What is being measured

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

  1. Safety - reactogenicity

    Proportion of volunteers with Grade 2 or greater reactogenicity (i.e., solicited adverse events) from Day 0 through Day 7 after each investigational product (IP) administration

    Measured: 7 Days

  2. Safety - IP related unsolicited adverse events

    Proportion of volunteers with IP-related unsolicited adverse events (AEs), including safety laboratory (biochemical, hematological) parameters, from the day of each IP administration up to 28 days post each IP administration

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Safety - Grade 2 or greater unsolicited AEs

    Proportion of volunteers with Grade 2 or greater unsolicited adverse events (AEs), including safety laboratory (biochemical, hematological) parameters, from the day of each IP administration up to 28 days post each IP administration

    Measured: 28 days

  4. Safety - IP related SAEs

    Proportion of volunteers with IP-related serious adverse events (SAEs) throughout the study period

    Measured: 18 Months

  5. Safety - pIMDs

    Proportion of volunteers in each group with potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs) from the day of first IP administration throughout the study period

    Measured: 18 Months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Immunogenicity - Frequency Ab responses

    Frequency of binding antibody responses to GT1.1 trimer after the first, second, and/or third IP administrations compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 Months

  2. Immunogenicity - Magnitude Ab responses

    Magnitude of binding antibody responses to GT1.1 trimer after the first, second, and/or third IP administrations compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BG505 SOSIP GT1.1 gp140 Vaccine, Adjuvanted in people with HIV Infections, run by International AIDS Vaccine Initiative at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 11 inclusion and 40 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States, Netherlands. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Safety - reactogenicity (time frame: 7 Days). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04224701, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Dec 2024.
