Phase 1 Study of rDEN2delta30-7169 for Dengue Virus Infection

This study is looking for healthy volunteers, aged 18 to 50, to understand how the body responds to dengue virus infection. Researchers will use a weakened form of the dengue virus, called rDEN2delta30-7169, to infect participants. This will help them learn more about how dengue viruses work in the body, especially in people who have or have not had dengue before. The main goals are to check the safety of rDEN2delta30-7169 and to see how the body's immune system reacts. They will measure side effects for up to 180 days and look at how much virus is in the blood and changes in protective antibodies for up to 28 days. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 200 participants.

Study design
This is a Phase 1 interventional human challenge trial. It will involve healthy adults who have never had dengue, or who have had specific types of dengue infections in the past.
What's involved
Participants will undergo a screening process, including a physical exam and blood tests. They will be infected with the rDEN2delta30-7169 virus.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The study will monitor for side effects for up to 180 days. Viral levels and antibody changes will be measured for up to 28 days.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Intrauterine device or equivalent.
Hormonal contraceptive (e.g., consistent, timely, and continuous use of contraceptive pill, patch, ring, implant, or injection that has reached full efficacy prior to challenge).
Condom, diaphragm, or cervical cap plus spermicide.
A stable, long-term monogamous relationship with a partner who does not pose any potential pregnancy risk, e.g., has undergone a vasectomy at least 6 months prior to administration of challenge strain or is of the same sex as the participant.
A hysterectomy and/or a bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or post-menopausal status defined as age \>=45 years and at least 1 year since last menstrual period.
  • The frequency and severity of AEs through day 28 and SAEs through day 180.Through Day 180

    Evaluate the safety of the challenge strain in all groups.

  • Fold difference between groups in peak viral RNAemia titers on any day from days 2 to 19.Through Day 19

    Evaluate viral replication by qRT-PCR and compare the peak replication among groups.

  • Fold change in DENV1-4 neutralizing antibody GMTs between days 0 and 28 within each group.Through Day 28

    Evaluate the immunogenicity of the challenge by examining the change in antibody titers in each group.
