Abstract

The US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institute of Health (NIH), convened a virtual workshop on August 8-9th, 2023 to explore potential synergies between HIV vaccine approaches that are designed to induce cellular or humoral immune responses. The goal of this workshop was to review data on leading vaccine candidates and to discuss the best strategies for combining these approaches to optimize immunity against HIV. Here, we summarize the findings reviewed at the workshop and discuss the knowledge gaps and priorities for future studies that will help accelerate the development of a preventive HIV vaccine.

Schemes were simplified to indicate the products and sequence of immunization; control groups, intervals and doses are not indicated. a Immunizations performed via intramuscular injections; heterologous viral vectors: VSV Vesicular Stomatitis virus, VV vaccinia virus, Ad5 Adenovirus type 5. BG505 SOSIP trimer - stabilized envelope protein (administered with 3M-052-AF+Alum). Red box – simian-human immunodeficiency virus challenges administered intravaginally. b Immunization routes are indicated on the left of each group; heterologous viral vectors: VSV Vesicular Stomatitis virus, VV vaccinia virus, Ad5 Adenovirus type 5, MVA modified vaccinia Ankara, ChAdC6 chimpanzee Adenovirus type C6. 1086c UFO – soluble uncleaved pre-fusion optimized gp140 trimer protein (administered subcutaneously with 3M-052-PLGA nanoparticles). Dotted red boxes - Gag peptide – immunodominant Gag peptide recognized by MAMU-A-1 are delivered vaginally non-traumatically 24 hs prior to tissue collection. Dashed boxes indicate intramuscular administration of the 1086c UFO protein in all groups.
