Detectable Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV)–Specific Humoral and Cellular Immune Responses Following VSV–Ebola Virus Vaccination in Humans

In response to the Ebola virus (EBOV) crisis of 2013–2016, a recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)–based EBOV vaccine was clinically tested (NCT02283099). A single-dose regimen of VSV-EBOV revealed a safe and immunogenic profile and demonstrated clinical efficacy. While EBOV-specific immune r...

Sumario:In response to the Ebola virus (EBOV) crisis of 2013–2016, a recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)–based EBOV vaccine was clinically tested (NCT02283099). A single-dose regimen of VSV-EBOV revealed a safe and immunogenic profile and demonstrated clinical efficacy. While EBOV-specific immune responses to this candidate vaccine have previously been investigated, limited human data on immunity to the VSV vector are available. Within the scope of a phase 1 study, we performed a comprehensive longitudinal analysis of adaptive immune responses to internal VSV proteins following VSV-EBOV immunization. While no preexisting immunity to the vector was observed, more than one-third of subjects developed VSV-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte responses and antibodies.
