Description

ALVAC-HIV candidate vaccines have induced HIV-specific CTL responses in more than half of recipients in some protocols. Depending on the HIV-1 gene products expressed by the particular ALVAC-HIV candidate vaccine, volunteers have generated anti-Envelope (vCP125, vCP205, and vCP300), anti-Gag (vCP205 and vCP300), and anti-Nef (vCP300) CTL activity. Although 3 to 4 immunizations with the different ALVAC-HIV experimental vaccines induce anti-HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies in a portion, often the majority, of volunteers, the geometric mean titers of these antibodies are modest, usually less than...

Eligibility criteria

  • Inclusion Criteria
  • Volunteers must have:
  • Negative ELISA for HIV within 8 weeks prior to immunization.
  • CD4 count of 400 cells/mm3 or higher.
  • Normal history and physical examination.
  • Viable EBV line prior to initial immunization. [AS PER AMENDMENT 4/30/99:
  • Negative anti-dsDNA antibodies (for volunteers receiving booster vaccine).]
  • Exclusion Criteria
  • Co-existing Condition:
  • Volunteers with the following conditions or symptoms are excluded:
  • Medical or psychiatric condition or occupational responsibilities that preclude compliance with the protocol.
  • Recent suicidal ideation or psychosis.
  • Active syphilis. NOTE:
  • If the serology is documented to be a false positive or due to a remote (greater than 6 months) treated infection, the volunteer is eligible.
  • Active tuberculosis. NOTE:
  • Volunteers who have a positive PPD and a normal chest x-ray showing no evidence of TB and who do not require INH therapy are eligible.
  • Positive for hepatitis C antibody or hepatitis B surface antigen.
  • Allergy to eggs, neomycin, or thimerosal. [AS PER AMENDMENT 4/30/99:
  • Hypersensitivity to bupivacaine or other amide-type anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine, mepivacaine) for volunteers receiving booster vaccine).]
  • Concurrent Medication:
  • Excluded:
  • Lithium or cimetidine.
  • Volunteers with the following prior conditions are excluded:
  • History of immunodeficiency, chronic illness, or autoimmune disease.
  • History of cancer unless there has been surgical excision with reasonable assurance of cure.
  • History of suicide attempts or past psychosis.
  • History of anaphylaxis or other serious adverse reactions to vaccines.
  • History of serious allergic reaction to any substance requiring hospitalization or emergent care (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome, bronchospasm, or hypotension).
  • [AS PER AMENDMENT 11/13/97:
  • History of cardiac disease or cardiac arrhythmias.]
  • Prior Medication:
  • Excluded:
  • Live attenuated vaccines within 60 days of study. NOTE:
  • Medically indicated subunit or killed vaccines (e.g., influenza, pneumococcal) are not exclusionary, but should be given at least 2 weeks away from HIV immunizations.
  • Experimental agents within 30 days prior to study.
  • Blood products or immunoglobulin in the past 6 months.
  • HIV-1 vaccines or placebo as part of a previous HIV vaccine trial.
  • Immunosuppressive medications.
  • Risk Behavior:
  • Excluded:
  • Volunteers with an identifiable higher-risk behavior for HIV infection (i.e., AVEG Risk Group C or D), including a history of injection drug use within 12 months prior to enrollment or higher-risk sexual behavior as defined by the AVEG.
