Safety and Tolerability of AV-1959R Compared to Placebo Primary · Up to 26 weeks

Safety will be assessed by the incidence of AEs and SAEs after intramuscular administration of AV-1959R (100 mcg and 300 mcg) or placebo through Week 26. Injection site reactions, clinical laboratory results, vital signs, physical examinations, and MRI will also be monitored through Week 26.

Immunogenicity of AV-1959R: Anti-Aβ Antibody Response Secondary · Day 42 (after two immunizations)

Immunogenicity will be assessed by quantifying anti-Aβ antibody levels in plasma samples collected at predefined study visits. Antibody titers will be determined using a validated ELISA method.

Sponsor's own description

This Phase 1 clinical trial evaluates the safety, tolerability, and immune response of the adjuvanted AV-1959R vaccine in healthy adults aged 40-60. Participants will receive three intramuscular injections of either adjuvanted AV-1959R (100 µg or 300 µg) or adjuvanted placebo at Weeks 0, 4, and 14, followed by an 8-week follow-up. Researchers will monitor for side effects and measure anti-Aβ antibody levels to assess immune response. This study will help determine if AV-1959R is safe and effective in generating a targeted immune response.
