About
The purpose of this phase 3 multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled rollover study is to evaluate the safety and long-term immunogenicity of CHIKV VLP vaccine in adult and adolescent participants and to evaluate CHIKV VLP booster vaccine induced serum neutralizing antibody (SNA) response at 3 or 4 years post-initial CHIKV VLP vaccination.
Full description
Primary Objectives:
- To evaluate the long-term immunogenicity of CHIKV VLP vaccine in healthy adult and adolescent participants as measured by proportion of participants maintaining an anti-CHIKV serum neutralizing antibody (SNA) titer ≥100 (seroresponse rate, also considered the presumptive seroprotection rate) at yearly intervals up to 5 years postvaccination in feeder studies EBSI-CV-317-004 (NCT05072080) and EBSI-CV-317-005 (NCT05349617).
- To assess the vaccine-induced SNA titers by a booster dose of CHIKV VLP vaccine at 3 or 4 years post-initial vaccination in feeder studies EBSI-CV- 317-004 and EBSI-CV-317-005.
- To evaluate the safety and tolerability of CHIKV VLP vaccine in all participants.
- To evaluate the safety and tolerability of a booster vaccination and compare with safety and tolerability reported post-initial vaccination of CHIKV VLP vaccine under feeder studies EBSI-CV-317-004 and EBSI-CV-317-005 in healthy adults and adolescents.
Secondary Objectives:
- To evaluate the long-term immunogenicity of CHIKV VLP vaccine in healthy adult and adolescent participants as measured by anti-CHIKV SNA geometric mean titers (GMTs) at yearly intervals up to 5 years post-initial vaccination in feeder studies EBSI-CV-317-004 and EBSI-CV-317-005.
- To evaluate the immune response to a booster vaccination and compare this response to that reported post-initial vaccination of CHIKV VLP vaccine under feeder studies EBSI-CV-317-004 and EBSI-CV-317-005 in healthy adults and adolescents.

Inclusion criteria
- Only within the EBSI-CV-317-004 feeder study informed consent form (ICF) (and/or assent form, as applicable), the participant voluntarily signed and agreed to be contacted or did not indicate they were not to be contacted for potential screening and enrollment in a future study (ie, EBSI-CV-317-008).
- Able and willing to provide informed consent (and assent, as applicable) voluntarily signed by participant (and guardian, as applicable) for participation in this rollover study EBSI-CV-317-008, including possible receipt of a booster dose of CHIKV VLP vaccine.
- Males or females, 12 years of age or older at the time of enrollment in the feeder study.
- Received a single dose of CHIKV VLP vaccine in one of the feeder studies, EBSI-CV-317-004 or EBSI-CV-317-005.
- Demonstrated compliance to the feeder study conduct (ie, rollover participant was without protocol deviations that excluded them from immunogenicity analysis in feeder study EBSI-CV-317-004 or EBSI-CV-317-005) without discontinuation or early withdrawal.
- Generally healthy, in the opinion of the investigator, based on medical history and physical examination.
Additional inclusion criteria to be assessed at Prerandomization Visit (Visit 5), before Randomization A (Visit 6), and before Randomization B (Visit 8 for Group 2) to determine eligibility for a booster dose of CHIKV VLP vaccine or placebo:
- Women who are either: i. Not of childbearing potential (CBP): premenarche, surgically sterile (at least six weeks postbilateral tubal ligation or bilateral total salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy), or postmenopausal (defined as a history of ≥12 consecutive months without menses prior to randomization in the absence of other pathologic or physiologic causes, following cessation of exogenous sex-hormonal treatment). For women who are postmenopausal, documented follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level of ≥40 mIU/mL must be obtained. If the FSH is <40 mIU/mL, the participant must agree to use an acceptable form of contraception. or: ii. Meet all the below criteria:
- Negative serum pregnancy test at Prerandomization and Prebooster Visits
- Negative urine pregnancy test immediately prior to booster dose administration
- Use one of these acceptable methods of contraception (if women of CBP) for at least six months after booster:
- Hormonal contraceptives (eg, implants, pills, patches) initiated ≥30 days prior to booster dose administration
- Intrauterine device (IUD) inserted ≥30 days prior to booster dose administration
- Double barrier type of birth control (male condom with female diaphragm, male condom with cervical cap)
- Abstinence is acceptable only for adolescents (12-<18 years of age) who are not sexually active.
Women participants of CBP must use an acceptable method of contraception from ≥30 days prior to Randomization A or assignment to Group 1; those who are randomized to Group 2 at year 3 can discontinue contraception until 30 days prior to booster dose administration, if desired. Women participants of CBP must use an acceptable method of contraception from ≥30 days prior to Randomization B through six-months postbooster vaccination dose (if applicable). Women participants of CBP randomized to Group 3 can discontinue contraception, if desired.
Note: Contraception requirements do not apply for participants in exclusively same-sex relationships and these participants should have no plans to become pregnant by any other means during the same time period as women of CBP are required to use contraception. Contraception requirements do not apply to Group 4 participants (unrandomized or unboosted).
Exclusion criteria
- Received placebo treatment in the feeder study.
- Measurable anti-CHIKV SNA at Day 1 in the feeder study.
- History of severe allergic reaction or anaphylaxis to any component of the investigational product (IP).
- Receipt of either an investigational or licensed CHIKV vaccine (excluding prior receipt of CHIKV VLP vaccine).
- New onset/diagnosis of any disease falling within the feeder study exclusion criteria including: i. History of any known congenital or acquired immunodeficiency that could impact response to vaccination (eg, leukemia, lymphoma, generalized malignancy, functional or anatomic asplenia, alcoholic cirrhosis) or ii. Clinically significant cardiac, pulmonary, rheumatologic, or other chronic disease, in the opinion of the investigator. This may include chronic illness requiring hospitalization during the feeder study.
- Evidence of substance abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, could adversely impact the individual's participation or the conduct of the study.
- Any other medical condition or general reason that, in the opinion of the investigator, could adversely impact the individual's participation or the conduct of the study.

Group 1: 30 days prior to Randomization A or assignment to Group 1 at Visit 6 through Visit 7 Group 2: 30 days prior to Randomization A at Visit 6 until the Randomization A visit and 30 days prior to booster dose at Visit 8 through Visit 9 Group 3: 30 days prior to Randomization A at Visit 6 until the Randomization A visit Group 4: 30 days prior to Randomization A at Visit 6 until the Randomization A visit Note: Participation in an observational trial or follow-up phase of a trial may be allowed; however, these instances should be discussed with this study's medical monitor (MM).
- Currently breastfeeding.
- Positive laboratory evidence of current infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B virus (HBV).
- Prior receipt or anticipated use of systemic immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive medications from six months prior to Prebooster Visit through 21 days after booster dose. Note: For systemic corticosteroids, use at a dose or equivalent dose of 20 mg of prednisone daily for 14 days or more within three months of Prebooster Visit through 21 days postbooster dose is exclusionary. The use of inhaled, intranasal, topical, ocular, or intraocular steroids is allowed.
