Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Outcome name:Urinalysis, LFT (including: ALT, alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin) amylase, CBC / Dif., PT, PTT, C-reactive protein, CPK, Ca 2+, PO4, albumin and creatinine. Measure:Safety and tolerability of a 3-dose regimen of the HIV-I gag vaccine in MRKAdS with 1x10 ^ 9 and 1x10 ^ 10 viral particles / dose. Timepoints:Weeks 1, 2, 5, 6, 26, 27 and 28 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Outcome name:the ELISPOT data of the IFN-y specific for ungrouped gag will be summarized at each immunogenicity visit for Group 1 (placebo), for Group 2 (HIV-I gag vaccine in MRKAd5 with 1x10 ^ 9 vp / d), and Group 3 (HIV-1 gag vaccine in MRKAd5 with 1x10 ^ 10 vp / d). Measure:Summarize separately the immunogenicity of HIV-1 gag vaccine groups in MRKAd5 which is measured by ELISPOT assay of unfractionated JFN-y specific gag, intracellular cytokine staining assay and anti-gag assay -VIH at all other time points local and systemic reactions, temperature and laboratory values out of range observed in the regions participating in the study. Timepoints:Weeks 1, 2, 5, 6, 26, 27 and 28 | — |
