Abstract

This was a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted at 1 site in South Africa. A total of 26 subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive 2 doses of either AERAS-402 at 3 x 10\^10 vp (N=13) or placebo (N=13) on Study Days 0 and 28. Dose-escalation to a second group of 40 subjects was planned, but although no safety concerns were identified, the sponsor decided not to continue the study.
