enrollment of additional participants into Group 2. No safety issues were identified, and an additional 17 participants were enrolled to complete Group 2. Participants were followed for approximately 48 weeks. ;
