healthy adults aged between 18 and 55. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery step that brings a safe and effective vaccine closer helps strengthen our ability to protect vulnerable communities, save lives and bring this outbreak under control,\u201d said Nicole Lurie from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), adding that the University of Oxford\u2019s work is a \u201cpivotal milestone in the response effort\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Oxford team is now recruiting volunteers for the study.

<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"articleBody\" data-key=\"articleBody\">The University of Oxford\u2019s Vaccine Group has launched the world\u2019s first human clinical trial of a vaccine against Bundibugyo Ebolavirus amid the ongoing outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda.\u00a0The Phase I clinical trial will take place in Oxford and will assess the safety and immune response of the vaccine in 50 healthy adults aged between 18 and 55.\u00a0\u201cEvery step that brings a safe and effective vaccine closer helps strengthen our ability to protect vulnerable communities, save lives and bring this outbreak under control,\u201d said Nicole Lurie from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), adding that the University of Oxford\u2019s work is a \u201cpivotal milestone in the response effort\u201d.The Oxford team is now recruiting volunteers for the study. In the coming weeks, following regulatory review for trial commencement, participants will be vaccinated and attend follow-up visits, the Oxford Vaccine Group announced in a press release.\u00a0Further clinical studies are also being prepared in Uganda, pending regulatory approval, at the Medical Research Council\/Uganda Virus Research Institute and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine&#8217;s Uganda Research Unit.\u00a0\u201cAs affected countries continue to respond to this outbreak, Africa CDC welcomes rapid scientific progress that is conducted with the highest standards of safety, regulatory oversight and partnership,\u201d said Jean Kaseya, the chief of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention.\u00a0He added that while early-stage clinical trials are not an immediate solution for communities facing the outbreak today, they are a critical part of building the tools needed for responding to current and future outbreaks.\u00a0The Bundibugyo epidemic affecting Congo and Uganda is among the largest ever recorded and infection numbers are still rising.\u00a0\u00a0As of 11 July, Congo\u2019s health ministry had confirmed 1,926 cases and 702 deaths across five provinces. On 12 July, Uganda confirmed 20 cases, including two deaths.\u00a0\u00a0Ten provinces are currently considered high-risk, including Kinshasa, according to Congo&#8217;s Ministry of Health.\u00a0<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/health\/2026\/07\/14\/first-bundibugyo-ebola-vaccine-to-start-human-trials-in-the-uk&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/83\/73\/66\/1200x675_cmsv2_98be9d1c-3d86-52c0-9f57-c39db2528a98-9837366.jpg&#8221;] Qatar US-Iran conflict widens after deadly tanker attack in Strait of Hormuz Iran US strikes Bushehr as Iran&#8217;s parliament tables bill to control Hormuz Tech News Google faces probe for giving Swiss users fewer options than in the EU No Comment Zelenskyy joins Macron and European leaders in Paris for Bastille Day [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2042831","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2042831","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2042831"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2042831\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2042831"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2042831"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2042831"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
