Open Study of the Duration of Immunity After Vaccination With GamEvac-Combi

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the post-vaccination immune status at different time points in subjects immunized against Ebola Virus Disease; to select an optimal regimen of product administration; and, to assess safety of medicinal product GamEvac-Combi - Combined Vector-Based Vaccine against Ebola Virus Disease, 0.5 ml+0.5 ml/dose, following the immunization with a half (0.25 ml+0.25 ml/dose) and full (0.5 ml+0.5 ml/dose) therapeutic doses.

About this study

This clinical trial is designed as an open study to evaluate the duration of immunity persistence following the administration of medicinal product GamEvac-Combi - Combined Vector-Based Vaccine against Ebola Virus Disease.

It is an observational study; no interventions are planned in the course of common clinical practices during the study period; investigated therapeutic agents or special methods of examination will not be used in the study, except the blood sampling procedure specified in this Protocol. Only those patients who have signed the information consent form for participation in the study and have been informed by physician on the objectives and methods of this project will be involved in the study.

The study consists of a single stage which is designed as a follow-up period to observe volunteers vaccinated in the course of evaluation of safety, reactogenic properties and immunogenicity of product GamEvac-Combi - Combined Vector-Based Vaccine against Ebola Virus Disease in the dosages of 0.25 ml and 0.5 ml, during the study under Protocol 01-COMBI-2015 in October-November 2015. Vaccination will not be made within the present study. Screening of volunteers is not required: the study will involve as many of the volunteers as possible (but not more than 60 subjects) who had been immunized earlier with GamEvac-Combi - Combined Vector-Based Vaccine against Ebola Virus Disease, provided that they have no medical contraindications for blood sampling.

Study Schedule Visit 1 (outpatient): the goal of this visit is to assess whether a patient meets the inclusion/exclusion criteria. All procedures should be carried out upon receipt of the informed consent form signed by patient. The visit will be held 12 months after the vaccination.

Visit 2 (outpatient): 18 months after the vaccination. Visit 3 (outpatient): 24 months after the vaccination. The duration of immunity persistence following product administration will be assessed in healthy volunteers based on the measurements of specific antibody titers.

  • by ELISA method 12, 18 and 24 months after the vaccination vs. baseline values;
  • in virus neutralization reaction 12 months after the vaccination vs. baseline values.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Males and females aged 18-56 who had been earlier vaccinated with medicinal product GamEvac-Combi in the dosages of 0.25 ml and 0.5 ml, during the study under Protocol 01-COMBI-2015 in October-November 2015.
  • Written informed consent signed by patients prior to their involvement in the study

Exclusion criteria

  • Absence of the earlier vaccination with medicinal product GamEvac-Combi in the dosages of 0.25 ml and 0.5 ml, during the study under Protocol 01-COMBI-2015 in October-November 2015.
  • Presence of a concomitant illness which could preclude obtaining a venous blood sample or affect the study process: (critical patient's condition, seizures, agitated state, blood loss and shocks of different origin).

Treatment and study plan

blood sampling collection

Procedure

It is an observational study; no interventions are planned in the course of common clinical practices during the study period; investigated therapeutic agents or special methods of examination will not be used in the study, except the blood sampling procedure and clinical observation specified in this Protocol.

Primary outcomes

  1. duration of immunity using ELISA method

    Time frame: 12 months after the vaccination

    To evaluate the duration of immunity persistence following the product administration in healthy volunteers by measuring the specific antibody titer:

    • using ELISA method 12 months after the vaccination vs. baseline values
  2. duration of immunity using ELISA method

    Time frame: 18 months after the vaccination

    To evaluate the duration of immunity persistence following the product administration in healthy volunteers by measuring the specific antibody titer

  3. duration of immunity using ELISA method

    Time frame: 24 months after the vaccination

    To evaluate the duration of immunity persistence following the product administration in healthy volunteers by measuring the specific antibody titer:

    • using ELISA method 24 months after the vaccination vs. baseline values

Secondary outcomes

  1. duration of immunity in virus neutralization reaction

    Time frame: 12 months after the vaccination vs. baseline values

    To evaluate the duration of immunity persistence following the product administration in healthy volunteers by measuring the specific antibody titer

  2. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Time frame: 12, 18 and 24 months after the vaccination

    Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events. To assess product safety by collecting information on adverse events, development of infectious and non-infectious diseases, and on cases where vaccinated volunteers were seeking for medical care during the follow-up period
