Phase 4, Observational Field Study in Patients Treated With TPOXX for Smallpox Disease
This is a Phase 3 multicenter trial to evaluate safety and immune response of three consecutive production lots of freeze-dried (FD) MVA-BN smallpox vaccine. The vaccine will be given to healthy subjects who do not have a smallpox scar. Approximately 1110 subjects will be randomly enrolled into one of three groups: Group 1 will include 370 subjects, who will receive two separate injections (shot) with a short needle, given below the skin of the upper arm with 0.5 mL FD MVA-BN (Lot 1). Group 2 will include 370 subjects, who will receive two separate injections (shot) with a short needle, given below the skin of the upper arm with 0.5 mL FD MVA-BN (Lot 2). Group 3 will include 370 subjects, who will receive two separate injections (shot) with a short needle, given below the skin of the upper arm with 0.5 mL FD MVA-BN (Lot 3). The primary objective of the trial is to show that the immune response elicited (produced) by three consecutively produced MVA-BN lots are statistically (numerically) comparable.
Mpox is a febrile rash illness caused by the monkeypox virus. Its natural occurrence in the DRC puts healthcare and frontline workers at high risk of acquiring monkeypox virus infections that can prevent them from performing work duties, compromise the overall healthcare delivery in an already fragile system, and can result in death (case fatality estimates are approximately 10%). This is an open-label prospective cohort study in up to 1,600 eligible healthcare workers at risk of mpox infection through their daily work. The study will document mpox exposure and infection in participants while concurrently evaluating the immunogenicity and safety of the vaccine, JYNNEOS (also known as MVA-BN, IMVAMUNE®, IMVANEX), in healthcare personnel in the DRC. Participation in the study is voluntary and open to male and female healthcare personnel ages 18 years and older in Tshuapa Province in The Democratic Republic of Congo who are at risk of monkeypox virus infection through their daily work or laboratory personnel performing diagnostic testing for monkeypox virus.
Multicenter, double-blind, placebo controlled, Phase 3 study to determine the safety and tolerability of oral tecovirimat, an anti orthopoxvirus compound, in subjects.
Objectives: - To vaccinate plasma donors with the ACAM2000 smallpox vaccine thereby inducing an immune response resulting in high anti-vaccinia antibody titers. The collection of donor plasma will be used in the manufacturing of Vaccinia Immune Globulin Intravenous (VIGIV). - To ensure the safety of plasma donors vaccinated with ACAM2000 through the implementation of risk factor screening procedures and the collection of post-vaccination safety data.
The purpose of this clinical protocol is to treat individuals with Tecovirimat after exposure to orthopox viruses.
The main purpose of this clinical trial is to generate additional safety data in a highly immunocompromised population. HIV-infected persons are considered excellent candidates to represent the highly immunocompromised population for enrolment in this trial. Additionally, the immune system's response (protection against smallpox as measured by the amount of antibodies produced) following injections of MVA-BN® smallpox vaccine will be evaluated. All participants in this trial will be randomly and evenly assigned to one of three groups to receive two, three or four injections. Group 1 will receive the standard regime consisting of one dose at each vaccination time point, Group 2 will receive two doses at each vaccination time point and Group 3 will receive a booster vaccination 12 weeks after the standard vaccination schedule with MVA-BN® smallpox vaccine. Participation in the trial is scheduled to last up to 75 weeks.
To demonstrate the efficacy of MVA-BN® in terms of vaccinia-specific Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT) antibody response and by showing that vaccination prior to administration of ACAM2000® results in an attenuated take.
Imvamune (licensed name of MVA being developed as a smallpox vaccine) has been tested in over 2,000 individuals and is on path for licensure. This study will be a Phase II to evaluate three different immunization schedules and two different modes of delivery. The study will look at condensed schedules. Study will randomize subjects to one of four arms.
