NCT00440544

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a subunit tuberculosis vaccine given as two nasal immunizations composed of a hybrid protein antigen from M. tuberculosis virus mixed with a toxoid adjuvant, causes untoward adverse reactions when administered to healthy adult volunteers. Both subjects who have not received Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) and subjects who have already received BCG will be enrolled. An initial evaluation of immune responses to the vaccine will also be undertaken.
