Dose-Escalation Prime/Boost Therapeutic Vaccination Study Of 2 Chimp Adenoviral Vectors in Adults With Chronic HBV On Nucleos(t)Ide Therapy

Sponsor: Virion Therapeutics

Summary

This Phase 1b clinical study is a multi-center, open-label, dose escalation, prime only, and prime plus boost therapeutic vaccination study of 2 distinct chimpanzee adenoviral vectors (AdC6 and AdC7), containing parts of hepatitis B virus (HBV) core and polymerase antigens fused within glycoprotein D in a cohort of chronic hepatitis B (CHB)-infected adult participants who are currently receiving entecavir, tenofovir (tenofovir alafenamide fumarate or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate), or lamivudine, with documented HBV viral load suppression for at least 12 months. Approximately 24 participants will be enrolled in Group 1 and randomized to Cohort 1a or Cohort 1b. Those assigned to Cohort 1a will receive a low dose prime therapeutic vaccination of vector AdC7 on Day 1, followed by a booster vaccination on Day 91 using vector AdC6. Those assigned to Cohort 1b will receive a low dose prime therapeutic vaccination of vector AdC6 on Day 1, and will not receive a booster vaccination. Group 2 will then enroll approximately 24 participants randomized to Cohort 2a or Cohort 2b. Those assigned to Cohort 2a will receive a high dose prime therapeutic vaccination of vector AdC7 on Day 1, followed by a booster vaccination on Day 91 using vector AdC6. Those assigned to Cohort 2b will receive a high dose prime therapeutic vaccination of vector AdC6 on Day 1, and will not receive a booster vaccination. Group 3 will enroll approximately 8 participants randomized into Cohort 3a or Cohort 3b. Cohort 3a will receive the high dose prime VRON-0200 vaccination of vector AdC7 on Day 1, followed by doses of VIR-2218 plus VIR-3434 on Days 28, 56, 84, 112, 140 and 168, and then a booster using a high dose VRON-0200 vaccination of vector AdC6 on Day 196. Cohort 3b will receive the same high dose prime VRON-0200 vaccination of vector AdC7 followed by 6 doses of VIR-2218 plus VIR-3434 at the same timepoints as Cohort 3a, but will not receive the booster dose on Day 196. VRON-0200 vaccine doses will be administered by intramuscular (IM) injection. VIR-2218 and VIR-3434 will be administered subcutaneously. All study participants will be followed for a total of 1 year post-prime vaccination.
