A combination typhoid and non-typhoidal Salmonella polysaccharide conjugate vaccine in healthy adults: a randomized, placebo-controlled phase 1 trial.

ABSTRACT: In sub-Saharan Africa, typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) are leading causes of invasive disease among young children. Trivalent Salmonella conjugate vaccine (TSCV) consists of Vi capsule polysaccharide conjugated to tetanus toxoid and core-plus-O-polysaccharides from the two most prevalent invasive NTS serovars conjugated to flagellin subunits. We conducted a first-in-human, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 1 trial evaluating the safety and immunogenicity of TSCV. A total of 22 healthy adults aged 18-45 years were randomly allocated to 6.25-µg TSCV (n = 8), 12.5-µg TSCV (n = 10) or placebo (n = 4). The primary objective was the assessment of safety. The co-primary immunogenicity objective was the serum IgG response against the three vaccine polysaccharides and two flagellin
