What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency and Severity of Solicited Local and Systemic AEs

    To assess the frequency and severity of solicited local (i.e., injective site) and systemic (such as fever) AEs during the first 7 days following each dose of vaccine.

    Measured: Approximately one year

  2. Frequency and Severity of Unsolicited AEs and SAEs

    To assess the frequency and severity of unsolicited AEs within 28 days of each dose of vaccine and the occurrence of any SAEs through 6 months after the last dose of vaccine

    Measured: Approximately two years

  3. Proportion of Responders

    To measure the proportion of subjects that achieve a four-fold increase in titer, as compared to baseline, of specific serum IgG anti-COPS (S. Enteritidis or S. Typhimurium), anti-Vi (S. Typhi) polysaccharide, and anti-FliC (S. Enteritidis or S. Typhimurium) antibody at days 29 and 57, as measured by ELISA.

    Measured: Approximately one and a half years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Trivalent Invasive Salmonella Disease Vaccine (6.25 µg), Trivalent Invasive Salmonella Disease Vaccine (12 µg) and Trivalent Invasive Salmonella Disease Vaccine (25 µg) in people with Risk Reduction, run by University of Maryland, Baltimore at 1 site in United States.

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 19 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 11 Mar 2025. 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 United States. 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?

Frequency and Severity of Solicited Local and Systemic AEs (time frame: Approximately one year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03981952, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 11 Mar 2025.
