Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
Phase 2, randomized, active-controlled, observer-blind, multicenter trial of the immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant compared with rF1V vaccine alone in adults. Approximately two hundred healthy adults 18 to 55 years of age will be enrolled to compare a two-dose regimen of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant administered on study Days 1 and 29 (and placebo at Day 183) with a three-dose regimen of rF1V vaccine alone administered on study Days 1, 29, and 183. The study will be conducted in 2 parts (Part 1 and Part 2).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Select one method of administration of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant for Part 2 [28 days after second dose of vaccine of last participant in part 1]
To select one of the two methods of administration of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant for Part 2 by comparing humoral immunization response 28 days after the second dose of vaccine
- Assess the utility of a 2-dose schedule of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant [Through day 211 in part 2]
To assess the utility of a 2-dose schedule of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant as measured by reduction in time to onset of predicted rF1V protection
- Assess the serum Bridge ELISA concentration to rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant compared with rF1V vaccine 28 days after the second dose of vaccine [28 days after second dose of vaccine of last participant in part 2]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- To assess the safety and tolerability of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant compared with rF1V vaccine as measured by rates of reactogenicity and adverse events using grading system in CBER's toxicity guidance document. [Through week 56]
- To assess the serum Bridge ELISA concentration to rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant at selected time points after each dose [Week 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 30, 38, 50]
Other Outcome Measures
- To assess long term clinical benefit from rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant compared with rF1V vaccine [Through week 30]
- To assess the utility of a 2-dose schedule of rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant as measured by reduction in time to onset of predicted rF1V protection using peak serum Bridge ELISA concentration [Through week 30]
- To assess the peak serum bridge ELISA concentration from rF1V vaccine with CpG 1018® adjuvant compared with rF1V vaccine 28 days after the complete series [Through week 56]
