Descriptive Information

• Brief Title: A Study to Assess Safety and Immunogenicity of Conserved Mosaic HIV-1 Vaccines
• Official Title: A Phase I Dose Escalation Open Label Trial to Assess Safety and Immunogenicity of Candidate ChAdOx1- and MVA- Vectored Conserved Mosaic HIV-1 Vaccines Given Sequentially to Healthy HIV-1 Negative Adult Volunteers in Oxford, UK

Brief Summary

The object of the study is to assess the safety profile of candidate vaccines ChAdOx1.tHIVconsv1, MVA.tHIVconsv3 and MVA.tHIVcnsv4 administered sequentially in healthy HIV-1/2 negative adult volunteers.

In addition, the study will assess the immune responses generated of the candidate vaccines ChAdOx1.tHIVconsv1, MV.tHIVconsv3 and MVA.tHIVconsv4 administered sequentially in healthy HIV-1/2 negative adult volunteers.

3 healthy, HIV-1 negative adult volunteers will receive one vaccination of low dose ChAdOx1.tHIVconsv1. A further 10 healthy, HIV-1 negative adult volunteers will receive a higher dose of ChAdOx1.tHIVconsv1, followed by one vaccination each of MVA.tHIVconsv3 and MVA.tHIVconsv4 4 weeks later.
