Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Safety and tolerability, as judged by local and systemic reactogenicity signs and symptoms, laboratory measures, and adverse events

    After each injection and 12 months after the first injection

  • Immunogenicity, as judged by qualitative HIV-1-specific T-cell responses

    At Days 98 and 210
