Extrait
The dose of recombinant MVA used in the TB trials to date is relatively low compared with other trials using recombinant MVAs which have used up to 2.5 x 108pfu (A Hill, personal communication). Having demonstrated safety and immunogenicity of 5 x 107pfu of MVA85A, we now need to perform a dose optimization study, prior to commencing larger scale Phase II and III studies in South Africa. We will vaccinate 12 volunteers with a dose half a log lower than the dose we are currently using, i.e. 107pfu MVA85A, and 12 volunteers with a dose half a log higher, i.e. 108pfu.
