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 65 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

  • Sign and date the approved informed consent document and HIPAA Authorization.
  • Have in their charts:
  • medical history (including concomitant medications) within 60 days of planned first administration of vaccine
  • physical examination and laboratory tests within 1 year
  • previous chest radiograph results and electrocardiogram
  • Be medically cleared for participation by an investigator. (Examinations and/or tests may be repeated at the discretion of the PI.)
  • Be willing to return for all follow-up visits.
  • Agree to report any adverse events (AEs) that may or may not be associated with administration of the vaccine for at least 28 days after administration and agree to report all serious adverse events (for example, resulting in hospitalization) for the duration of the subject's participation in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have completed previous RVF vaccine study as a nonresponder (PRNT80 <1:40).
  • Have clinically significant abnormal laboratory results (including evidence of hepatitis C, hepatitis B carrier state) or elevated liver function tests (two times the normal range or at the discretion of the PI).
  • Have a personal history of an immunodeficiency or received treatment with an immunosuppressive medication, such as systemically administered glucocorticoids (eg prednisone) within 1 month before planned administration of the vaccine or with other immunosuppressive therapies within 6 months of planned administration of the vaccine. Other immunosuppressive therapies include all cancer chemotherapeutic agents, drugs to prevent transplant rejection, interferons, monoclonal antibodies, protein kinase inhibitors, methotrexate, TNF (tumor necrosis factor) inhibitors, and any other drug determined to be immunosuppressive by the PI. Current administration of topical, inhalational, or intranasal glucocorticoids is not excluded.

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Subjects with Local and Systemic Adverse Events and Their Relationship to the Study Vaccine
Time Frame: 0-28 days after each dose
Safety assess of local and systemic adverse events and their relationship to the study vaccine. AEs will be recorded for 28 days after each dose of the vaccine for the assessment population (all subjects who receive at least one vaccination under this protocol. Subjects will be contacted by study staff via e-mail or telephone the day after vaccination (Day 1) and once per week for 4 weeks after each vaccination to discuss any reactions.
0-28 days after each dose
Percentage of Subjects Who Developed Titers of ≥1:40 of Per-protocol Subjects
Time Frame: 21-35 days after each vaccination and month 12
Percentage of per-protocol subjects (subjects who adhered to the protocol schedule for both vaccination and blood collects) who developed titers ≥1:40 as determined by PRNT80 (plaque reduction neutralization 80% titer) after vaccination at each scheduled time point for which blood samples are drawn and over the entire study period.
21-35 days after each vaccination and month 12

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Frequency and Severity of Adverse Events
Time Frame: 0-28 days after each dose
Frequency and severity of adverse events for the assessment population (all subjects who receive at least one vaccination under this protocol). Subjects will be contacted by study staff via e-mail or telephone the day after vaccination (Day 1) and once per week for 4 weeks after each vaccination to discuss any reactions.

21-35 days after each vaccination and month 12

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Geometric Mean PRNT50 (plaque reduction neutralization 50% titer) of Per-protocol Subjects
