Phase II Clinical Trial of Safety and Immunogenicity of Recombinant Subunit Tuberculosis Vaccine GamTBvac

Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, Health Ministry of the Russian Federation

Abstract

This is a double-blind, randomized (in 3:1 ratio -vaccine : placebo) study to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity in healthy, BCG vaccinated adults.

Participants will be randomized in two groups (in 3:1 ratio -vaccine : placebo) to receive two doses of either GamTBvac or placebo. Subjects will be followed for 5 months after dose 1.

The primary goal of this study is to assess the immunogenicity of a tuberculosis subunit recombinant GamTBvac vaccine in a vaccination scheme with double administration to healthy volunteers.

The secondary goal of this study is the in-depth assessment of the safety and reactogenicity of the tuberculosis subunit recombinant vaccine GamTBvac when given twice to healthy volunteers.
