Nipah Virus Infection Clinical Trial
Official title:

Background: Nipah virus (NiV) is transmitted from animals to humans, from humans to humans, and through contaminated food. Infected people may have a cough and trouble breathing. Some people may develop serious symptoms, such as brain inflammation, that can lead to death. There are no drugs or vaccines to treat or prevent NiV infection. Objective: To test the safety of an experimental vaccine (mRNA-1215) for NiV. Researchers will also evaluate how participants bodies respond to the vaccine. Eligibility: Healthy, nonpregnant adults aged 18 to 60 years. Design: Participants will visit the NIH clinic 13 to 15 times over 14 to 16 months. Participants will get 2 doses of the experimental vaccine during this study at either 1 month or 4 months apart. The vaccine will be given as a shot into the muscle of the upper arm. Participants will stay in the clinic at least 30 minutes after each vaccination. Participants will be given a diary card and a thermometer. They will record their temperature and any other symptoms for 7 days after each vaccination. During each follow-up visit, 3 to 14 tubes of blood will be drawn for research. Participants may undergo an optional procedure called apheresis. A needle will be placed into a vein in each arm. Blood will be removed through one needle. The blood will pass through a machine that separates some of the blood cells. The rest of the blood will return to the body through the other needle. The study vaccine cannot cause NiV infection.

Total lymphocyte count >= 800 cells/microL. 9. Platelets = 125,000 - 500,000 cells/microL. 10. Hemoglobin within institutional normal range or accompanied by the PI or designee approval. 11. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <= 1.25 X institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). 12. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) <= 1.25 X institutional ULN. 13. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) <1.1 X institutional ULN. 14. Total bilirubin within institutional normal range or accompanied by the PI or designee approval. 15. Serum creatinine <= 1.1 X institutional ULN. 16. Negative for HIV infection by an FDA-approved method of detection Criteria applicable to women of childbearing potential: 17. Negative beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (Beta-HCG) pregnancy test (urine or serum) on the day of enrollment. 18. Agrees to use an effective means of birth control from at least 21 days prior to enrollment through the end of the study. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: A subject will be excluded if one or more of the following conditions apply: 1. Breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study. 2. More than 10 days of systemic immunosuppressive medications or cytotoxic medications within the 4 weeks prior to enrollment or any within the 14 days prior to enrollment. 3. Blood products within 16 weeks prior to enrollment. 4. Any vaccine, including COVID-19 vaccines, received within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. 5. Investigational research agents within 4 weeks prior to enrollment or planning to receive investigational products while on the study 6. Current allergy treatment with allergen immunotherapy with antigen injections, unless on maintenance schedule. 7. Current anti-TB prophylaxis or therapy. 8. Known immediate hypersensitivity to any component of the study product, including polyethylene glycol (PEG). 9. Confirmed past NiV infection, prior residence in (>6 months), or planned travel for any length of time during the study to countries where NiV infection is endemic, eg. Bangladesh, India, Philippines. Subject has a history of any of the following clinically significant conditions: 10. Serious reactions to vaccines that preclude receipt of the study vaccination, including allergic reaction (anaphylaxis, urticaria or allergic reaction requiring medical intervention) to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines, as determined by the investigator 11. History of myocarditis and/or pericarditis 12. Hereditary angioedema, acquired angioedema, or idiopathic forms of angioedema 13. Asthma that is not well controlled 14. Diabetes mellitus (type I or II), with the exception of gestational diabetes 15. Thyroid disease that is not well controlled 16. Idiopathic urticaria within the past year 17. Autoimmune disease or immunodeficiency 18. Hypertension that is not well controlled 19. Bleeding disorder diagnosed by a doctor (e.g. factor deficiency, coagulopathy, or platelet disorder requiring special precautions) or significant bruising or bleeding difficulties with IM injections or blood draws 20. Malignancy that is active or history of malignancy that is likely to recur during the period of the study 21. Seizure disorder other than 1) febrile seizures, 2) seizures secondary to alcohol withdrawal more than 3 years ago, or 3) seizures that have not required treatment within the last 3 years. 22. Asplenia, functional asplenia or any condition resulting in the absence or removal of the spleen 23. Guillain-Barre Syndrome 24. Any medical, psychiatric, social condition, occupational reason or other responsibility that, in the judgment of the investigator, is a contraindication to protocol participation or impairs a subject s ability to give informed consent, including but not limited to clinically significant forms of: infectious diseases, drug or alcohol abuse, autoimmune diseases, psychiatric disorders, or heart disease. |
