Cambridge Confidence in Concepts: translating pathophysiological insights for patient benefit

Lead Research Organisation: University of Cambridge
Department Name: UNLISTED

Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Technical Summary

The Confidence in Concept scheme is a key part of MRC’s translational research strategy and provides annual awards to institutions, to be used flexibly to support the earliest stages of multiple translational research projects. The award can be used by the institution to support a number of preliminary-stage translational projects. The projects supported should aim to provide sufficient preliminary data to establish the viability of an approach –– before seeking more substantive funding.  It is intended to accelerate the transition from discovery research to translational development projects by supporting preliminary work or feasibility studies to establish the viability of an approach.

PI Contribution - The RIVER trial (collaborations with GSK and MSD). Additional funding for HIV latency research to the Lever through MRC fellowships and grants from the Academy of Medical Sciences and Evelyn Trust: £614,567. (added in Jan 2020) - RIVER trial completed and accepted for publication in Lancet - The CHERUB collaboration aimed at HIV cure supported development of a virus reactivation assay by Wills and Lever, which was a crucially important component of the successful application by CHERUB for MRC DCS funding for a clinical trial that provided £1.7m to support 'RIVER', a randomized clinical study. It was crucial in the validation of viral remission in the recently reported second case of HIV 'cure' (Gupta et al 2019; HIV-1 remission following CCR5?32/?32 haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation; Nature 568, 244-248).
Collaborator Contribution Funding of RIVER: RIVER was funded by the Medical Research Council (Grant ref MR/L00528X/1) in collaboration with support from industry partners. Raltegravir and Vorinostat are manufactured by Merck Sharp and Dohme (MSD). MSD agreed to supply the study drugs free of charge for participants participating in the study. The manufacture of ChAdV63.HIVconsv and MVA.HIVconsv vaccines and all pre-clinical and clinical work to date for these vaccines have been provided free of charge to the RIVER study by Lucy Dorrell and Tomáš Hanke of the University of Oxford utilising their existing MRC grants. GSK own the ChAd vector and have reviewed the RIVER protocol and have approved the use of the ChAdV63.HIVconsv. in the RIVER study. RIVER was run by 'CHERUB', a UK collaboration of five universities pooling their expertise to develop an HIV cure. CHERUB is supported by the National Institute for Health Research and brings together HIV researchers at Imperial College London, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, Medical Research Council Clinical Trials Unit at UCL, and King's College London. RIVER was funded by the Medical Research Council, UK and the industry partners, MSD and GSK. The RIVER trial has now completed

Type Therapeutic Intervention - Vaccines
Year Development Stage Completed 2019
Development Status Closed
Impact A panel of 3'exon replacement constructs have been cloned into lentiviral gene transfer vectors for subsequent lentiviral vector production and validation of RNA trans-splicing and killing of HIV-infected cells of the immune system. RNA trans-splicing lentiviral vectors have been produced with detectable lentiviral protein in viral supernatants shown by ELISA. RNA transgene expression is being investigated in transduction experiments, and in some constructs RNA trans-gene expression has been confirmed in a preliminary experiment. Vector transfer and successful trans splicing have been demonstrated with a significant specific killing of HIV infected cells Optimisation of vector production has been achieved and more selective killing of HIV infected versus non infected cells has been seen. The work is now being targeted to attempt to kill cells containing reactivated latent HIV

Results and Impact There was optimism when UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock announced that a drug called remdesivir, which appears to shorten recovery time by about four days for people with Covid 19, is being made available on the NHS. The Health Secretary said it was probably the biggest step forward in the treatment of seriously ill patients since the crisis began. On the other hand it turns out a drug being touted, and taken, by President Trump isn't reliably good after all. The effect of hydroxychloroquine has been called into question after an analysis by American researchers who say it might even make things worse. While their study has limitations - particularly the fact that they looked at the drugs' effects at very high dose - the World Health Organisation has suspended trials of hydroxychloroquine, along with those of another chemically similar drug called chloroquine. The research has been published in the Lancet medical journal, and Phil Sansom has been discussing the drugs with Cambridge University pharmacologist, Anthony Davenport...
