5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety (primary objective) and immunogenicity (secondary objective) and fecal shedding of vaccine viruses (secondary objective) of two novel oral polio vaccines, nOPV1 and nOPV3, as compared to Sabin monovalent vaccine controls, in 150-230 healthy adults.
Detailed Description
This multicenter trial is the first-in-human assessment of two novel oral polio vaccines for poliovirus type 1 and type 3. It will be an 8-arm, randomized, observer-blind, controlled trial, with Sabin monovalent vaccines serving as the control for each type. One hundred and fifty to 230 healthy, adult participants will be recruited, 70-80 participants with an exclusive inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) prior vaccination history and 120-150 participants with an oral poliomyelitis vaccine (OPV)-containing prior vaccination history.

For Cohorts 2 and 4 only: previously received a primary polio immunization series containing OPV Exclusion Criteria: Have any condition (medical, psychiatric or behavioral) that, in the opinion of the investigator, would increase the participant's health risks in study participation or would increase the risk of not achieving the study's objectives (e.g., would compromise adherence to protocol requirements or interfere with planned safety and immunogenicity assessments) Receipt of polio vaccine within 12 months before the start of the study Having Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis or having had major surgery of the gastrointestinal tract involving significant loss or resection of the bowel A known allergy, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to any components of the study vaccines, including all macrolide and aminoglycoside antibiotics (e.g., erythromycin and kanamycin) Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficiency condition (human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] infection, or total serum immunoglobulin A (IgA) or immunoglobulin G (IgG) level below the testing laboratory's lower limit of normal [LLN]) Administration of any long-acting immune-modifying drugs (e.g., infliximab or rituximab) or the chronic administration (i.e., longer than 14 days) of immunosuppressant drugs (e.g., oral or systemic steroids) or other immune-modifying drugs within 6 months prior to the first vaccine dose or planned use during the study (inhaled and topical steroids are allowed whereas intraarticular and epidural injection/administration of steroids are not allowed) Will have household direct or close professional contact during the study with individuals expected to be immunosuppressed (due to underlying condition or treatments) or individuals who have not yet completed their primary infant polio immunization series (i.e., three doses) Will have household direct or close professional contact during the study with pregnant women Will have household direct or close professional (e.g., neonatal nurses) contact during the study with children less than 2 years of age or with individuals who are encopretic (i.e., infants/toddlers who are not yet toilet trained or other individuals, including adults, with fecal incontinence) Will have professional handling of food, catering, or food production activities during the study Reside in homes with septic tanks Acute illness or fever (body temperature measured orally ≥ 38°C or 100.4°F) at the time of study vaccine administration (once acute illness/fever is resolved, if appropriate, as per investigator assessment, participant may complete screening) Indications of drug abuse or excessive use of alcohol as deemed by the investigator to confound safety assessments or render the participant unable or unlikely to adhere to protocol requirements or provide accurate safety reports Participation in another investigational product (drug or vaccine) clinical trial within 30 days prior to entry in this study or receipt of any such investigational product other than the study vaccine within 30 days prior to the first administration of study vaccine, or planned use during the study period Administration of any vaccine (except seasonal inactivated influenza and COVID-19 vaccines which are prohibited for only 14 days prior to or following each study vaccination) other than the study vaccine or any intramuscular injection within 30 days prior to the first dose of study vaccine or planned administration within 30 days prior to or after any study vaccination. Receipt of transfusion of any blood product or application of immunoglobulins within the 12 weeks prior to the first administration of study vaccine or planned use during the study period Hepatitis B or C virus infection Any hematological# or chemistry** parameter that is out of range of normal†† and is considered clinically significant by the investigator #Complete blood count (CBC), includes hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, eosinophil count, and platelet count **Creatinine, alanine transaminase (ALT), total bilirubin ††Per the site clinical laboratory's reference ranges. All tests with out of range results that are regarded as clinically significant by the clinician must be repeated and determined to be not clinically significant before any participant can be enrolled. The following hematological or chemistry laboratory results will be considered exclusionary, irrespective of assessment of clinical significance: Hemoglobin (Male) < 12.5 g/dL Hemoglobin (Female) < 11.0 g/dL Neutrophil count < 1,000 cells/mm3 Eosinophil count > 650 cells/mm3 Platelet count < 125,000 cells/mm3 Creatinine > 1.4 mg/dL ALT > 1.1 X Upper limit of normal (ULN) †† ††Per the site clinical laboratory's reference ranges
