AbstractBackground. Zika virus (ZIKV) infection may be associated with severe complications and disseminated via both vector-borne and nonvector-borne routes. Adenovirus-vectored vaccines represent a favorable controlling measure for the ZIKV epidemic because they have been shown to be safe, immunogenic, and rapidly generable for other emerging viral infections. Evaluations of 2 previously reported adenovirus-vectored ZIKV vaccines were performed using nonlethal animal models and/or nonepidemic ZIKV strain. Methods. We constructed 2 novel human adenovirus 5 (Ad5)-vectored vaccines containing the ZIKV premembrane-envelope (Ad5-Sig-prM-Env) and envelope (Ad5-Env) proteins, respectively, and evaluated them in multiple nonlethal and lethal animal models using epidemic ZIKV strains. Results. Both vaccines elicited robust humoral and cellular immune responses in immunocompetent BALB/c mice. Dexamethasone-immunosuppressed mice vaccinated with either vaccine demonstrated robust and durable antibody responses and significantly lower blood and tissue viral loads than controls (P < .05). Similar findings were also observed in interferon-alpha/beta receptor-deficient A129 mice. In both of these immunocompromised animal models, Ad5-Sig-prM-Env-vaccinated mice had significantly (P < .05) higher titers of anti-ZIKV-specific neutralizing antibody titers and lower (undetectable) viral loads than Ad5-Env-vaccinated mice. The close correlation between the neutralizing antibody titer and viral load helped to explain the better protective effect of Ad5-Sig-prM-Env than Ad5-Env. Anamnestic response was absent in Ad5-Sig-prM-Env-vaccinated A129 mice. Conclusions. Ad5-Sig-prM-Env provided sterilizing protection against ZIKV infection in mice.
