ClinConnect Summary

ORIGINAL (replaced): A gp160 vaccine derived from the MN strain, the most prevalent strain of HIV-1 in the United States, has been developed. A previous study showed that a combination vaccine strategy, consisting of priming with HIVAC-1e followed by boosting with a gp160 subunit vaccine, resulted in humoral and cellular immune responses of greater and longer duration than either vaccine alone. Thus, a live vector/subunit boost approach using the MN rgp160 vaccine merits investigation.

AMENDED 8/94: Volunteers are randomized to receive 800 mcg MN rgp160 vaccine (Immuno-AG) or adjuvant cont...

Eligibility criteria

  • Inclusion Criteria
  • Subjects must have:
  • Normal history and physical exam.
  • Negative test for HIV by ELISA within 6 weeks prior to immunization.
  • Negative test for HIV by Western blot.
  • CD4 count \>= 400 cells/mm3.
  • No history of smallpox vaccination.
  • Normal urine dipstick with esterase and nitrate.
  • No history of immunodeficiency, chronic illness, autoimmune disease, or use of immunosuppresssive medications.
  • Exclusion Criteria
  • Co-existing Condition:
  • Subjects with the following conditions are excluded:
  • Positive for hepatitis B surface antigen.
  • Medical or psychiatric condition or occupational responsibilities that preclude compliance.
  • Active syphilis (NOTE: If serology is documented to be a false positive or due to a remote (\> 6 months) infection, subject is eligible).
  • Active tuberculosis (NOTE: Subjects with a positive PPD and normal x-ray showing no evidence of TB and who do not require INH therapy are eligible).
  • Eczema.
  • Household contact with persons meeting any of the following criteria:
  • pregnancy, \< 12 months of age, eczema, or immunodeficiency disease or use of immunosuppressive medications.
  • Subjects with the following prior conditions are excluded:
  • History of anaphylaxis or other serious adverse reactions to vaccines.
  • Eczema within the past year.
  • PER 8/94 AMENDMENT: History of cancer unless surgically excised with reasonable assurance of cure.
  • PER 8/94 AMENDMENT: History of serious allergic reaction requiring hospitalization or emergent medical care.
  • Prior Medication:
  • Excluded:
  • Prior HIV vaccines.
  • Live attenuated vaccines within the past 60 days. NOTE: Medically indicated subunit or killed vaccines (e.g., influenza, pneumococcal) do not exclude but should be administered at least 2 weeks prior to HIV immunizations.
  • Experimental agents within the past 30 days.
  • Prior Treatment:
  • Excluded:
  • Blood products or immunoglobulin within the past 6 months.
  • Higher risk behavior for HIV infection as determined by screening questionnaire, including:
  • History of injection drug use within 12 months prior to study entry.
  • Higher or intermediate risk sexual behavior.
