NCT02372175

Brief Summary

To evaluate the effectiveness of candidate dengue vaccine formulations, it is prudent to develop an appropriate challenge model. To this end, this first-in-human study will examine the safety and effectiveness of the Dengue 1 Live Virus Human Challenge (DENV-1-LVHC) product and assess the ability of this virus strain to elicit an uncomplicated dengue-like illness.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 45 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Healthy, male or non-pregnant, non-lactating female
  • Age 18-45
  • Ability and willingness to sign informed consent
  • Passing score on comprehension test would be 75%, with up to 3 attempts
  • Available for the study period
  • Willing to use contraception for the duration of the study.
  • Provide consent for release of medical history records from primary care physician, college or university, urgent care or emergency room visit

You may not qualify if:

  • Female: pregnant or lactating
  • Heavy menstrual bleeding within the last 6 months-menstrual periods lasting longer than 6 days, or requiring 5 or more pads or tampons per day.
  • Female subjects using an intrauterine device (IUD) or Mirena®
  • Female subjects with fibroids or uterine polyps, endometriosis, dysmenorrhea, adenomyosis, and uterine scarring (e.g. after D\&C)
  • Blood tests confirming infection with human immunodeficiency virus- 1 (HIV-1), hepatitis C, hepatitis B surface antigen, or flavi viruses (FV) to include dengue fever, West Nile, Yellow Fever, and Japanese encephalitis.
  • Diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), peptic ulcer disease (PUD), or coronary artery disease (CAD)
  • Known or suspected congenital or acquired immunodeficiency; or receipt of immunosuppressive therapy such as anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the preceding 6 months; or long-term systemic corticosteroid therapy (prednisone or equivalent for more than 2 consecutive weeks within the past 3 months)
  • Immediate family member (e.g. parent, sibling, child) with current, or a history of immunodeficiency or autoimmune disease
  • Current or a history of auto-immune disease
  • History of Guillain Barré syndrome (GBS)
  • Any history of FV infection or FV vaccination; or planned FV vaccination, outside the study protocol, during the study period
  • History of Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, hospitalization in the past year for a mental health disorder, or any other psychiatric condition, which in the opinion of the investigator prevents the subject from participating in the study.
  • Planned travel during the study period (180 days) which would interfere with the ability to complete all study visits
  • Recent (in the past 4 weeks) travel to any dengue endemic area. These potential subjects may be eligible for enrollment a minimum of 4 weeks later
  • Any laboratory abnormalities in the tests specified in Table 19 and Table 20 of the protocol. Note: these laboratory tests can be repeated if the screening physician believes 1) it is thought to be a normal variant of a healthy state or 2) it is a suspected laboratory error
