A Phase I Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety of a Multiclade Recombinant Adenoviral Vector HIV-1 Vaccine Administered to Healthy, HIV-1 Uninfected, Adult Participants Who Received DNA Plasmid Vaccine or Placebo in the HVTN 052 Clinical Trial


The worldwide HIV epidemic highlights the importance of developing an affordable, globally
successful vaccine for HIV prevention. The VRC-HIVADV014-00-VP adenoviral vector vaccine
used in this study was developed to stimulate strong virus-specific CD8 cytotoxic
T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses thought to be crucial in an effective preventive HIV vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and immunogenicity of a
VRC-HIVADV014-00-VP vaccine boost given to healthy, HIV uninfected individuals who
participated in HVTN 052, which evaluated the VRC-HIVDNA009-00-VP DNA plasmid vaccine. In
that study, participants received either 3 injections of vaccine, 2 injections of vaccine
and 1 injection of placebo, or 3 injections of placebo over a 2-month period.

This study will last one year. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive vaccine
boost or placebo by intramuscular injection. The injections will be given 6 to 9 months
after each participant's first HVTN 052 study injection, preferably as close to 6 months
after the first HVTN 052 injection as possible. After a screening visit, study visits will
occur at enrollment (when the injection will be given), at Week 2, and at Months 1, 3, 6,
and 12. Blood collection, physical exam, and medication assessment will occur at every study
visit; urine collection will occur at selected visits.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Previously enrolled in and have completed all 3 study vaccine injections for HVTN 052

- Understanding of vaccination procedure

- Good general health

- HIV uninfected

- Hepatitis B surface antigen negative

anti-HCV is positive

- Willing to use acceptable forms of contraception

Exclusion Criteria:

- Immunosuppressive medications within 168 days prior to study

- Blood products within 120 days prior to study

- Immunoglobulin within 60 days prior to study

- Live attenuated vaccines within 30 days prior to study

- Investigational research agents within 30 days prior to study

- Medically indicated subunit or killed vaccines within 14 days prior to study

- Unstable asthma (e.g., daily symptoms; use of oral or orally inhaled corticosteroids
or other treatments; emergent care, urgent care, hospitalization, or intubation
during the past 2 years)

- Diabetes mellitus. A participant with past gestational diabetes is not excluded.

- Thyroid disease, including removal of thyroid and diagnoses requiring medication. A
participant not requiring thyroid medication during the last year is not excluded.

- Serious angioedema. A participant who has had an episode of angioedema over 3 years
prior to the study, and has not required medications for at least 2 years, is not
excluded.

- Uncontrolled hypertension
