Primary outcomes

  1. Occurrence of Vaccine-induced Systemic IgG Ab Binding to the 3 gp120 Env Proteins Contained in the Vaccine Regimen (ZM96, TV1.C, and 1086.C) in Group 1 and Group 2

    Serum IgG responses were measured on a Bio-Plex instrument using a standardized custom Luminex assay, run at 1:50 dilution. The readout is background-subtracted mean fluorescent intensity (MFI), with background adjustment for an antigen-specific plate level control. For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI \< 1 is set to 1, and net MFI \> 22,000 is set to 22,000. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the allowable window, a participant was HIV-infected, reference antigen \> 5,000 MFI, or baseline net MFI \> 6,500. Samples from post-enrollment visits have positive responses if they meet three criteria: (1) net MFI greater than or equal to an antigen-specific response threshold (defined as the maximum of 100 and the 95th percentile of baseline net MFI), (2) net MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline net MFI, and (3) experimental antigen MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline MFI.

  5. Vaccine-induced Occurrence of CD4+ T-cells Expressing Markers in Response to HIV Proteins Included in the Vaccine

    PBMC samples are stimulated with synthetic peptide pools or left unstimulated as a negative control. For each sample, T-cell subset, and peptide pool, response magnitude is % cells expressing markers (IFNg and/or IL-2) after peptide stimulation minus % cells expressing markers after no stimulation. A contingency table is constructed to assess response: stimulation (peptide/none) vs. marker expression (yes/no). A one-sided Fisher's exact test is applied, testing if the number of cells positive for the marker is equal in the stimulated vs. unstimulated cells. A discrete Bonferroni adjustment is made over the peptide pools. Response is positive if adjusted p-value \<=0.00001. Any Env magnitude is the maximum of 1086 gp120, TV1 gp120, and Env ZM96 magnitudes. Any HIV magnitude is the sum of Any Env and LAI Gag magnitudes. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the visit window, participant was HIV-infected, PBMC viability or T-cell count were low, or negative control was high.

  11. HIV-specific CD4+ T Cell Polyfunctionality by ICS - Functionality Scores

    COMPASS uses a Bayesian hierarchical framework to model all observed functional cell subsets and select those most likely to exhibit antigen-specific responses. Cell-subset responses are quantified by posterior probabilities. The functionality score (FS) summarizes, as a single number for each participant, the proportion of antigen-specific cell subsets among all measured subsets, irrespective of degree of functionality. FS ranges from zero to one. FS will assign a higher score to participants that exhibit antigen specificity in more cell subsets irrespective of their degree of functionality.

SecondaryOccurrence of Vaccine-induced Serum IgG Ab Binding to the 3 gp120 Env Proteins Contained in the Vaccine Regimen (ZM96, TV1.C, and 1086.C)

Serum IgG responses were measured on a Bio-Plex instrument using a standardized custom Luminex assay, run at 1:50 dilution. The readout is background-subtracted mean fluorescent intensity (MFI), with background adjustment for an antigen-specific plate level control. For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI \< 1 is set to 1, and net MFI \> 22,000 is set to 22,000. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the allowable window, a participant was HIV-infected, reference antigen \> 5,000 MFI, or baseline net MFI \> 6,500. Samples from post-enrollment visits have positive responses if they meet three criteria: (1) net MFI greater than or equal to an antigen-specific response threshold (defined as the maximum of 100 and the 95th percentile of baseline net MFI), (2) net MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline net MFI, and (3) experimental antigen MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline MFI.

For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI \< 1 is set to 1, and net MFI \> 22,000 is set to 22,000. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the allowable window, a participant was HIV-infected, reference antigen \> 5,000 MFI, or baseline net MFI \> 6,500. Summary was calculated among positive responders only (positivity criteria are described in Outcome 1).

SecondaryVaccine-induced Occurrence of CD4+ T-cells Expressing Markers in Response to HIV Proteins Included in the Vaccine

PBMC samples are stimulated with synthetic peptide pools or left unstimulated as a negative control. For each sample, T-cell subset, and peptide pool, response magnitude is % cells expressing markers (IFNg and/or IL-2) after peptide stimulation minus % cells expressing markers after no stimulation. A contingency table is constructed to assess response: stimulation (peptide/none) vs. marker expression (yes/no). A one-sided Fisher's exact test is applied, testing if the number of cells positive for the marker is equal in the stimulated vs. unstimulated cells. A discrete Bonferroni adjustment is made over the peptide pools. Response is positive if adjusted p-value \<=0.00001. Any Env magnitude is the maximum of 1086 gp120, TV1 gp120, and Env ZM96 magnitudes. Any HIV magnitude is the sum of Any Env and LAI Gag magnitudes. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the visit window, participant was HIV-infected, PBMC viability or T-cell count were low, or negative control was high.

SecondaryOccurrence of Vaccine-induced Serum IgG3 Ab Binding to Env Proteins

Serum IgG3 responses were measured on a Bio-Plex instrument using a standardized custom Luminex assay, run at 1:40 dilution. The readout is background-subtracted mean fluorescent intensity (MFI), with background adjustment for an antigen-specific plate level control. For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI \< 1 is set to 1, and net MFI \> 22,000 is set to 22,000. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the allowable window, a participant was HIV-infected, reference antigen \> 5,000 MFI, or baseline net MFI \> 6,500. Samples from post-enrollment visits have positive responses if they meet three criteria: (1) net MFI greater than or equal to an antigen-specific response threshold (defined as the maximum of 100 and the 95th percentile of baseline net MFI), (2) net MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline net MFI, and (3) experimental antigen MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline MFI.

SecondaryHIV-specific CD4+ T Cell Polyfunctionality by ICS - Functionality Scores

COMPASS uses a Bayesian hierarchical framework to model all observed functional cell subsets and select those most likely to exhibit antigen-specific responses. Cell-subset responses are quantified by posterior probabilities. The functionality score (FS) summarizes, as a single number for each participant, the proportion of antigen-specific cell subsets among all measured subsets, irrespective of degree of functionality. FS ranges from zero to one. FS will assign a higher score to participants that exhibit antigen specificity in more cell subsets irrespective of their degree of functionality.

SecondaryOccurrence of Vaccine-induced Serum IgG Ab Binding to the 3 gp120 Env Proteins Contained in the Vaccine Regimen (ZM96, TV1.C, and 1086.C)

Serum IgG responses were measured on a Bio-Plex instrument using a standardized custom Luminex assay, run at 1:50 dilution. The readout is background-subtracted mean fluorescent intensity (MFI), with background adjustment for an antigen-specific plate level control. For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI \< 1 is set to 1, and net MFI \> 22,000 is set to 22,000. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the allowable window, a participant was HIV-infected, reference antigen \> 5,000 MFI, or baseline net MFI \> 6,500. Samples from post-enrollment visits have positive responses if they meet three criteria: (1) net MFI greater than or equal to an antigen-specific response threshold (defined as the maximum of 100 and the 95th percentile of baseline net MFI), (2) net MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline net MFI, and (3) experimental antigen MFI values are greater than 3 times baseline MFI.

For each sample, response magnitude is net MFI, defined as experimental antigen MFI minus reference antigen MFI. Net MFI \< 1 is set to 1, and net MFI \> 22,000 is set to 22,000. Data are excluded if blood draw date was outside the allowable window, a participant was HIV-infected, reference antigen \> 5,000 MFI, or baseline net MFI \> 6,500. Summary was calculated among positive responders only (positivity criteria are described in Outcome 1).
