Brief Summary:
This study is to assesss the safety and immunogenicity of vaccine based on Modified Vaccinia Ankara MVA expressing the 85A antigen from Mycobacterium tuberculosis This vaccine is delivered intrdermally by a needle injection in healthy volunteers
Detailed Description:
1 This is a phase I study to assesss the safety and immunogenicity a recombinant MVA encoding a secreted antigen from Mycobacterium tuberculosis Antigen 85A delivered intrdermally by a needle injection in healthy BCG naive volunteers
2 Selection of volunteers
Volunteers for the study will be recruited through advertisements Each volunteer will have received an information sheet concerning the study and will have agreed to participate in writing Volunteers will be given at least 48 hours between reading the information leaflet and agreeing to participate Female volunteers will be told of the theoretical risk of congenital anomaly should they become pregnant during the study and only those who undertake to take precautions to avoid pregnancy during the study period will be eligible Volunteers will give signed consent for their GPs to be notified about their participation in the trial The GP will be faxed a letter on the day of screening and asked to reply if they know of a reason why the volunteer should not take part The signed consent form will also be faxed with the letter
3 Screening
Volunteers will be asked to sign the informed consent form for screening The following will be performed
Medical history and examination
Laboratory evaluations - including clinical chemistry haematology HLA typing anti-vaccinia antibodies anti-HBV antibodies anti-HCV antibodies anti-HIV antibodies
Heaf test - to exclude prior exposure to TB
Urinalysis and urine pregnancy test if female
4 Inclusion Criteria
Healthy adult aged 18-45 years
Normal medical history and physical examination
Normal urine dipstick blood count liver enzymes and creatinine
5 Exclusion Criteria
1 Exposure to TBBCG vaccination at any point Previous residence in a TB endemic area
2 Clinically significant history of skin disorder eczema psoriasis etc allergy immunodeficiency cardiovascular disease respiratory disease endocrine disorder liver disease renal disease gastrointestinal disease neurological illness psychiatric disorder drug or alcohol abuse
3 Oral or systemic steroid medication or the use of immunosuppressive agents
4 Positive HIV antibody test HCV antibody test or positive HBV serology except post-vaccination
5 Positive Heaf test
6 Confirmed pregnancy
7 Previous MVA immunisations
6 Withdrawal Criteria
1 Withdrawal of consent by subject for any reason
2 Loss to follow-up
3 Non-compliance with study procedures
4 Protocol violation
5 Serious adverse event as defined in Appendix 3
6 Any other reason at discretion of the Principal Investigator
7 Confirmed pregnancy during study period
7 Immunisation
On Day 0 and Day 21 subjects will receive a single intradermal injection of 5 x 107pfu in 01ml over the deltoid muscle Subjects will be observed for an hour after all immunisations Vital signs will be monitored at 30 and 60 minutes post-immunisation Local reactions at the site of administration will be evaluated at 60 minutes
A photograph of the injection site may be taken at 48 hours with written consent The injection site will be reviewed 7 days after each immunization
Blood will be taken at the following time points At the screening visit prior to the first vaccination 1 week after the first vaccination prior to the second vaccination 1 week after the second vaccination 4 weeks 8 weeks 12 weeks and 24 weeks after the second vaccination Up to 55 mls will be taken at any one time with the total being no more than 500 mls over the study period Samples taken on these dates will be tested for full blood count and biochemical screen Immunological assays will be performed at all time points to determine vaccine immunogenicity A pregnancy test will be performed on screening and each vaccination day prior to vaccination for female volunteers Peripheral blood mononuclear cells will be prepared for cellular immunological assays to be performed without or following cryopreservation Other serological measures of immune response ie antibody titres will be assayed on frozen plasma samples
At the end of the six month follow-up period volunteers will be offered BCG immunisation If they accept imunological monitering will continue for a further six months 50mls of blood will be taken for cellular immunological assays 1 week 2 weeks 1 month 2 months 3 months and 6 months after BCG immunisation
All blood tests will be taken within 1-3 days of the due date as described in the schedule above
8 Endpoints
The occurance and severity of local side-effects The occurance and severity of systemic side-effects The induction of T cell responses as measured by an interferon-gamma Elispot assay
Proliferation assays and cytotoxic T cell assays will be performed on strong CD4 and CD8 responses respectively
