Brief Summary

This is a FIH, open-label, dose escalation, phase I clinical trial to assess the safety and immunogenicity of the candidate ChAdOx1 Zika vaccine in healthy volunteers administered intramuscularly.

Detailed Description

Volunteers will be recruited and vaccinated at the Centre for Clinical Vaccinology and Tropical Medicine (CCVTM), Oxford. There will be 3 study groups and a total of 24 volunteers will be enrolled. Groups 1-3 will receive ChAdOx1 Zika alone. Staggered enrolment will apply for the first three volunteers within each group.

Exclusion Criteria

• Participation in another research study involving receipt of an investigational product in the 30 days preceding enrolment, or planned use during the study period
• Prior receipt of an investigational or licensed vaccine likely to impact on interpretation of the trial data (e.g. Adenovirus vectored vaccine, Zika virus vaccine, Dengue virus vaccine).
• Prior receipt of any vaccines administered ≤30 days before enrolment and/or planned receipt of a vaccine ≤30 days after enrolment EXCEPT for protein, RNA (or other non-adenovirus based) COVID-19 vaccinations which may be given within 14 days of the trial vaccine.
• Receipt of recombinant simian adenoviral vaccine prior to enrolment.
• Planned receipt of another adenoviral vectored vaccine (e.g. Oxford/Astrazeneca or Janssen COVID-19 vaccines) within 90 days after the vaccination with the ChAdOx1 Zika
• Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the planned administration of the vaccine candidate
• Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient state, including HIV infection; asplenia; recurrent, severe infections and chronic (more than 14 days) immunosuppressant medication within the past 6 months (inhaled and topical steroids are allowed)
• History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine. Any history of anaphylaxis in relation to vaccination.
• History of autoimmune disease.
• Any history of hereditary angioedema, acquired angioedema, or idiopathic angioedema.
• Pregnancy, lactation or willingness/intention to become pregnant during the study
• History of cancer (except basal cell carcinoma of the skin and cervical carcinoma in situ)
• History of serious psychiatric condition likely to affect participation in the study
• Bleeding disorder (e.g. factor deficiency, coagulopathy or platelet disorder), or prior history of significant bleeding or bruising following IM injections or venepuncture
• Any other serious chronic illness requiring hospital specialist supervision
• Suspected or known current alcohol abuse as defined by an alcohol intake of greater than 42 units every week
• Suspected or known injecting drug abuse in the 5 years preceding enrolment
• Seropositive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)
• Seropositive for hepatitis C virus (antibodies to HCV)
• Any clinically significant abnormal finding on screening biochemistry or haematology blood tests or urinalysis
• Has history of chronic or acute severe neurologic condition.

• Any other significant disease, disorder or finding which may significantly increase the risk to the volunteer because of participation in the study, affect the ability of the volunteer to participate in the study or impair interpretation of the study data
• Inability of the study team to contact the volunteer's GP to confirm medical history and safety to participate or access this medical history electronically.
• Seropositivity or cross-reactivity to Zika virus or Dengue virus (serology will be requested at the discretion of the investigator).
