THYB-01: A Safety and Immunogenicity Trial With an Adjuvanted Tuberculosis(TB) Subunit Vaccine
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of an adjuvanted TB subunit vaccine administered at 0 and 2 months in healthy BCG-unvaccinated volunteers with no prior history of TB disease or known prior exposure to TB

Experimental: Antigen group + high adjuvans The antigen group + high adjuvans group received two injections of antigen (Ag85B + ESAT-6) + IC31 (500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a) two months apart. |
Biological: 50 microgram antigen (Ag85B + ESAT-6) + 500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a
0.5 mL suspension for injection x 2 with 2 months interval

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Physical examination. Local adverse events. Systemic adverse events. Laboratory safety tests including urine safety tests. [From the first vaccination until 8 months after the first vaccination]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Detection by ELISPOT of IFN gamma spot-forming cells in PBMC. Detection by ELISA of IFN gamma production in supernatants of PBMC. Detection of humoral response (IgG) by ELISA. [From first vaccination until 36 months after first vaccination]
