Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Latent TB infection groupExperimentalThe latent TB group will receive two injections of 50 microgram antigen + adjuvant (500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a)two months apart.
Receives: Biological: 50 microg. antigen + adjuvant (500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a)
BCG vaccinated groupExperimentalThe BCG vaccinated group will receive two vaccinations of 50 microgram antigen + adjuvant (500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a)two months apart
Receives: Biological: 50 microg. antigen + adjuvant (500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Physical examination. Local adverse events.Systemic adverse events. Laboratory safety tests including urine safety tests.

    Measured: From first vaccination until 8 months after the first vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Detection by ELISPOT of IFNgamma spot-forming cells in PBMCs. Detection by ELISA of IFNgamma production in supernatants of PBMC. Detection by ELISA of IgG antibodies in serum/plasma. Detection by Elisa of TNFalfa and IFNgamma in serum

    Measured: From first vaccination until 8 months after first vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 50 microg. antigen + adjuvant (500 nmol KLK + 20 nmol ODN1a) in people with Tuberculosis, run by Statens Serum Institut at 1 site in Netherlands.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Physical examination. Local adverse events.Systemic adverse events. Laboratory safety tests including urine safety tests. (time frame: From first vaccination until 8 months after the first vaccination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00929396, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jan 2013.
