Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study, the novel vaccine candidate, MVA.HIVconsv, will be tested for safety, tolerability and immunogenicity in HIV-1-seropositive subjects receiving effective antiretroviral therapy.

MVA.HIVconsv will be tested as a single vaccine modality, as a prelude to testing in a heterologous viral vector boost regimen which will include a replication-defective simian adenovirus expressing the same immunogen.

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Male or female, aged 18-60 years

* Willing and able to give written informed consent for participation in the study
* Treated continuously with a combination of 3 or more antiretroviral agents for the preceding 12 months
* Willing and able to adhere to an effective ART regimen for the duration of the study (switching from current regimen is allowed if for reasons of tolerability or toxicity)
* CD4 cell count \> 350 cells/μl at screening and at the preceding clinic visit
* Plasma viral load \< 50 copies / ml at screening and at the preceding clinic visit
* No new AIDS-defining diagnosis or progression of HIV-related disease in the preceding 6/12 months
* Haematological and biochemical laboratory parameters as follows:

* Haemoglobin \> 10g/dl
* Platelets \> 100,000/μl
* ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN
* Creatinine ≤ 1.3 x ULN
* Serology: negative for hepatitis B surface antigen OR HbsAg positive with HBV DNA \< 1000 copies/ml; negative for hepatitis C antibodies OR confirmed clearance of HCV infection (spontaneous or following treatment); negative syphilis serology or documented adequate treatment of syphilis if positive EIA IgG or TPHA
* Available for follow up for duration of study (screening + 38 weeks) and willing to comply with the protocol requirements
* Women of child-bearing age must not be pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breast-feeding. Sexually active women must be willing to use an approved method of contraception from screening until 4 months after the third immunisation. Sexually active men in heterosexual relationships must be willing to use an approved method of contraception with their partners from screening until 4 months after the third immunisation.

Exclusion Criteria

* Confirmed HIV-2 seropositive
* Positive pregnancy test
* Participation in another clinical trial within 12 weeks of study entry
* History of autoimmune disease other than HIV-related auto-immune disease which has resolved with ART
* History or clinical manifestations of any physical or psychiatric disorder which could impair the subject's ability to complete the study
* History of anaphylaxis or severe adverse reaction to vaccines
* History of alcohol or drug dependency which could, in the opinion of the investigators, impair the subject's ability to complete the study
* Previous immunisation with a recombinant MVA vaccine
* Immunisation with any experimental immunogens within 6 months of study entry
* Receipt of blood products or immunoglobulins within 6 months of study entry
* Treatment for cancer or lymphoproliferative disease within 1 year of study entry
* Receipt of vaccines other than Hepatitis B vaccine within 2 weeks of study entry or planned receipt within 2 weeks of vaccination
* Any other prior therapy which, in the opinion of the investigators, would make the individual unsuitable for the study or influence the results of the study
* Current or recent use (within last 3 months) of interferon or systemic corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive agents
