Study: NCT02143518

Intervention type: BIOLOGICAL
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Na-GST-1/Alhydrogel®
Description: The Na-GST-1 candidate vaccine contains the recombinant Na-GST-1 protein expressed by Pichia pastoris. Purified Na-GST-1 was subsequently adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide gel (Alhydrogel®) and suspended in a solution containing 10% glucose and 10 mM imidazole. The final concentration of Na-GST-1 in the drug product is 0.1 mg/ml whereas that of Alhydrogel® is 0.8 mg/ml. Different doses of Na-GST-1 will be delivered by injecting different volumes of the 0.1 mg/ml Na-GST-1 preparation.

Intervention: CpG 10104
Description: Unmethylated cytosine-guanine dinucleotides (CpGs) are found in bacterial DNA in the expected frequency predicted by random usage, whereas their occurrence is suppressed 4-fold in vertebrate DNA. In vertebrate DNA CpG motifs are also usually methylated. Bacterial CpG-DNA motifs are recognized by the human innate immune system via Toll-like Receptor-9 (TLR-9), a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) receptor that is expressed, in particular, by antigen-presenting dendritic cells. Interactions between CpG-DNA and TLR9 rapidly activate antigen-presenting dendritic cells to upregulate co-stimulatory molecules and to produce Th1-polarizing cytokines such as interleukin-12 and interferon gamma. CpG 10104 is a short synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide of the following sequence: 5'-TCG TCG TTT CGT CGT TTT GTC GTT-3'.
