VacICoP: Chimpanzee Adenovirus Type 3-Vectored Marburg Glycoprotein (GP)-Expressing Vaccine
(ChAd3-MARV)-Induced Correlates of Protection
REFNo: HS5469ES
This study aims to identify the immune correlates of protection (ICoPs) against Marburg virus disease (MVD) through comprehensive analyses of humoral and cellular responses in both vaccinated and infected individuals. ICoPs will be identified by studying human and non-human
primates (NHPs) that have either survived infection, succumbed to it, or been successfully immunised. The research aims to expedite regulatory approval and licensure by identifying the most effective and durable ICoPs against MVD.
Key objectives and deliverables include:
1. Identifying the MVD ICoPs
2. Detailed humoral and cellular immune profiles distinguishing protective from nonprotective anti-MARV immunity
3. Reference reagents and scalable high-throughput screening assays
4. Predictive statistical models for forecasting vaccination effectiveness
5. Integrated clinical, immunological, and demographic datasets
6. Regulatory guidance for new vaccines approval
7. Global collaborative data exchange framework

Stakeholder perceptions and ethical considerations in gene therapy clinical trials for sickle cell disease in Uganda
REFNo: SS3570ES
Aim 1: To determine stakeholder perceptions of somatic gene therapy for SCD. We shall engage patient support and advocacy groups to ascertain knowledge gaps, expectations, and preferences regarding gene therapy. This will facilitate patient education and smooth implementation of research and development of affordable and accessible gene therapy in LMICs.
Aim 2: To examine the ethical, legal, and social considerations in somatic gene therapy clinical trials for SCD in a resource-limited setting. We shall use deliberative focus group discussions and key informant interviews to explore the ethical and social considerations in somatic gene therapy research in low-resource settings.
