A phase I study to determine the safety and immunogenicity of the candidate Rift Valley Fever Virus (RVFV) vaccine ChAdOx1 RVF among healthy adult volunteers in Uganda.
REFNo: HS793ES
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety profile of the candidate vaccine ChAdOx1 RVF in healthy adult volunteers in Uganda. This will be assessed through comparing the frequency of solicited, unsolicited and serious adverse events and changes from the baseline of laboratory safety measures between participants who will receive the active vaccine and those who will receive the placebo.
The Secondary objective is to assess the immunogenicity of the candidate vaccine ChAdOx1 RVF in healthy adult volunteers in Uganda. This will be assessed through quantification of antibodies to the GnGc proteins using ELISA, RVFV neutralising antibody titres and Ex vivo ELISpot and flow cytometry responses to GnGc.
