Description

Cell-mediated immune responses generated after DNA delivered by either Biojector or Electroporation and boosted with a heterologous insert recombinant poxvirus September 13, 2011 Jeffrey R. Currier, C PhD Military HIV R Milit Research hP Program Division of Retrovirology, WRAIR

Background • RV262: Phase I study of the safety and immunogenicity of g) administered by y either PENNVAX™-G DNA ((Env and Gag) Biojector® 2000 or by CELLECTRA® Intramuscular Electroporation device followed by administration of MVACMDR (HIV-1 (HIV 1 CM235 env/CM240 en /CM240 gag/pol boost in healthy, health HIV uninfected adults • Part A: A Open-Label Open Label safet safety study st d conducted cond cted at the MHRP in Rockville, MD in 12 healthy, HIV uninfected adults • Part B: B Randomized Randomi ed placebo placebo-controlled controlled st study d opening in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda (Oct’ 2011) with an n=80, HIV uninfected adults

PENNVAX™-G DNA (Prime) • Consists of 4 DNA plasmids: 

3 plasmids each e expressing pressing an HIV Env En consensus consens s modified gp140 proteins for subtypes A, C and D respectively



1 plasmid encoding a Gag consensus consens s protein deri derived ed from subtypes A, B, C and D

• Administered in 4 mg doses, doses 1 ml volume (days 0 0, 28) 28): 

2mg of the Gag expressing plasmid



0.7 mg of each Env expressing plasmid

• Two delivery y methods using g either: 

BIOJECTOR® device: needle-free injection intra-muscularly



CELLECTRA® device: de ice in vivo i o intra-muscular intra m sc lar electroporation

MVA-CMDR (Boost) • Live, non-replicating, double recombinant, MVA vector

RV262 Preliminary Safety – Part A • First-in-man safety evaluation of PENNVAX™-G:  Consensus Env A, C, D, and CG4 plasmids

• Testing in vivo electroporation versus Biojector for DNA delivery • Total n=13 subjects j enrolled, 2 studyy unrelated withdrawals • No related SAEs, no pregnancies, no HIV infections • To date, DNA prime and boosting with MVA has been well tolerated

RV262 Cellular Immunogenicity (CMI) OBJECTIVES • Compare the relative immunogenicity of electroporation versus Biojector delivered DNA followed by an MVA boost • Use a standard IFN- Elispot assay and prime/boost matched peptides y using g flow cytometry y y for function and p phenotype yp ((14 color,, • Real-time analysis 16 parameter assay)  Functions: IFN-, , IL-2,, MIP-1, , TNF-,, and CD107  Phenotyping: Naïve, Central memory, Effector memory, Effector cells  ICS performed only with boost (MVA-CMDR insert) matched peptides • PBMC were tested Pre-vaccination,, 2 weeks post p 2x DNA prime p and 2 weeks posts each MVA boost

Point Prevalence for T Cell Responses (ICS)

• Positive response >0.05% of all antigen-specific T cells (and 3x BG) • Functional assessment has the caveat of boost (MVA) matched peptides

Preliminary Conclusions • Few responses detected post-DNA using either MVA-matched peptides (ICS) or DNA-matched peptides (Elispot) • After the 1st MVA boost:  11/11 subjects and 5/11 subjects respectively have Env-specific CD4 and d CD8 T cellll responses iin th the 0.05 0 05 – 0.57% 0 57% range  Gag responses seen in 6/11 and 2/11 subjects for CD4 and CD8 T cells ll respectively ti l after ft th the 1st MVA vaccination i ti • CD8 responses are predominantly EM after the MVA boosts • CD4 responses are a balance of EM and CM (2:1) after the MVA boosts • Elispot Eli t responses iin di directt agreementt with ith th the ICS d data t • Diminution of response rate and magnitude after 2nd MVA vaccination
