Evaluation of Safety, Immunogenicity and Efficacy of a Triple Immune Regimen in Adults Initiated on ART During Acute HIV-1

Recruiting now · Phase 1/Phase 2 · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: HIV-1-infection

In brief

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of therapeutic vaccination with chimpanzee adenovirus ChAdOx1- and poxvirus modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-vectored conserved mosaic T-cell vaccines in a sequential regimen with the toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist vesatolimod (VES) and two broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) compared to placebo, to induce HIV-1 control during analytic treatment interruption (ATI).
