This project is designed to prepare a GMP quality investigational multicomponent Ebola vaccine and complete the preclinical and laboratory studies needed to begin a clinical trial. The first clinical trial will be a Phase I study to examine tolerability, dose, and immune response of the Ebola recombinant adenoviral vector vaccine. The hypothesis is that this vaccine will be safe for human administration and elicit immune responses to Ebola. Dose escalation will be initiated provided there are no significant adverse events in the previous dose level.
