Abstract

Methods 60 subjects (18–50 yrs) were randomized to 6 schedules. Group 1 (n = 30) received 3 DNA prime vaccinations (Wks 0,4,8) and Group 2 (n = 30) received a recombinant adenoviral vector (rAd5) prime vaccination (Wk 0). Both groups received rAd5 booster at Wk 24. Subjects were equally randomized to receive prime injections by IM, SC and ID routes. DNA dosage was 4 mg for IM and SC; 0.4 mg for ID injections. rAd5 dosage was 1010 PU by all routes. Half of the subjects in each group had pre-existing Ad5 neutralizing antibody.

  • Safety and tolerability of the VRC/NIAID DNA and rAd5 HIV-1 vaccines administered by intramuscular (IM), subcutaneous (SC), and intradermal (ID) routes of administration were evaluated in VRC 011

  • Local reactions for ID and SC injections had different characteristics compared to the IM injections, which have typically been used for these vaccines in prior phase I/II studies
