Safety and Reactogenicity of Bioconjugate Vaccine to Prevent Shigella
A Phase 1 study testing Shigella vaccine in people with Shigellosis, run by GlycoVaxyn AG at 1 site in Switzerland.
Trial summary
Healthy volunteers will receive a 2-dose vaccination with Shigella dysenteriae candidate vaccine spaced 8 weeks apart. The objective is to demonstrate the safety and reactogenicity of the Shigella dysenteriae bioconjugate vaccine (GVXN SD133) alone or in combination with an adjuvant (Aluminium Hydroxide).

About this study
Official title: Safety and Reactogenicity of a Candidate Vaccine Against S. Dysenteriae When Administered to Healthy Adults
Healthy volunteers will receive a 2-dose vaccination with Shigella dysenteriae candidate vaccine spaced 8 weeks apart. The objective is to demonstrate the safety and reactogenicity of the Shigella dysenteriae bioconjugate vaccine (GVXN SD133) alone or in combination with an adjuvant (Aluminium Hydroxide). The safety and reactogenicity of the GVXN SD133 vaccine will be also evaluated at two different concentrations of antigen, Shigella polysaccharide O1. Blood samples will be collected at intervals to examine systemic vaccine antigen-specific immune responses.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Shigella vaccine in people with Shigellosis, run by GlycoVaxyn AG at 1 site in Switzerland.
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 6 inclusion and 15 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 13 Oct 2010. 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 Switzerland. 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?
Safety and reactogenicity of the bioconjugate vaccine, GVXN SD133 (time frame: Each study visits and at the and of the study). 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 NCT01069471, 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 13 Oct 2010; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
