Evaluating the Immunogenicity of the AIDSVAX B/E Vaccine and the MVA/HIV62B Vaccine in Healthy, HIV-1-Uninfected Adults Who Previously Received MVA/HIV62B in DNA/MVA or MVA/MVA Regimens in HVTN 205

A Phase 1 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity of AIDSVAX B/E Bivalent gp120 Vaccine and MVA/HIV62B in Healthy, HIV-1-Uninfected Adult Participants Who Previously Received MVA/HIV62B in DNA/MVA or MVA/MVA Regimens in HVTN 205

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the AIDSVAX B/E vaccine and the MVA/HIV62B vaccine in healthy, HIV-1-uninfected adults who previously received MVA/HIV62B in DNA/MVA or MVA/MVA vaccine regimens in the HVTN 205 study.

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the AIDSVAX B/E vaccine and the MVA/HIV62B vaccine in healthy, HIV-1-uninfected adults who previously received MVA/HIV62B in DNA/MVA or MVA/MVA vaccine regimens as part of the HVTN 205 study. Participants in this study will be assigned to one of five groups based on their previous vaccine regimen received in HVTN 205. Depending on their group, participants will receive the MVA/HIV62B vaccine, the AIDSVAX B/E vaccine, or both the MVA/HIV62B vaccine and the AIDSVAX B/E vaccine. All participants will receive their assigned vaccines at study entry (Day 0) and Month 4. Participants will attend several study visits through Month 10. Visits will include physical examinations, blood collection, HIV testing and risk reduction counseling, and interviews and questionnaires. Optional procedures at some visits include collection of rectal fluids, cervical fluids, and semen. Study staff will contact participants 2 years following the initial study injection for follow-up health monitoring.

Participants who received 3 sequential administrations of MVA/HIV62B in HVTN 205 will receive the MVA/HIV62B vaccine in their left deltoid at Months 0 and 4. They will receive placebo in their right deltoid at Months 0 and 4.

Occurrence of Env-specific IgG Responses for gp120, gp41, V1/V2, and the IDR of gp41 at 2 Weeks After Each Boost

Serum HIV-1-specific IgG responses were measured on a Bio-Plex instrument using a standardized custom Luminex assay. The readout is background-subtracted mean fluorescent intensity (MFI), with background adjustment for an antigen-specific plate level control. For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI less than 1 is set to 1. The measure unit fluorescence units are relative to assay background, not relative to the placebo arm. Background is used here rather than negative control stimulation, since the antigens are used as bead coating rather than stimulation. The responses to the IDR of gp41 was not assayed.

Occurrence of Neutralizing Ab Titers and Breadth Against the Env Vaccine Strain and Heterologous Tier 1 Strains at 2 Weeks After Each Boost

Neutralizing antibodies against HIV-1 were measured as a function of reductions in Tat-regulated luciferase (Luc) reporter gene expression in TZM-bl cells. The assay measured neutralization titers against a panel of autologous and heterologous Env-pseudotyped viruses. A serum neutralization titer was defined as the serum dilution that reduced relative luminescence units (RLUs) by 50% (ID50) relative to the RLUs in virus control wells (cells + virus only) after subtraction of background RLU (cells only). Titer < 10 is truncated at 5.

Occurrence of CD4+ T Cell Responses to the HIV Proteins Included in the Vaccine 2 Weeks After Each Boost

PBMC samples are stimulated with synthetic peptide pools or left unstimulated as a negative control. For each sample, T-cell subset, and peptide pool, response magnitude is % cells expressing markers after peptide stimulation minus % cells expressing markers after no stimulation. Response positivity is derived by testing if the number of cells expressing the marker is equal in the stimulated vs. unstimulated cells. Response is positive if the one-sided Fisher's exact test (discrete Bonferroni adjustment over the peptide pools) p<=0.00001. The Fisher's exact test is not applied to compare between endpoints. Data are excluded if the blood draw date was outside the visit window, the participant was HIV-infected, PBMC viability or T-cell count were low, or negative control was high. The responses at month 0.5 was not assayed.
