Safety and Tolerability of AAV8 Delivery of a Broadly Neutralizing Antibody in Adults Living With HIV: a Phase 1, Dose-escalation Trial

Lead Sponsor:

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)

Conditions:

HIV-1 Infected Adults With Controlled Viremia

Eligibility:

All Genders

18-65 years

Phase:

PHASE1

Brief Summary

Background: The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) attacks the immune system. Scientists have created a gene that could be transferred to the cells of people with HIV. The gene should tell the cells ...

Detailed Description

Design: This is a Phase I study of the safety and tolerability of AAV8-VRC07 (VRC-HIVAAV070-00-GT) expressing VRC07 human monoclonal antibody with broad HIV-1 neutralizing activity in HIV-1 infected a...

  • Based on history and examination, must be in general good health with no evidence of clinically significant lab abnormalities and without additional clinically significant medical conditions as per exclusion criteria.
  • Willing to maintain or establish a relationship with a primary health care provider for medical management of HIV infection while participating in the study.
  • Willing to have blood samples collected, stored indefinitely, and used for research purposes.
  • Able to provide proof of identity to the satisfaction of the study clinician completing the enrollment process.
  • Laboratory tests assessing individual's health will be conducted within 84 days prior to enrollment and values must meet the following criteria:
  • White blood cell count (WBC) 2,500-12,000/mm\^3;
  • WBC differential either within institutional normal range or accompanied by approval of the Principal Investigator (PI) or designee;
  • Platelets = 125,000-400,000/mm\^3;
  • Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 10.0 gm/dL;
  • Creatinine less than or equal to 1.25 x upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) less than or equal to 1.1 x ULN;

  • Viral Load (VL) less than or equal to 50 copies/mL and a CD4 count greater than or equal to 300/mcL (microliter).
  • Male-Specific Criteria:
  • Males must agree to use condoms for all sexual activity of any reproductive potential for 52 weeks after receiving the study product.
  • Female-Specific Criteria:
  • If a woman is sexually active with a male partner and has no history of hysterectomy, tubal ligation or menopause, she must agree to use either a prescription birth control method or a barrier birth control method from the time of study enrollment through study Week 52, or to be monogamous with a partner who has had a vasectomy.
  • Negative beta-HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) pregnancy test (urine or serum) on day of enrollment for women presumed to be of reproductive potential.
  • EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • A volunteer would have been excluded if one or more of the following conditions applied:
  • Previous receipt of monoclonal antibody whether licensed or investigational.
  • Previous receipt of gene therapy product.
  • Ongoing AIDS-related opportunistic infection (including oral thrush).
  • Active injection drug use or active drug or alcohol use or dependence that, in the opinion of the site investigator, would interfere with adherence to study requirements.
  • A titer of pre-existing antibodies to AAV8 capsid is greater than 1:90.
  • Weight \> 115 kg for Group 3 participants only.
  • History of a severe allergic reaction with generalized urticaria, angioedema or anaphylaxis within the 2 years prior to enrollment that has a reasonable risk of recurrence.
  • Bleeding disorder diagnosed by a doctor (e.g. factor deficiency, coagulopathy, or platelet disorder requiring special precautions) or significant bruising or bleeding difficulties with IM injections or blood draws.
  • Active liver disease such as chronic hepatitis.
  • Hypertension that is not well controlled by medication.
  • Woman who is breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study participation.
  • Receipt of any investigational study agent within 28 days prior to enrollment.
  • Current infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
  • Any other chronic or clinically significant medical condition that in the opinion of investigator would jeopardize the safety or rights of the volunteer, including, but not limited to: diabetes mellitus type I; OR clinically significant forms of asthma, autoimmune disease, psychiatric disorders, heart disease, or cancer.
