VSV-EBOPLUS SYSTEMS ANALYSIS OF ADULT AND PEDIATRIC RESPONSES TO THE VSV-ZEBOV EBOLA VACCINE - Sofia ref.: 116068
Coordinator: SCLAVO VACCINES ASSOCIATION (IT)
The vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)-Zaire Ebola vaccine (VSV-ZEBOV) is a recombinant vector-based vaccine in which the VSV envelope glycoprotein was replaced with the Zaire strain Ebola virus glycoprotein. Within one year of the initiation of its clinical development, the VSV-ZEBOV vaccine has demonstrated safety, immunogenicity and a remarkably high protective efficacy against Ebola Virus Disease, using a high vaccine dose (2x107 pfu) in the WHO-sponsored VSV-ZEBOV ring-vaccination trial in adults in Guinea. However, several key questions remain unanswered, including its mode of action, its…
About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)
Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.
Co-funding: the European Union contributes €8.6M toward a total project budget of €15.4M — a funding rate of 55%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 7 years from 2016-04-01 to 2023-03-31.
