项目摘要

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an alphavirus that has gained significant attention due to its ability to cause large epidemics among susceptible populations and to be spread beyond endemic countries by international travelers. Among a population of approximately 750,000 on the French island of La Reunion, 266,000 people were infected and over 200 CHIKV-related fatalities occurred during the 2006 outbreak. Likewise, an estimated 1.4 million people were infected with CHIKV in India during outbreaks that occurred from 2006 to 2007 and recently there have been more than 1.7 million people infected with CHIKV in the Caribbean and the Americas. At present, there is no commercial vaccine available for CHIKV. The development of an inactivated CHIKV vaccine suitable for immunizing the general population as well as vulnerable groups including infants and the elderly represents an important unmet clinical need. To address this critical unmet need, we have discovered a safe and immunogenic peroxide-inactivated chikungunya virus vaccine, HydroVax-CHIKV. Importantly, this advanced vaccine is safe and provides complete protection against infection and CHIKV-associated pathology in a robust mouse model. Here, we propose a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 1 dose escalation trial to evaluate the preliminary safety and immunogenicity of HydroVax-CHIKV. Our goal is to eventually provide vaccine coverage to vulnerable populations and the successful completion of this study will represent a key milestone in the advancement of a clinically relevant vaccine against chikungunya virus and provide a much- needed approach to protect the most susceptible members of society including infants, elderly, and those with potentially compromised immune functions.

Chikungunya病毒（Chikv）是一种α病毒，由于其能够引起大的能力，因此受到了极大的关注国际旅行者在易感人群中流行，并将在流行国家以外传播。在法国洛杉矶聚会岛上约有75万人的人口中，有266,000人被感染 2006年爆发期间，超过200多名CHIKV相关的死亡发生。同样，估计有140万从2006年至2007年发生的爆发期间，人们在印度感染了Chikv 在加勒比海和美洲感染了Chikv的170万人超过170万人。现在， Chikv没有商业疫苗。灭活的CHIKV疫苗的开发为了免疫普通人群以及包括婴儿和老年人在内的脆弱群体重要的未满足的临床需求。为了满足这种关键的未满足需求，我们发现了一个安全和免疫原性过氧化物灭活的基孔肯雅病毒疫苗，Hydrovax-Chikv。重要的是，这是高级的疫苗是安全的，可完全保护感染和CHIKV相关的病理鼠标模型。在这里，我们提出了一项双盲，随机，安慰剂对照的1剂量升级试验评估Hydrovax-Chikv的初步安全性和免疫原性。我们的目标是最终提供疫苗对脆弱人群的覆盖范围以及这项研究的成功完成将代表关键在针对基孔肯雅病毒的临床相关疫苗发展中的里程碑，并提供了很多保护社会上最敏感成员的必要方法，包括婴儿，老年人以及潜在损害免疫功能。
