A Phase I Study to Determine the Safety and Immunogenicity of the Candidate Influenza Vaccine ChAdOx1-NP+M1

December 1, 2014 updated by: University of Oxford
This is a first in man dose escalation study, to assess the safety and immunogenicity of the candidate influenza vaccine ChAdOx1-NP+M1. All volunteers recruited will be healthy adults aged 18-50. Volunteers will be enrolled and doses will be escalated according to a "3+3" study plan. Up to 24 volunteers will be vaccinated. Following one dose of the vaccine, volunteers will be followed up to assess the side effect profile of the vaccine and to take blood tests. A series of immunology assays will be performed to determine how potent the vaccine is at inducing an immune response.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

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 to 50 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

The volunteer must satisfy all the following criteria to be eligible for the study:

  • Men and women aged 18-50
  • Resident in or near Oxford for the duration of the vaccination study
  • Able and willing (in the Investigators' opinions) to comply with all study requirements
  • Willing to allow the investigators to discuss the volunteer's medical history with their General Practitioner
  • Willingness to use effective contraception for 4 weeks from the date of vaccination
  • Agreement to refrain from blood donation for 4 weeks from the date of vaccination
  • Written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

The volunteer may not enter the study if any of the following apply:

  • Participation in another research study involving an investigational product in the 30 days preceding enrolment, or planned use during the study period
  • Previous receipt of any recombinant adenoviral vectored vaccine
  • Previous receipt of MVA-NP+M1
  • Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the planned administration of the vaccine candidate
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient state, including HIV infection; asplenia; recurrent, severe infections and chronic (more than 14 days) immunosuppressant medication within the past 6 months (inhaled/topical steroids are allowed)
  • History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine
  • Any history of anaphylaxis in reaction to vaccination
  • History of cancer (except basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ)
  • History of serious psychiatric condition
  • Any chronic illness requiring ongoing or awaiting hospital specialist supervision, other than minor surgical procedures and follow up of surgery over 6 months prior to screening.
  • Suspected or known current injecting drug or alcohol abuse (as defined by an alcohol intake of greater than 42 units every week)
  • Seropositive for hepatitis B surface (HBsAg) or hepatitis C virus (antibodies to HCV)
  • Pregnancy, lactation or willingness/intention to become pregnant during the study
  • Any other significant disease, disorder or finding (including blood test results), which, in the opinion of the Investigators, would either put the volunteer at risk because of participation in the study, or may influence the result of the study.
  • No response / confirmation from GP regarding previous medical history

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
