Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Frequency and Severity of Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events (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.

    Approximately six months

  • Frequency and Severity of Unsolicited AEs and Serious Adverse Events (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

    Approximately six months

  • Proportion of Responders

    To measure the proportion of subjects that achieve a four-fold increase in titer, as compared to baseline, of specific serum Immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti-Core-O polysaccharide (anti-COPS) (S. Enteritidis or S. Typhimurium), anti-Vi (S. Typhi) polysaccharide, and anti-Flagellin subunit protein (anti-FliC) (S. Enteritidis or S. Typhimurium) antibody at day 29, as measured by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    approximately six months

Study Arms (4)

Group A: Full-Strength Formulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Individuals receive one dose of full-strength Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV). Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Biological: Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV) Full-Strength Formulation

Group B: Half-Strength Formulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Individuals receive one dose of half-strength Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV). Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Biological: Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV) Half-Strength Formulation

Group C: Dilutional Half-Strength Formulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Individuals receive one dose of dilutional half-strength Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV). Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Biological: Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV) Dilutional Half-Strength Formulation

Group D: Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Individuals receive one dose of placebo. Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Other: Placebo

Interventions

One dose of the full-strength conjugate vaccine is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The full-strength conjugate vaccine consists of 25 mcg of each conjugate; Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Typhi Vi.

Group A: Full-Strength Formulation

One dose of the half-strength conjugate vaccine is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The half-strength conjugate vaccine consists of 12.5 mcg of Salmonella Enteritidis, 12.5 mg of Salmonella Typhimurium, and 25 mcg of Salmonella Typhi Vi.

Group B: Half-Strength Formulation

One dose of the dilutional half-strength conjugate vaccine is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The dilutional half-strength conjugate vaccine consists of 12.5 mcg of each conjugate; Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Typhi Vi.

Group C: Dilutional Half-Strength Formulation
PlaceboOTHER

One dose of placebo is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The placebo consists of sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution containing polysorbate 80, and 2-phenoxyethanol preservative.

Group D: Placebo

  • \* females of child-bearing potential are defined as: not sterilized via tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, salpingectomy, hysterectomy, or successful Essure® placement (permanent, nonsurgical, non-hormonal sterilization) with documented radiological confirmation test at least 90 days after the procedure, and still menstruating or \<1 year of the last menses if menopausal.
  • \& acceptable birth control includes: non-male sexual relationships, abstinence from sexual intercourse with a male partner, monogamous relationship with vasectomized partner who has been vasectomized for 180 days or more prior to the subject receiving the first study vaccination, barrier methods such as condoms or diaphragms with spermicide or foam, effective intrauterine devices, NuvaRing®, and licensed hormonal methods such as implants, injectables, or oral contraceptives.

You may not qualify if:

  • History of typhoid vaccination or known history of typhoid infection within 5 years
  • Unacceptable laboratory abnormality from screening (prior to first vaccination) or upon safety laboratory testing (prior to second vaccination) as listed below. Laboratories with abnormalities which are possibly transient in nature may be repeated one time.
