Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Ebola-specific Antibody Titers
Day 29, Day 726

Antibody titers are examined by direct comparison of antibody titers in the blood. Serum-binding Ebola-specific antibody titers following rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP vaccination will be measured by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

ArmTypeDescription
Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for EbolaEXPERIMENTALHealthy adults who are at no risk for exposure to Ebola Virus and are not prior recipients of an Ebola vaccine receive a single dose of recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for Ebola (rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP).
Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for Ebola and Deuterium Labeled Water for 14 DaysEXPERIMENTALHealthy adults who are at no risk for exposure to Ebola Virus and are not prior recipients of an Ebola vaccine receive a single dose of recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for Ebola (rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP) plus deuterium labeled water three times daily for 14 days from days 1-15.
Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for Ebola and Deuterium Labeled Water for 28 DaysEXPERIMENTALHealthy adults who are at no risk for exposure to Ebola Virus and are not prior recipients of an Ebola vaccine receive a single dose of recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for Ebola (rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP) plus deuterium labeled water three times daily for 28 days from days 57-85.

Interventions

NameTypeDescription
Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Vaccine for Ebola (rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP)BIOLOGICALThe study vaccine is an FDA-approved recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (rVSV) expressing the envelope glycoprotein of Ebola virus Zaire (rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP). The dose of rVSV∆G-ZEBOV-GP vaccine has been chosen for this study as per package insert recommendations and based on clinical data. Participants receive 1.0 milliliter (mL) of the study vaccine administered intramuscularly in the deltoid muscle of the non-dominant arm.
Deuterium Labeled WaterOTHERAn Emory Investigational Drug Service pharmacist will prepare sterile 50 ml aliquots of D2O with a tamper seal and stored at room temperature. Participants will be asked to drink a pre-measured volume of water three times a day and on days according to their assigned group schedule.
