ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

This analysis evaluated the immune response to the two-dose, heterologous Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo Ebola virus vaccine regimen, administered 56-days apart, from multiple African sites based on results from one analytic laboratory.

METHODS:

Immunogenicity across three trials (EBL2002, EBL2004/PREVAC, EBL3001) conducted in East and West Africa is summarised. Vaccine-induced Ebola glycoprotein-binding antibody concentrations were analysed by Q2 Solutions laboratory at baseline, 21 days (EBL2002 and EBL3001) or 28 days (EBL2004) post-dose 2 (regimen completion), and 12 months post-dose 1 using the validated Filovirus Animal Nonclinical Group Ebola glycoprotein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Responders were defined as those with a >2.5-fold increase from baseline or the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) if FINDINGS: At 21 or 28 (21/28) days post-dose 2, the geometric mean concentration (GMC) range was 3810-7518 ELISA units (EU)/mL (percent responders ≥98%) in adults, 9929-13532 EU/mL (≥98%) in adolescents aged 12-17 years, 10,212-17388 EU/mL (≥99%) in older children, and 22,568-25111 EU/mL (≥98%) in younger children. When stratified by country, GMCs at 21/28 days post-dose 2 were generally similar among adults and within paediatric cohorts (percent responders 95%-100%). At month 12, GMC range was 259-437 EU/mL (percent responders 49%-88%) in adults and 386-1139 EU/mL (70%-100%) in paediatric participants.

INTERPRETATION:

Based on data from a single laboratory using a single validated assay, Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo induced a strong humoral immune response, with ≥95% of participants across countries classified as responders at 21/28 days post-dose 2 (regimen completion), regardless of age.
