Safety, Immunogenicity, and Dose Ranging Study of Inactivated Zika Virus Vaccine in Healthy Participants
Description

The purpose of this study is to describe the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of two doses of purified inactivated Zika virus vaccine (PIZV) given 28 days apart. Three different vaccine doses containing different protein concentrations (2, 5 or 10 microgram \[mcg\]) each, will be given as 2 dose schedule to flavivirus naive and primed healthy adults. Participants will be followed for 7 days post each dose for tolerability and up to 6 months post dose 2 for safety. Immunogenicity assessment will be performed at 28 days post each dose and 6 months post dose 2. In addition, the selected dose group and control group will be followed till 24 months post dose 2 for safety and persistence of immunity.

Homologous Re-infection With Dengue 1 or Dengue 3
Description

Previous studies with one dengue infection in a controlled environment at Upstate generated data that has been important in understanding the clinical signs and symptoms and how a person's body reacts to dengue infection over time. This has helped investigators compare what is seen in the clinic to what is seen in areas where dengue is prevalent. The investigators want to collect similar information when a person gets the same dengue twice in a controlled environment with the hope that this will lead them to a better understanding of the disease. New participants * will receive one inoculation of dengue and then return to the clinic or be contacted by phone over 6 months; * will receive a second inoculation after 6 months and return to the clinic or be contacted by phone for three more months; * will collect saliva at home; * will allow the study team to collect blood and saliva at the clinic visits. Participants who have been in previous dengue inoculation studies at SUNY Upstate * will receive one inoculation of dengue and then return to the clinic or be contacted by phone over 6 months; * will collect saliva at home; * will allow the study team to collect blood and saliva at the clinic visits. All participants will be seen in the clinic every other day for the first three weeks after any inoculation.

Dengue 3 Human Infection Model (DENV-3)
Description

To evaluate the effectiveness of candidate dengue vaccine formulations, it is prudent to develop an appropriate challenge model. This study will examine the safety and effectiveness of the Dengue 3 Live Virus Human Challenge (DENV-3-LVHC) product and assess the ability of this virus strain to elicit an uncomplicated dengue-like illness.

Expansion of a Dengue-1 Live Virus Human Challenge
Description

To evaluate the effectiveness of candidate dengue vaccine formulations, it is prudent to develop an appropriate challenge model. This study supports the expansion of the data set of the current Dengue 1 Live Virus Human Challenge (DENV-1-LVHC) model to produce uncomplicated dengue-like illness.

Safety and Pharmacokinetics of UV-4B Solution Administered Orally as Multiple Ascending Doses to Healthy Subjects
Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of UV-4B oral solution when administered to healthy subjects three times a day (TID) for 7 days.

Conditions
COMPLETED
Study to Determine the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of UV-4B Solution Administered Orally in Healthy Subjects
Description

The objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single-ascending oral dose of UV-4B in healthy subjects and to determine pharmacokinetic parameters describing absorption and elimination following a single dose of UV-4B in healthy subjects.

A Phase 1, First-in-human, Double-blinded, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial of a Zika Virus Purified Inactivated Vaccine (ZPIV) With Alum Adjuvant in Healthy Flavivirus-naive and Flavivirus-Primed Subjects.
Description

Phase 1 study to evaluate two doses of Alum Adjuvanted Zika Virus Purified Inactivated Vaccine (ZPIV) administered 28 days apart. The study will enroll 75 flavivirus naïve healthy adult subjects into 3 equal groups sequentially. Each group will include 20 ZPIV recipients and 5 placebo recipients. Group 1 will receive two ZPIV or placebo doses 28 days apart. Those in Group 1 who consent to a third ZPIV dose will receive 5.0 mcg dose of ZPIV or placebo administered IM on Day 224. Group 2 subjects will receive a two-dose regimen of IXIARO® 28 days apart; two ZPIV or placebo doses three months later 28 days apart. Those in Group 2 who consent to a third ZPIV dose will receive it on Day 336. Group 3 subjects will receive one dose of YF-VAX® followed three months later by two ZPIV or placebo doses 28 days apart. Those in Group 3 who consent to a third ZPIV dose will receive it on Day 308. In each group, those who do not agree to receive the third ZPIV dose will be followed based on the schedule. The primary objectives are: 1) To evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of a two-dose homologous prime boost regimen of ZPIV among flavivirus-naïve, YF-VAX® primed, and IXIARO® primed subjects; 2) To evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of a third dose of ZPIV in consenting subjects.

VRC 320: A Phase I, Randomized Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of a Zika Virus DNA Vaccine, VRC-ZKADNA090-00-VP, Administered Via Needle and Syringe or Needle-free Injector, PharmaJet, inHealthy Adults
Description

Background: People get Zika virus from infected mosquitos. They usually don t get very sick. But birth defects were reported in babies born to mothers who had Zika infection. In rare cases, people with Zika infection had a nervous system disease that causes severe muscle weakness and can be life threatening. A new vaccine made from DNA in the code for a Zika virus protein could help the body build an immune response against the virus. Objectives: To see if a new vaccine against Zika virus disease is safe and causes any side effects. To study specific immune responses to the vaccine. Eligibility: Healthy people ages 18-50 Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Urine tests Participants will have 18 visits over 2 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 groups. All will get 3 vaccines at 3 separate monthly visits. They will receive the vaccine in the upper arm muscle. Some will get it by needle and syringe, others by a device that uses high pressure to push the vaccine through the skin. Vaccine visits last 4-6 hours. Participants will get a thermometer to measure their temperature and a ruler to measure any skin changes at the injection site. They will record this data for 7 days after each injection. Other visits last 1-2 hours. These include: Evaluation of any health changes or problems Blood tests: Some samples may be used for future research. Participants with side effects may have extra visits. ...

Safety and Immunogenicity of a Zika Virus DNA Vaccine, VRC-ZKADNA085-00-VP, in Healthy Adults
Description

Background: The Zika virus is passed to humans by infected mosquitos. It usually causes fever, rash, joint pain, and red eyes. Recently, some cases of microcephaly (abnormally small head) were reported in babies born to mothers infected with the Zika virus. Rare cases of a severe nerve weakness called Guillain-Barr(SqrRoot)(Copyright) syndrome were reported in some people with Zika virus infection. There is currently no cure for or vaccine against the infection. VRC-ZKADNA085-00-VP is a new vaccine that instructs the body to make a small amount of Zika virus protein. The body may use this to build an immune response. Objective: To see if VRC-ZKADNA085-00-VP is safe and causes any side effects. Eligibility: Healthy people ages 18 35 Design: Participants will be screened through a separate protocol with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Lab and urine tests Participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 study groups. They will have about 18 clinic visits over 2 years. Most will occur in the first year, with long-term follow-up visits at months 18 and 24. Visits include a physical exam and blood and urine tests. Participants will have vaccine injections. A high-pressure device pushes the vaccine through the skin and into the muscle of the upper arm. They will have 2-3 injections depending on their group. Vaccine visits last 4-6 hours. Others last 1-2 hours. Participants will keep a diary for 7 days after each injection. They will record their temperature and measure any skin changes at the injection site each day. Participants might have extra visits and blood tests if they have health changes.
