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
Supplementary funding for the acquisition of MPLA-Liposomes for the ongoing PrEPVacc study a Phase IIb, three-arm, two-stage HIV efficacy vaccine trial with a second randomisation to compare the newer PrEP drug Descovy to the established standard for PrEP, Truvada.

| Title | PrEPVacc clinical trial |
| Description | PrEPVacc is an international, multicentre, double-blind vaccine study will be a three-arm prospective 1:1:1 randomisation comparing each of two experimental combination vaccine regimens with placebo control. The study is funded by EDCTP. Pre-screening for risk and HIV status will take place as part of a Registration Cohort which will precede and continue in parallel to PrEPVacc enrolments. This will give HIV negative volunteers time to learn about the PrEPVacc trial and facilitate timely enrolment. Clinical screening for the vaccine trial will take place during the 8 weeks prior to randomisation. Eligible participants will be enrolled at week 0 and randomised to one of three vaccine arms: ? DNA-HIV-PT123 and AIDSVAX® B/E (target wks 0,4,24,48) ? DNA-HIV-PT123 and CN54gp140+MPLA-L (target wks 0,4), then MVA-CMDR and CN54gp140+MPLA-L (target wks 24,48) ? Saline placebo (target wks 0,4,24,48 There will be a concurrent 1:1 randomisation comparing two PrEP regimens, open-label: ? Daily TDF/FTC ? Daily TAF/FTC Participants will continue to receive study PrEP through to 2 weeks after their third immunisation after which access to PrEP will revert to locally registered supply of generic drug. The trial is currently enrolling at 4 clinical centres, 2 in Tanzania, 1 in South Africa and 1 in Uganda. To date the trial has enrolled 543 out of 1668 participants |
