NCT03820739

Brief Summary

The VAC52150EBL3005 (EBOVAC-Salone Extension) is a cohort study evaluating the long-term safety and immunogenicity of the candidate Ebola vaccines Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN®-Filo in participants who were exposed to these vaccines in the VAC52150EBL3001 trial (EBOVAC-Salone, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02509494). No investigational vaccine will be administered during this study. The study will consist of an enrolment visit, a number of study visits and an end-of-study visit.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Serious Adverse Events in subjects who received an Ebola vaccine prime vaccination in the EBOVAC-Salone trial.

    An SAE is any AE that results in: death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, is life-threatening experience, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and may jeopardize participant and/or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

    Up to approximately 5 years in adults and 4 years in children from prime vaccination

  • Binding antibody responses against EBOV GP using Filovirus Animal Non-Clinical Group (FANG) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Serum Concentration of Antibodies Binding to EBOV GP measured by Filovirus Animal Non-Clinical Group (FANG) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Up to approximately 5 years in adults and 4 years in children from prime vaccination

  • Number of Serious Adverse Events, in infants conceived by an EBOVAC-Salone trial female participant during the 3-month period following vaccination with Ad26.ZEBOV or during the 28 day period following vaccination with MVA-BN®-Filo.

    An SAE is any AE that results in: death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, is life-threatening experience, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and may jeopardize participant and/or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

    From birth to their fifth birthday

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Neutralising antibody responses directed against EBOV GP as measured by a pseudovirion neutralisation assay (psVNA)

    At years 2, 3 and 4 post-prime in children and years 3, 4 and 5 post-prime in adults

  • Effect of previous infection with malaria, determined using validated ELISA and bead based assays, on the persistence of the humoral immune response to vaccination.

    Up to approximately 5 years in adults and 4 years in children from prime vaccination

Study Arms (2)

Cohort 1

Subjects who received an Ebola vaccine prime vaccination in EBOVAC-Salone are eligible for enrolment in this study. Adults are defined as participants 18 years of age or older at the time of prime vaccination, and children are defined as participants aged 1 to 17 years at the time of prime vaccination in EBOVAC-Salone.

Other: Follow-upOther: Blood sample collection

Cohort 2 (offspring)

Infants conceived by a female participant in EBOVAC-Salone during the 3 months following vaccination with Ad26.ZEBOV or during the 28 days following vaccination with MVA-BN®-Filo.

Other: Follow-up

Interventions

No investigational vaccine will be administered during this study

Cohort 1Cohort 2 (offspring)

Blood sampling to assess vaccine-induced immune responses will be conducted only in cohort 1 in a subsample consisting of approximately 102 adults and 165 children (55 from each of the three paediatric age groups that were enrolled in EBOVAC-Salone: 12-17 year olds, 4-11 year olds, and 1-3 year olds).

Study Population

The study will be open to subjects who were exposed to Ad26.ZEBOV and/or MVA-BN®-Filo in the EBOVAC-Salone study. The study population will consist of two cohorts: * Cohort 1: subjects who received an Ebola vaccine prime vaccination in EBOVAC-Salone are eligible for enrolment in this study. Adults are defined as participants 18 years of age or older at the time of prime vaccination, and children are defined as participants aged 1 to 17 years at the time of prime vaccination. * Cohort 2 (offspring) will consist of infants conceived by a female participant in EBOVAC-Salone during the 3 months following vaccination with Ad26.ZEBOV or during the 28 days following vaccination with MVA-BN®-Filo.

You may qualify if:

  • Must be a participant, or former participant, of the EBOVAC-Salone study, and received Ebola vaccine prime vaccination.
  • or Must be an infant conceived by a female participant of EBOVAC-Salone during the 3-month period following vaccination with Ad26.ZEBOV or the 28 day period following vaccination with MVA-BN®-Filo.
  • Must consent to participate in the EBOVAC-Salone Extension study by signing (or thumbprinting, if illiterate) an ICF, indicating that he or she understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in the study. If a potential participant cannot read or write, the procedures must be explained and informed consent must be witnessed by a literate third party not involved in the conduct of the study. If the potential participant is under 18 years of age, they and their parent/guardian will be informed about the study and the parent/guardian will be asked to give consent. Children aged 7 years and older will be asked to give positive assent for their participation in the study and the assent procedure must be witnessed by an adult, literate parent/guardian/third party not involved in the conduct of the study, and documented.
  • Must confirm that he/she will return to the study site for each yearly visit.

You may not qualify if:

  • Participants in the EBOVAC-Salone study who were allocated to the control arm receiving the WHO-prequalified Meningococcal Group A, C, W135 and Y conjugate vaccine
  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are unlikely to adhere to the requirements of the study, or unlikely to complete follow up
