To Investigate Safety, Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of VIR-1388 Compared With Placebo in Participants Without HIV

Phase 1
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
HIV I Infection
Interventions
Biological: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT05854381
Lead Sponsor
Vir Biotechnology, Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of VIR 1388 in adults in good health without HIV.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study in adults aged 18 to 55 years in overall good health and without HIV. Participants will be enrolled concurrently into 1 of 3 dose levels of VIR-1388 or placebo. The overall study design includes 2 study parts, Part A and Part B. Part A will be a lead-in phase enrolling a limited number of HCMV seropositive persons of non-childbearing potential (PONCBP) with a frequent safety monitoring schedule. Part B will expand enrollment into a broader population of HCMV-seropositive participants, including persons of childbearing potential required to use 2 forms of contraception and maintains a similar overall safety monitoring schedule as Part A . There is an optional long-term follow-up study that would lengthen study participation for up to 3 years post-first dose.
