1 EDCTP Third Forum PARTNERSHIP AND AFRICAN LEADERSHIP IN VACCINE RESEARCH AND HIV/AIDS DRUG MBOUP Souleymane

2 HIV VACCINE IN AFRICA In 2005, 13 new trials of preventive AIDS vaccine candidates began in 9 countries around the world. Two of these involved vaccine candidates that entered Phase II trials, an intermediate stage of clinical evaluation. Several of those newly initiated trials involved novel vaccination strategies Participation by Africa in those trials is continuously increasing with Rwanda started its first AIDS vaccine and South Africa began the country s first Phase II AIDS vaccine trial

3 PROGRESS IN NUMBER OF COUNTRIES PARTICIPATING IN VACCINE TRIALS country 8 countries participating in vaccine trials

4 CLINICAL TRIAL SITES IN AFRICA PARTICIPATING IN HIV VACCINE TRIALS Kampala, Uganda Kayunga, Uganda Mulago, Uganda Entebbe, Uganda Masaka, Uganda Kigali, Rwanda Lusaka, Zambia Gabarone, Botswana Kericho, Kenya Kilifi, Kenya Kisumu, Kenya Nairobi, Kenya Dar es Salaam, Tanzania Blantyre, Malawi Medunsa,SA Mbeya, Tanzania Soweto, SA Cape Town, SA KOSH,SA Durban, SA Active Pending

10 FIRST TEST OF CONCEPT TRIAL : HVTN 503 A South African Study to test subtype B vaccine (Ad5 gag, pol, nef) in subtype C region (similar to STEP HVTN502 in MSM in USA): Will subtype B vaccine be efficacious against subtype C heterosexual infection Markedly enhance the information on efficacy in women Refine the assessment of the impact of pre-existing Ad5 titers More than double the number of endpoints to enhance the evaluation of correlates of protection. Adapted from G. Gray, PHRU, Soweto

11 VRC DNA PRIME RAD5 BOOST Currently largest trial concept being tested in Africa Enrolling into 3 trials /6 countries in Africa >600 participants Involving 3 major vaccine initiatives /networks. HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN) US Military HIV Research Program (USMHRP) International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) PAVE 100 (in planning fo 2007/8) will be next proof of concept trial in Africa planning to enrol ~12,000 globally and ~8,000 in Africa

14 INCREASING PARTICIPATION BY AFRICA > volunteers? 12 countries 50 volunteers 1 country 400 volunteers 8 countries 15 trial sites 2010 > volunteers

15 SCIENTIFIC CHALLENGES SPECIFIC TO AFRICA Vaccine Pipeline is too narrow Pre-existing immunity to vaccine vector Genetic Diversity

18 SHORT TERM EVALUATION ON THE FIRST 175 PATIENTS Virological and immunological results similar to Western countries Excellent Adherence Good Accessibilty and Acceptability

19 CLINICAL TRIALS IN AFRICA Access to ARV for HIV-infected individuals in resource-poor settings Efficacy? Safety? Adherence? Potent, safe, inexpensive simplified regimen

31 CONCLUSION (1) Increased African participation in vaccine trials Increased funding to address scientific questions Increased partnerships to accelerate the field Increased success rate at an accelerated pace (Results of first IIb trials in Africa still 3-5 years)

32 CONCLUSION (2) ARV scaling up in developing countries Host, viral,environmental factors ( logistical, operational etc..) Affordable second line regimen required Need of incresing African participation in ARV clinical trials Impact in developing and developed countries
