The vaccine consists of whole killed H. pylori cells in combination with a mucosal adjuvant. We are looking towards this trial to provide evidence that our vaccine will be useful as a prophylactic and potential therapeutic treatment of H. pylori disorders in humans. H. pylori is a common bacterial pathogen of humans worldwide. H. pylori is the major cause of chronic active gastritis and peptic ulcer disease and a risk factor for gastric cancer.
Infection also increases the risk of other diseases, including persistent diarrhea.
