Filter by:A Single-Center, Randomized, Blind, Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of the Adenovirus Type 5 Vector Based Ebola Virus Disease Vaccine (Ad5-EBOV) in Healthy Adults Aged Between 18 and 50 years in Sierra Leone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of the HPIV3-EbovZ GP Ebola vaccine candidate in healthy adults.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of three heterologous prime-boost regimens for Ebola vaccines Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo. The study will include healthy adults and elderly participants, HIV infected participants and healthy children in 2 age strata.
Since its first outbreak occurred in 1976, Zaire Ebola virus have been associated with 14 outbreaks reported up to 2014. The Zaire Ebola virus in 2014 causing the most serious outbreak was considered to be a new epidemic strain, with GP homology of the gene was only 97.6%, compared to the GP gene of the strain in 1976. This investigational Ad5-EBOV vaccine was developed according to the 2014 epidemic Zaire strain and formulated as freeze-dry products which could be stored at 4℃. In 2014, a single center, double-blind, placebo control, dose-escalation phase 1 clinical trial was performed in Taizhou, China. Our findings show that the Ad5-EBOV vaccine is safe and robustly immunogenic. One shot of the high dose vaccine could mount glycoprotein-specific humoral and T-cell response against Ebola virus in 14 days. The investigators intent to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a booster dose of the recombinant Ebola adenovirus vector vaccine (Ad5-EBOV) in healthy adults after primary immunization in this add in study. The investigators expect that the boosting immunization with a same vaccine for primary immunization is possible and could confer a longer-lived protection when needed. The phase I trial has been unblind 28 days after the primary vaccination, but all the subjects are still kept blind as well as the laboratory staffs. Therefore, this booster vaccination trial will be conduct in single blind.
The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the safety and immunogenicity of two candidate Ebola vaccines Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo, in a 2-dose heterologous regimen.
The study evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of 3 consistency lots and a high-dose lot of rVSV-ZEBOV-GP (V920 Ebola Vaccine) in healthy adults. The primary purpose of this study was to demonstrate consistency in the immune responses of participants receiving 3 separate lots of V920 through 28 days postvaccination. In addition to the 3 lot groups, a high-dose group and a placebo group were studied. A subset of participants representative of all treatment groups continued through 24 months postvaccination in the extension study for the evaluation of long-term safety. The primary hypothesis states that the geometric mean titer of anti-Zaire ebolavirus envelope (ZEBOV) glycoprotein antibody at 28 days postvaccination is equivalent across the three consistency lots.
This is a clinical trial in which healthy volunteers will be administered two experimental Ebola vaccines: ChAd3-EBO-Z and Ad26.ZEBOV. Four groups of volunteers will be vaccinated with both vaccines one after the other in a prime/boost regimen. All ChAd3-EBO-Z doses are 1x10^11 vp and all Ad26.ZEBOV doses are 5x10^10 vp. Group 1 will receive a ChAd3-EBO-Z priming vaccine and an Ad26.ZEBOV boosting vaccine 28 days later. Group 2 will receive an Ad26.ZEBOV priming vaccine and a ChAd3-EBO-Z boosting vaccine 28 days later. Group 3 will receive a ChAd3-EBO-Z priming vaccine and an Ad26.ZEBOV boosting vaccine 56 days later. Group 4 will receive an Ad26.ZEBOV priming vaccine and a ChAd3-EBO-Z boosting vaccine 56 days later. The study will assess the safety of the vaccinations, and the immune responses to vaccination. Immune responses are measured by tests on blood samples. The ChAd3-EBO-Z and Ad26.ZEBOV vaccines are called viral vectored vaccines. They are made from viruses which are modified so that they cannot multiply. The viruses have extra DNA in them so that after injection, the body makes Ebola proteins (but Ebola does not develop), so that the immune system builds a response to Ebola without having been infected by it. Healthy volunteers will be recruited in Oxford and London, England. The study will be co-funded by GSK Biologicals and Crucell Holland BV.
This is a clinical trial in which healthy volunteers will be administered two experimental Ebola vaccines: ChAd3-EBO Z and MVA-EBO Z. Two groups of volunteers will be vaccinated with both vaccines one after the other in a prime/boost regimen. All ChAd3-EBO Z doses are 2.5 x 10^10 - 3.7 x 10^10 vp and all MVA-EBO Z doses are 1.0 x 10^8 pfu. All volunteers will receive a ChAd3-EBO Z priming vaccine and a MVA-EBO Z boosting vaccine 7 days later. The site of administration of the MVA-EBO Z vaccine differs between the two groups: Group 1 will receive the MVA-EBO Z vaccine in the same arm as the ChAd3-EBO Z vaccine. Group 2 will receive the MVA-EBO Z vaccine in the opposite arm from the ChAd3-EBO Z vaccine. The study will assess the safety of the vaccinations, and the immune responses to vaccination. Immune responses are measured by tests on blood samples. The ChAd3-EBO Z and MVA-EBO Z vaccines are called viral vectored vaccines. They are made from viruses which are modified so that they cannot multiply. The viruses have extra DNA in them so that after injection, the body makes Ebola proteins (but Ebola does not develop), so that the immune system builds a response to Ebola without having been infected by it. Healthy volunteers will be recruited in Dakar, Senegal. The study will be funded by GSK.
This is a clinical trial in which healthy volunteers will be administered experimental Ebola vaccines. The investigators will vaccinate four groups of volunteers. Group one will receive the MVA-EBO Z vaccine once at the dose of 1 x 10^8 pfu. Three groups will receive the prime vaccine cAd3-EBO Z followed by the boost vaccine, MVA EBO Z. The second group of volunteers will receive the boost vaccine after 14 +/-7 days at a dose of 1 x 10^8 pfu and the third and fourth group, after 28 +/- 7 days but at different concentrations of MVA-EBO Z (1 x 10^8 pfu for group 3 and 1.5 x 10^8 pfu for group 4). The study will assess the safety of the vaccinations, and the immune responses to vaccination. Immune responses are measured by tests on blood samples. The cAd3-EBO Z and MVA-EBO Z vaccines are called viral vectored vaccines. They are made from viruses which are modified so that they cannot multiply. The viruses have extra DNA in them so that after injection, the body makes Ebola proteins (but Ebola does not develop), so that the immune system builds a response to Ebola without having been infected by it. Healthy volunteers will be recruited in Oxford and London England. The study will be funded by the Wellcome Trust.
Background: - Ebola is a lethal disease. A lot is still unknown about Ebola and its long-term effects. Researchers want to learn what ill health conditions Ebola survivors have. They want to learn if Ebola survivors can infect others in their household through close contact. They also want to learn if Ebola survivors are immune from getting Ebola again. To learn these things, they want to follow people in Liberia for 5 years. Objectives: - To learn how Ebola affects the health of survivors and the people they live with. Eligibility: - People in Liberia who had Ebola in the past 2 years, who share a household with someone who had Ebola, or who got ill and went to an Ebola Treatment Unit but were sent home because they did not have Ebola. Design: - Participants will be screened with family illness history, physical exam, and blood tests. They may have an eye exam. - Ebola survivors and those who went to a Treatment Unit but did not have Ebola will visit a clinic at 3, 6, and 12 months, then every 6 months for 5 years. At each visit, they will repeat the screening tests. - Participants who live with someone who had Ebola will have only the screening visit. But they may be asked to return for follow-up visits. These visits will help researchers learn more about the differences between those who have had Ebola and those who have not. - Participants brought to the NIH Clinical Center will have documentation of positive Ebola virus PCR and a clinical syndrome compatible with acute EVD. - The study will last 5 years.
