A Study of a 2-dose Ebola Vaccine Regimen of Ad26.ZEBOV Followed by MVA-BN-Filo in Healthy Pregnant Women

A Phase 3 Open-label Randomized Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of a 2-dose Ebola Vaccine Regimen of Ad26.ZEBOV Followed by MVA-BN-Filo in Healthy Pregnant Women

The purpose of this study is: a) to assess adverse maternal/fetal outcomes in pregnant women randomized to receive the 2- dose Ebola vaccine regimen (Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo [Group A]) and in control women (unvaccinated pregnant women [Group B]); and b) to assess adverse neonatal/infant outcomes in neonates/infants born to women randomized to receive the 2-dose Ebola vaccine regimen (Ad26.ZEBOV, MVA-BN-Filo [Group A]) and in neonates/infants born to control women (unvaccinated during pregnancy [Group B]).

Inclusion Criteria:

• Healthy on the basis of physical examination, medical history, obstetric history, and vital signs performed at screening
• Healthy on the basis of clinical laboratory tests performed at screening
• Confirmed singleton pregnancy by positive urine human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and ultrasound at time of screening and informed consent, and reconfirmed pregnancy via ultrasound at Randomization/Day 1
• Residing within catchment area of the study site
• Evidence of normal progress of gestation prior to Randomization (Day 1) based on obstetric evaluation (including obstetric history, obstetric examination and fetal ultrasound)

Exclusion Criteria:

• History of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) (self-declared or laboratory confirmed)
• Has received any experimental candidate Ad26- or MVA-based vaccine in the past
• Known allergy or history of anaphylaxis or other serious adverse reactions to vaccines or vaccine products (including any of the constituents of the study vaccines [for example, polysorbate 80, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) or L-histidine for Ad26.ZEBOV vaccine; tris (hydroxymethyl)-amino methane (THAM) for MVA-BN-Filo vaccine]), including known allergy to egg, egg products, chicken proteins and aminoglycosides
• Participant with acute illness (this does not include minor illnesses such as diarrhea or mild upper respiratory tract infection) or body temperature greater than or equal to (>=)38.0ºC on Day 1 will be excluded from enrollment at that time but may be rescheduled for enrollment at a later date
• During the 6 weeks prior to screening, have had any of (a) confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (COVID-19) infection (test positive), OR (b) suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection (clinical features without documented test results), OR (c) close contact with a person with known or suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection
• Obstetric history including: a. >= 2 consecutive spontaneous abortions, b. history of pre-eclampsia or eclampsia, c. rhesus negative multigravida, d. grand multigravida (greater than [>] 5 previous pregnancies, e. previous late still birth (defined as loss of pregnancy at any time after 28 weeks gestation), f. previous low birth weight baby or premature delivery (defined as a delivery before 37 weeks gestation), g. previous neonatal death (defined as death of an infant within the first 28 days of life), h. previous delivery of an infant with a known or suspected genetic or chromosomal abnormality, i. history of other significant pregnancy-related or neonatal complications judged likely to affect the safety of the mother or infant or to significantly compromise the endpoint data collected
