Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of a heterologous prime-boost regimen using Ad26.ZEBOV as prime and MVA-BN-Filo as boost administered at different doses at a 56-day interval versus the same regimen with the recently released batches of Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo in terms of humoral immune response against the Ebola virus (EBOV) GP (glycoprotein) as measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at 21 days post boost.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study to evaluate safety and immunogenicity of Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo at different dose levels, administered to healthy adults participants. The study consists of a Screening period of up to 6 weeks, vaccinations on Day 1 and Day 57, and a post-vaccination phase until the 6 months post-boost visit (Day 237). The participants will be randomized at baseline (on Day 1) in a 2:2:2:1 ratio to Groups 1, 2, 3 and 4. Safety will be monitored throughout the study.
