  • Clinically significant abnormal laboratory values for any of the following screening laboratory parameters, per local laboratory normal ranges from blood collected within 30 days prior to Study Day 0 randomization as follows:
  • hemoglobin, hematocrit, absolute neutrophil count, absolute lymphocyte count, or platelet count below lower limit of normal (LLN)
  • white blood cell count above upper limit of normal (ULN) or below LLN (i.e., must be within normal limits)

  • Cannabis smoking 3 or more days per week
  • Positive urine test for illicit drugs (opiates, cocaine, amphetamines)
  • History or evidence on physical examination of any systemic disease or any acute or chronic illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the evaluation of the safety or immunogenicity of the vaccine

  • Received a tuberculin skin test within 3 months (90 days) prior to Study Day 0
  • Any current medical, psychiatric, occupational, or substance abuse problems that, in the opinion of the investigator, will make it unlikely that the participant will comply with the protocol or may compromise the safety of the participant

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Adverse Events

    Solicited and unsolicited adverse events will be recorded for 28 days following each study injection; serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest will be recorded for the duration of the study.

    Measured: 294 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunogenicity

    Immunogenicity will be evaluated by measuring humoral and cellular responses to ID93 + GLA-SE at specified timepoints.

    Measured: Days 0, 14, 42, 112, 126, 196, 294

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ID93 + GLA-SE in people with Pulmonary Tuberculosis, run by Access to Advanced Health Institute (AAHI) at 1 site in South Africa.

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 8 inclusion and 28 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 1 Feb 2018. 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 South Africa. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Number of Adverse Events (time frame: 294 days). 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 NCT01927159, 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 1 Feb 2018.
