Brief Summary

This study is being done to test an experimental study vaccine compared to a placebo. The experimental study vaccine is called ID93 + GLA-SE. ID93 + GLA-SE has been used in humans in research but has not been approved for use in medical care. This study will be the first to test ID93 + GLA-SE in people living with HIV (PLWH). The injections during the study will be given to different groups of participants while they are using standard TB treatment. One of the research questions is to understand the differences in immune system responses depending on the timing of giving the injections after people begin taking standard TB treatment. Researchers also want to continue to look at whether the study vaccine is safe when tested in a larger group of people, and if getting the study vaccine in addition to standard TB treatment can help to lower the number of poor TB outcomes that people might have.

Conditions

Tuberculosis, Pulmonary

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

• Safety (Phase 2a and Phase 2b): Vaccine-related serious adverse event (SAE)

  Vaccine-related serious adverse event (SAE) at any time after first dose of ID93 + GLA-SE. The relationship to study product will be determined by the site investigator and assessed as "related" or "unrelated". Only SAEs reported as "related" will be included in this outcome measure.

  From Step 2, Day 0 through to 420, 450, 480 or 510 days (approximately 18 months after start of SOC treatment)

• Safety (Phase 2a and Phase 2b): Grade ≥3 vaccine-related unsolicited adverse event (AE)

  Grade ≥3 vaccine-related unsolicited adverse event (AE) within 28 days after either dose of study product. An unsolicited AE is defined as an AE other than a local or systemic reactogenicity AE. The relationship to study product will be determined by the site investigator and assessed as "related" or "unrelated." Only unsolicited AEs reported as "related" will be included in this outcome measure.

  Within 28 days from Step 2, Day 0 or Step 2, Day 60

• Safety (Phase 2a and Phase 2b): Grade ≥3 local or systemic reactogenicity AE

  o Systemic symptoms include increased body temperature, malaise and/or fatigue, myalgia, headache, chills, arthralgia, nausea, and vomiting. Local symptoms include pain and/or tenderness proximal to the injection site.

  Within 7 days from Step 2, Day 0 or Step 2, Day 60

• Cellular immunogenicity (Phase 2a and Phase 2b): ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response relative to the negative control stimulation

  ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response relative to the negative control stimulation (ICS response criteria: MIMOSA method) at 2 weeks post second dose of study product. CD4+ T cell response measured by ICS with magnitude indicated by cells expressing 2 of IFNγ/IL2/TNFα/CD154. MIMOSA detects responses compared to the negative control. This will be evaluated as a binary outcome (i.e., response or no response).

  Step 2, Day 75

• Cellular immunogenicity (Phase 2a and Phase 2b): ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response relative to the negative control stimulation and relative to the pre-vaccine response

  ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response relative to the negative control stimulation and relative to the pre-vaccine response (ICS response criteria: MIMOSA2 method) at 2 weeks post second dose of study product. CD4+ T cell response measured by ICS with magnitude indicated by cells expressing 2 of IFNγ/IL2/TNFα/CD154. MIMOSA2 detects responses compared to the negative control stimulation and the pre-vaccine response. This will be evaluated as a binary outcome (i.e., response or no response).

  Step 2, Day 75

• Cellular immunogenicity (Phase 2a and Phase 2b): ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response magnitude relative to the negative control stimulation

  ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response magnitude relative to the negative control stimulation at 2 weeks post second dose of study product. CD4+ T cell response measured by ICS with magnitude indicated by cells expressing 2 of IFNγ/IL2/TNFα/CD154. This will be evaluated as a continuous outcome.

  Step 2, Day 75

• Efficacy (Phase 2b): Bacteriologically confirmed TB-related unfavorable outcome (treatment failure, TB recurrence, or death due to TB)

  Bacteriologically confirmed TB-related unfavorable outcome (treatment failure, TB recurrence, or death due to TB) after receiving the first dose of study product (ID93 + GLA-SE or placebo). Bacteriological confirmation will be based on culture results from solid media and liquid media that are positive for M. tuberculosis. Culture results from the study or from outside the study (e.g., the local TB program) are acceptable.

  Step 2, Day 0 to 420, 450, 480 or 510 days (approximately 18 months after start of SOC treatment)

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• Efficacy (Phase 2a and 2b): Proportion of participants with quantifiable RS ratio

  Step 2, Days 60, 90, 120, and 150 in Groups 1, 2, 3 (and 5), and 4 (and 5), respectively (approximately 6 months after start of SOC treatment)

• Cellular immunogenicity (Phase 2a): ID93-specific CD4+ T cell response through 12 months post second dose of vaccination

  Step 2, Days 0, 15, 60, 75, 120 (Group 3 only), 150 (Group 4 only), 240, 300 (Group 3 only), 330 (Group 4 only) and 420 (Group 2 will be evaluated at Day 450 rather than 420)

• Humoral immunogenicity (Phase 2a): ID93-specific IgG response rate

  Step 2, Days 0, 15, 60, 75, 120 (Group 3 only), 150 (Group 4 only), 240, 300 (Group 3 only), 330 (Group 4 only) and 420 (Group 2 will be evaluated at Day 450 rather than 420)

• Immunogenicity (Phase 2a): Differential leukocyte count and immunophenotype

  Step 2, Days 0, 1, 15, and 75

• Immunogenicity (Phase 2a): Measurement of soluble proinflammatory mediators

  Step 2, Days 0, 1, 15, and 75
