About this study

Official title: A Phase I/IIa Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Conserved-Mosaic T-cell Vaccine in a Regimen With Vesatolimod and Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies in Adults Initiated on Suppressive Antiretroviral Therapy During Acute HIV-1

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of therapeutic vaccination with chimpanzee adenovirus ChAdOx1- and poxvirus modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-vectored conserved mosaic T-cell vaccines in a sequential regimen with the toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist vesatolimod (VES) and two broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) compared to placebo, to induce HIV-1 control during analytic treatment interruption (ATI).

Read the detailed description

A5374 is a phase I/IIa randomized, two-arm, double-blind placebo-controlled, multi-step strategy trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of therapeutic vaccination with chimpanzee adenovirus ChAdOx1- and poxvirus modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-vectored conserved mosaic T-cell vaccines in a sequential regimen with the toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist vesatolimod (VES) and two broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) of the CD4 binding site and V3-loop base classes in individuals with HIV-1 who started suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART) during acute HIV-1.

Participants will be screened for eligibility and have a pre-entry visit. After determination of eligibility, participants will be randomized prior to entry to either the active intervention arm (Arm A) or the placebo arm (Arm B) in a 2:1 ratio.

The study consists of four steps including an analytic treatment interruption (ATI) for all participants, and two subsequent optional steps including a second ATI for placebo participants.

  • Step 1: Study Intervention and ART (67 weeks)
  • Step 2: Analytic Treatment Interruption (up to 24 weeks)
  • Step 3: ART Restart (24 weeks)
  • Step 4: Continuation of ATI (up to 24 weeks)
  • Step 5 (optional): Study Intervention and ART (Placebo roll-over)
  • Step 6 (optional): Analytic Treatment Interruption 2 (ATI 2)

Each participant will complete Step 1 and Step 2. At any time on Step 2[mw1.1][KM1.2], participants on Arm A who meet criteria to restart ART will enter Step 3 and resume ART. Arm B (placebo) participants who have experienced virologic restart criteria may choose to enter Step 3 to resume ART or elect to enter Step 5 to resume ART and receive active study products. Participants who elect to enter Step 5 will undergo second ATI in Step 6. Participants who do not meet ART restart criteria after 24 weeks in Step 2 will enter Step 4 for an extended ATI.

Each participant will be enrolled for up to approximately 110 weeks. The total time on study for each participant is dependent on the time spent in the treatment interruption steps (Step 2 and 4).

Eligible participants participating in for Steps 5 and 6 will have up to 110 additional weeks on study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ChAdOx1.tHIVconsv1, ChAdOx1.HIVconsv62 and MVA.tHIVconsv3 in people with HIV-1-infection, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 11 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 27 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States, Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Occurrence of any serious adverse event (AE), Grade 3 or higher AE, or AE that leads to permanent discontinuation of study treatment regardless of grade, that is related to ChAdOx1-MVA/HIVconsvX vaccines, vesatolimod, GS-5423 or GS-2872 (time frame: Week 0 to Week 64). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Sep 2026.
