Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
\- Ebola virus causes an infection known as Ebola virus disease (EVD). This it is generally a severe disease which can also lead to death. The 2014 outbreak of EVD in West Africa is the largest ever. Researchers want to develop a vaccine to prevent Ebola infection. It is impossible for someone to get an Ebola infection from this vaccine.
Objectives:
\- To see if an Ebola vaccine is safe and to study immune responses to it.
Eligibility:
\- Healthy adults ages 18-65.
Design:
* Participants will be screened through a separate protocol.
* Participants will receive the vaccine injection by needle and syringe into an upper arm muscle. - Participants will stay at the clinic for 3 hours after the injection.
* About 2 days later, participants must speak with clinic staff about how they are doing.
* Every day for 7 days after the injection, participants will record their temperature and symptoms and look at the injection site. They will get a thermometer and a ruler to measure any redness or swelling. They will report any side effects.
* In the first 2 months in the study, participants will have at least 6 clinic visits and 1 phone call. They will have at least 3 other visits over the next 9 months.
* At each visit, participants will be checked for health changes or problems since their last visit. They will be asked how they feel and if they have taken any medicine. Blood will be drawn at most visits. Urine samples may be collected.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Product Description: VRC-EBOADC069-00-VP (cAd3-EBO) is composed of two recombinant cAd3 vectors in a 1:1 ratio that express Ebola WT GPs from Zaire and Sudan strains. It is formulated at 2 times 10(11) PU/mL.
VRC-EBOADC076-00-VP (cAd3-EBOZ) is composed of a cAd3 vector that expresses Ebola WT GP from the Zaire strain. It is formulated at 1 times 10(11) PU/mL.
VRC-DILADC065-00-VP (diluent) is the formulation buffer used for vaccine production and will be used when needed to prepare the correct dosage of cAd3-EBO and cAd3-EBOZ.
Subjects: Part 1: Healthy adult volunteers, 18 to 50 years old;
Part 2: Healthy adult volunteers, 18 to 65 years old.
Study Plan: Part 1: 20 subjects will be enrolled, with 10 in each of the two dosage groups for cAd3-EBO. The dose escalation plan includes daily review of any new safety data by a study clinician, weekly review of safety data by the protocol team and a staged enrollment plan with required interim safety reviews before proceeding to the next step. The study plan includes no more than one enrollment per day for the first 3 vaccinated subjects in each group. After at least 3 days of follow-up, an interim safety review will occur before enrollment of additional subjects into the group. When there are at least 2 weeks of follow-up safety data for the first 3 vaccinated subjects in Group 1, an interim safety review will occur before proceeding to the next dose level.
Part 2: About 130 subjects will be enrolled as shown in the Schema table.
Group 3 is open only to subjects who received Ebola DNA WT vaccine in protocol VRC 206 to receive cAd3-EBO as a booster vaccine at the 2 times 10(11) PU dose.
Group 4 is for randomization of subjects to two dosage groups of cAd3-EBOZ.
Group 5 is for further evaluation of the cAd3-EBO vaccine at the 2 times 10(11) PU dose.
Study Duration: Subjects will be evaluated by 9 clinic visits over 48 weeks.
