Clinical Trial Summary

This is a randomized, partially blind, placebo controlled, clinical trial evaluating a single intranasal dose of BPZE1 in healthy adults. The study will evaluate a lyophilized formulation of the product, with the goal of testing for the optimal dose for subsequent clinical trials. Fifty healthy adults, 18-49 years of age will be randomized to one of the four following treatment groups in a 3:3:3:1 ratio: 10^7 colony forming units (CFU) of BPZE1 administered by VaxINator device, 10^9 CFU of BPZE1 administered by VaxINator device, placebo administered by VaxINator device, 10^9 CFU of BPZE1 administered by needleless tuberculin syringe. Study duration will be approximately 12 months with a subject participation duration of approximately 6 months. The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a single intranasal dose of either 10^7 or 10^9 CFU of lyophilized BPZE1 vaccine.


Description:

This is a phase 2a, single center, randomized, partially blind, placebo controlled, clinical trial evaluating a single intranasal dose of either 10^7 colony forming units (CFU) or 10^9 CFU of BPZE1 in healthy adults. The study will evaluate a lyophilized formulation of the product, with the goal of testing for the optimal dose for subsequent clinical trials. Fifty healthy adults, 18-49 years of age will be randomized to one of the four following treatment groups in a 3:3:3:1 ratio: 10^7 CFU of BPZE1 administered by VaxINator device, 10^9 CFU of BPZE1 administered by VaxINator device, placebo administered by VaxINator device, 10^9 CFU of BPZE1 administered by needleless tuberculin syringe. Study duration will be approximately 12 months with a subject participation duration of approximately 6 months. The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a single intranasal dose of either 10^7 or 10^9 CFU of lyophilized BPZE1 vaccine. The secondary objectives of this study are: 1) to assess the humoral immunogenicity of lyophilized BPZE1 vaccine at Day 15, Day 29 and Day 181 following receipt of one intranasal dose of 10^7 or 10^9 CFU of BPZE1; 2) to assess mucosal immunogenicity of lyophilized BPZE1 vaccine at Day 29 and Day 181 following receipt of one intranasal dose of 10^7 or 10^9 CFU of BPZE1; 3) to evaluate nasal clearance of BPZE1 by culture at Day 29 (and if still positive, at Day 46) following receipt of one intranasal dose of lyophilized BPZE1 vaccine of 10^7 or 10^9 CFU of BPZE1.

Secondary Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion to Pertussis Toxin as Measured by Serum IgA and Serum IgG Levels Approximately 10 mL of venous blood was collected from participants immediately prior to the first study vaccination on Day 1 (baseline), Day 15, Day 29, and Day 181 to measure via a bead-based assay serum IgA and serum IgG levels (in ELISA units/mL) to pertussis toxin (PT) antigen.
Seroconversion was defined as at least a 2-fold rise in antigen-specific IgA/IgG levels post-baseline compared to baseline levels. The percentage of participants who seroconverted to PT-IgA and PT-IgG at any and each immunogenicity timepoint (Day 15, Day 29, or and Day 181) was calculated.
Day 15, Day 29, and Day 181
Secondary Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion to Filamentous Hemagglutinin as Measured by Mucosal IgA Levels Nasal aspirate samples were collected from all participants at screening (baseline), Day 29, and Day 181 to measure total mucosal IgA levels via ELISA assay and mucosal IgA levels to filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) pertussis antigen via a bead-based assay. Total mucosal IgA levels were reported in µg/mL; antigen-specific IgA results were reported in ELISA units/mL.
The titer ratio of antigen-specific IgA to total mucosal IgA was computed for each participant at each time point, and the fold rise from baseline of this ratio was subsequently calculated for each participant.
Seroconversion was defined as at least a 2-fold rise in antigen-specific titer ratios post-baseline compared to baseline titer ratios. The percentage of participants who seroconverted FHA-IgA at each and any immunogenicity timepoint (Day 29 or Day 181) was calculated.
Day 29 and Day 181
Secondary Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion to Fimbriae 2/3 as Measured by Mucosal IgA Levels Nasal aspirate samples were collected from all participants at screening (baseline), Day 29, and Day 181 to measure total mucosal IgA levels via ELISA assay and mucosal IgA levels to fimbriae 2/3 (FIM) pertussis antigen via a bead-based assay. Total mucosal IgA levels were reported in µg/mL; antigen-specific IgA results were reported in ELISA units/mL.
The titer ratio of antigen-specific IgA to total mucosal IgA was computed for each participant at each time point, and the fold rise from baseline of this ratio was subsequently calculated for each participant.
Seroconversion was defined as at least a 2-fold rise in antigen-specific titer ratios post-baseline compared to baseline titer ratios. The percentage of participants who seroconverted FIM-IgA at each and any immunogenicity timepoint (Day 29 and Day 181) was calculated.
Day 29 and Day 181
Secondary Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion to Pertactin as Measured by Mucosal IgA Levels Nasal aspirate samples were collected from all participants at screening (baseline), Day 29, and Day 181 to measure total mucosal IgA levels via ELISA assay and mucosal IgA levels to pertactin (PRN) pertussis antigen via a bead-based assay. Total mucosal IgA levels were reported in µg/mL; antigen-specific IgA results were reported in ELISA units/mL.
The titer ratio of antigen-specific IgA to total mucosal IgA was computed for each participant at each time point, and the fold rise from baseline of this ratio was subsequently calculated for each participant.
Seroconversion was defined as at least a 2-fold rise in antigen-specific titer ratios post-baseline compared to baseline titer ratios. The percentage of participants who seroconverted PRN-IgA at each and any immunogenicity timepoint (Day 29 and Day 181) was calculated.
Day 29 and Day 181

Seroconversion was defined as at least a 2-fold rise in antigen-specific titer ratios post-baseline compared to baseline titer ratios. The percentage of participants who seroconverted PT-IgA at each immunogenicity timepoint (Day 29 and Day 181) was calculated.
Day 29 and Day 181
