Summary

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, single-center, dose finding phase I trial in healthy adult volunteer participants consisting of two phases, an unblinded dose escalation and an observer-blinded treatment phase.

The aim is to investigate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of MV-LASV after administration of two different dose levels of MV-LASV. Placebo will be applied to blind the different Treatment schedules.

Conditions

  • Lassa Virus Infection

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

MV-LASV

The MV-LASV vaccine candidate is a recombinant live attenuated viral vectored vaccine, based on the backbone of the measles Schwarz virus strain for prophylaxis of Lassa infection and will be administered in two different dose levels by intra muscular (i.m.) injection.

OTHER

Placebo

A sterile physiological saline solution will be used as placebo to ensure blinding of the treatment with low dose MV-LASV and placebo within treatment group A. Additionally, the Placebo will be used as a control arm to enable comparison of treatment reactions within treatment groups B and C.
