About this study

This cohort study should provide an exhaustive overview on long-term safety of various preventive HIV-vaccines administered in phase I and II clinical trials to healthy volunteers of the ANRS network.

Read the detailed description

Since 1992, 16 phase I and II clinical trials have been performed by the French National Agency for Research on AIDS and Viral Hepatitis (ANRS) evaluating the safety of several HIV-1 vaccine candidates and their capacity to induce immune responses. The ANRS program has evaluated a recombinant HIV-1 envelope protein Rgp-160, canarypox ALVAC vectors, and mixtures of lipopeptides whose sequences represent CTL-epitopes of HIV-1 Gag, Pol and Nef proteins. Most of them have been administered intramuscularly but recently, mucosal immunization and intradermal route were used. Previously compiled in a published meta-analysis, safety studies were restricted to the duration of the trials.

ANRS establishes a cohort study in order to describe the long-term safety of preventive HIV-vaccines administered in phase I and II clinical trials to healthy volunteers of the "ANRS volunteer-network" in France and to gather clinical and biological data in a database and blood specimen collection which could be analysed in case of a long-term safety issue in ANRS vaccine trials or if pertinent, in other HIV vaccine trials ANRS COV1-COHVAC is a prospective, multicentric cohort study composed of participants in preventive HIV-vaccines phase I and II trials. All ANRS volunteers who ever received one dose of a candidate vaccine are eligible and those who are going to complete their participation to a clinical trial during the cohort study time.

The ANRS COV1-COHVAC project relies on a long-term follow-up of the cohort (at least 7 years after the end of the vaccine trial), that includes the retrospective and prospective collection of medical and biological data [severe health events (grade 3-4), as well as neurological, ophtalmological, and immunological events (any grade), starting from the first injection of a candidate vaccine, are recorded], blood specimen collections and psycho-behavioral evaluations (self-questionnaires and interviews) in order to collect data about consequences of participation and experience of possible HIV vaccine-induced seropositivity in such trials.

Of the ANRS "volunteer-network", 206 participants have been involved in the early trials and are actually eligible to participate in this cohort. Altogether with the more recent studies completed or in progress, the cohort will comprise at least 400 individuals in 2009.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Description of severe health events (grade 3-4), as well as neurological, ophtalmological, and immunological events (any grade), starting from the first injection of a HIV candidate vaccine.

    Measured: once a year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluation of HIV serologic status by two ELISA tests and Western blot test ( only if ELISA is positive).

    Measured: once a year

  2. Evaluation of psycho-behavioral consequences, associated to participation in a HIV preventive trial, on entourage, familial, professional and social relations, with a self-questionnaire and an interview with a clinician.

    Measured: once a year

  3. Incidence of HIV infection (frequency, description of contamination).

    Measured: once a year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV Infection and HIV Seronegativity, run by ANRS, Emerging Infectious Diseases at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: stopped prematurely due to the absence of safety signal). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Description of severe health events (grade 3-4), as well as neurological, ophtalmological, and immunological events (any grade), starting from the first injection of a HIV candidate vaccine. (time frame: once a year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2017.
