June 23, 2005 updated by: VaxGen

Phase I/II Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of AIDSVAX B/B and B/E Vaccines in the United States

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give AIDSVAX B/B or AIDSVAX B/E, two potential HIV vaccines, to HIV-negative volunteers.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients are randomized to 1 of the 2 following arms and administered 1 or 2 injections into the deltoid muscle at 0, 1, 6, and 12 months:

Arm A: Patients receive 1 of 3 doses of AIDSVAX B/B vaccine (MN rgp120/HIV-1 plus GNE8 rgp120/HIV-1) in alum adjuvant.

Arm B: Patients receive AIDSVAX B/E (MN rgp120/HIV-1 plus A244 rgp120/HIV-1) vaccine in alum adjuvant.

Patients are evaluated at 1 hr, 3 days, and 14 days after each immunization and at 18 months after the first immunization.

An interim analysis is performed after all patients receive the second dose (at 1 month).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Patients must:
