RESUMO

BACKGROUND: WHO has identified Marburg virus as an emerging virus requiring urgent vaccine research and development, particularly due to its recent emergence in Ghana. We report results from a first-in-human clinical trial evaluating a replication-deficient recombinant chimpanzee adenovirus type 3 (cAd3)-vectored vaccine encoding a wild-type Marburg virus Angola glycoprotein (cAd3-Marburg) in healthy adults. METHODS: We did a first-in-human, phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation trial of the cAd3-Marburg vaccine at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research Clinical Trials Center in the USA. Healthy adults aged 18-50 years were assigned to receive a single intramuscular dose of cAd3-Marburg vaccine at either 1 × 1010 or 1 × 1011 particle units (pu). Primary safety endpoints included reactogenicity assessed for the first 7 days and all adverse events assessed for 28 days after vaccination. Secondary immunogenicity endpoints were assessment of binding antibody responses and T-cell responses against the Marburg virus glycoprotein insert, and assessment of neutralising antibody responses against the cAd3 vector 4 weeks after vaccination. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03475056. FINDINGS: Between Oct 9, 2018, and Jan 31, 2019, 40 healthy adults were enrolled and assigned to receive a single intramuscular dose of cAd3-Marburg vaccine at either 1 × 1010 pu (n=20) or 1 × 1011 pu (n=20). The cAd3-Marburg vaccine was safe, well tolerated, and immunogenic. All enrolled participants received cAd3-Marburg vaccine, with 37 (93%) participants completing follow-up visits; two (5%) participants moved from the area and one (3%) was lost to follow-up. No serious adverse events related to vaccination occurred. Mild to moderate reactogenicity was observed after vaccination, with symptoms of injection site pain and tenderness (27 [68%] of 40 participants), malaise (18 [45%] of 40 participants), headache (17 [43%] of 40 participants), and myalgia (14 [35%] of 40 participants) most commonly reported. Glycoprotein-specific antibodies were induced in 38 (95%) of 40 participants 4 weeks after vaccination, with geometric mean titres of 421 [95% CI 209-846] in the 1 × 1010 pu group and 545 [276-1078] in the 1 × 1011 pu group, and remained significantly elevated at 48 weeks compared with baseline titres (39 [95% CI 13-119] in the 1 ×1010 pu group and 27 [95-156] in the 1 ×1011 pu group; both p<0·0001). T-cell responses to the glycoprotein insert and neutralising responses against the cAd3 vector were also increased at 4 weeks after vaccination. INTERPRETATION: This first-in-human trial of this cAd3-Marburg vaccine showed the agent is safe and immunogenic, with a safety profile similar to previously tested cAd3-vectored filovirus vaccines. 95% of participants produced a glycoprotein-specific antibody response at 4 weeks after a single vaccination, which remained in 70% of participants at 48 weeks. These findings represent a crucial step in the development of a vaccine for emergency deployment against a re-emerging pathogen that has recently expanded its reach to new regions.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the antiangiogenic properties of 17-(dimethylaminoethylamino)-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-DMAG; NSC707545), a water-soluble benzoquinone ansamycin. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The activity of 17-DMAG, in vivo, was evaluated for inhibition of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2-induced angiogenesis in s.c. implanted Matrigel in mice. In vitro, the activity of 17-DMAG on endothelial cells (human umbilical vein endothelial cells; HUVEC) was tested in FGF-2; and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced proliferation and apoptosis, motility, and extracellular matrix invasion; and on the alignment of capillary like structures in Matrigel. The protein level of heat shock protein (Hsp)90 and client proteins was examined by Western blot in FGF-2 and VEGF-stimulated HUVEC. RESULTS: Daily oral administration of 17-DMAG affected the angiogenic response in Matrigel in a dose-dependent manner. The hemoglobin content in the Matrigel implants was significantly inhibited, and the histological analysis confirmed a decrease of CD31(+) endothelial cells and of structures organized in cord and erythrocyte-containing vessels. In vitro, the compound inhibited dose-dependently the migration and the extracellular matrix-invasiveness of HUVEC and their capacity to form capillary like structures in Matrigel. 17-DMAG treatment also inhibited FGF-2 and VEGF-induced HUVEC proliferation and resulted in apoptosis. Accordingly, the expression of Hsp90 direct client proteins (pAkt and c-Raf-1) or their downstream substrates including pERK was also affected. 17-DMAG consistently increased the expression of Hsp70. Throughout the study similar results were obtained with 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG; NSC330507), the analog compound currently undergoing clinical trials. CONCLUSIONS: We show that the Hsp90 targeting agents 17-DMAG and 17-AAG inhibit angiogenesis. The strong effects on endothelial cell functions, in vitro, indicate that the antiangiogenic activity of 17-DMAG/17-AAG could also be due to a direct effect on endothelial cells. The oral bioavailability of 17-DMAG might be of advantage in investigating the potential of this compound in clinical trials with antiangiogenic as well as antiproliferative endpoints.
