Safety and Immunogenicity of a 2-Dose Heterologous Vaccination Regimen With Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo Ebola Vaccines: 12-Month Data From a Phase 1 Randomized Clinical Trial in Uganda and Tanzania.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Ebola vaccine development was accelerated in response to the 2014 Ebola virus infection outbreak. This phase 1 study (VAC52150EBL1004) assessed safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of heterologous 2-dose Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo vaccination regimens in the Lake Victoria Basin of Tanzania and Uganda in mid-level altitude, malaria-endemic settings. METHODS:Healthy volunteers aged 18-50 years from Tanzania (n = 25) and Uganda (n = 47) were randomized to receive placebo or active vaccination with Ad26.ZEBOV or MVA-BN-Filo (first vaccination), followed by MVA-BN-Filo or Ad26.ZEBOV (second vaccination) dose 2, respectively, with intervals of 28 or 56 days. RESULTS:Seventy-two adults were randomized to receive vaccine (n = 60) or placebo (n = 12). No vaccine-related serious adverse events were reported. The most frequent solicited local and systemic adverse events were injection site pain (frequency, 70%, 66%, and 42% per dose for MVA-BN-Filo, Ad26.ZEBOV, and placebo, respectively) and headache (57%, 56%, and 46%, respectively). Adverse event patterns were similar among regimens. Twenty-one days after dose 2, 100% of volunteers demonstrated binding antibody responses against Ebola virus glycoprotein, and 87%-100% demonstrated neutralizing antibody responses. Ad26.ZEBOV dose 1 vaccination induced more-robust initial binding antibody and cellular responses than MVA-BN-Filo dose 1 vaccination. CONCLUSIONS:Heterologous 2-dose vaccination with Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo against Ebola virus is well tolerated and immunogenic in healthy volunteers. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION:NCT02376400.

Project description:We assessed whether the immunogenicity of the two-dose Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo Ebola vaccine regimen with a 56-day interval between doses was affected by exposure to malaria before dose 1 vaccination and by clinical episodes of malaria in the period immediately after dose 1 and after dose 2 vaccinations. Previous malaria exposure in participants in an Ebola vaccine trial in Sierra Leone (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02509494) was classified as low, intermediate, and high according to their antibody responses to a panel of Plasmodium falciparum antigens detected using a Luminex MAGPIX platform. Clinical malaria episodes after vaccinations were recorded as part of the trial safety monitoring. Binding antibody responses against the Ebola virus (EBOV) glycoprotein (GP) were measured 57 days post dose 1 and 21 days post dose 2 by ELISA and summarized as Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs). Geometric Mean Ratios (GMRs) were used to compare groups with different levels of exposure to malaria. Overall, 587 participants, comprising 188 (32%) adults (aged ≥ 18 years) and 399 (68%) children (aged 1-3, 4-11, and 12-17 years), were included in the analysis. There was no evidence that the anti-EBOV-GP antibody GMCs post dose 1 and post dose 2 differed between categories of previous malaria exposure. There was weak evidence that the GMC at 57 days post dose 1 was lower in participants who had had at least one episode of clinical malaria post dose 1 compared to participants with no diagnosed clinical malaria in the same period (GMR = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.69-0.98, p-value = 0.02). However, GMC post dose 2 was not reduced in participants who experienced clinical malaria post-dose 1 and/or post-dose 2 vaccinations. In conclusion, the Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo Ebola vaccine regimen is immunogenic in individuals with previous exposure to malaria and in those who experience clinical malaria after vaccination. This vaccine regimen is suitable for prophylaxis against Ebola virus disease in malaria-endemic regions.
