Received: 29 October 2013; in revised form: 29 October 2013 / Accepted: 9 December 2013 / Published: 27 December 2013 Abstract: Interrogating immune correlates of infection risk for efficacious and non-efficacious HIV-1 vaccine clinical trials have provided hypotheses regarding the mechanisms of induction of protective immunity to HIV-1. To date, there have been six HIV-1 vaccine efficacy trials (VAX003, Vaxgen, Inc., San Francisco, CA, USA), VAX004 (Vaxgen, Inc.), HIV-1 Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN) 502 (Step), HVTN 503 (Phambili), RV144 (sponsored by the U.S. Military HIV Research Program, MHRP) and HVTN 505). Cellular, humoral, host genetic and virus sieve analyses of these human clinical trials each can provide information that may point to potentially protective mechanisms for vaccine-induced immunity. Critical to staying on the path toward development of an efficacious vaccine is utilizing information from previous human and non-human primate studies in concert with new discoveries of basic HIV-1 host-virus interactions. One way that past discoveries from correlate analyses can lead to novel inventions or new pathways toward vaccine efficacy is to examine the intersections where different components of the correlate analyses overlap (e.g., virus sieve analysis combined with humoral correlates) that can point to mechanistic hypotheses.

However, the search for one has been achievable. Here we describe how the results from these elusive despite more than 25 years of focused research. Results from large clinical studies, some unexpected, are driving vaccine the RV144 Thai efficacy trial have renewed hope that a vaccine may discovery. We also outline important lessons about data protect against HIV acquisition. We can draw several scientific and analysis, dissemination, and recruitment of communities operational lessons from RV144 and other recent tests-of-concept at risk. efficacy trials. Here we describe how trial results, some unexpected, highlight the fundamental role these clinical studies play in HIV vaccine discovery. These trials also teach us that transparency in data HIV VACCINE EFFICACY TRIALS TO DATE analysis and results dissemination can yield substantial rewards and Since the first gp160 vaccine entered clinical testing in that efforts to engage communities, particularly those most heavily 1987, more than 150 trials of different vaccine candidates have affected by the epidemic, are needed to augment research literacy and been conducted.2 These trials reflect 3 distinct waves of trial recruitment. Future efficacy trial designs may incorporate novel, vaccine development, including approaches designed to elicit partially effective prevention strategies.
