Summary

This is a Phase I open-label, dose escalation trial to evaluate the use of Tice® BCG as a challenge for future assessment of in vivo TB immunity. Subjects will be recruited from the target population reflecting the community at 2 VTEU sites. Enrollment will occur over 14 months. Subjects who provide informed consent will be screened, and up to 120 eligible, HIV and TB uninfected subjects, 18-45 years, inclusive, will be enrolled for study interventions and sequentially assigned to 1 of 4 dose groups. Doses of Tice BCG from 2 to 16x10\^6 cfu will be delivered ID in a dose escalation format to 4 groups of 30 subjects per dose group. Primary Objectives: 1) Evaluate the safety of different doses of ID Tice BCG for use as a human challenge model for TB infection. 2) Examine shedding from ID challenge sites after administration of different doses of Tice BCG in TB naive healthy subjects. 3) Evaluate the reproducibility of BCG shedding over time with both quantitative PCR and culture.

Conditions

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

BCG TICE strain

All doses: Tice Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) will be administered as a single 0.1 ml ID injection over the deltoid muscle of the preferred arm. Groups 1 - 4 will receive one dose of Tice BCG intradermally at 2x10\^6 cfu, 4x10\^6 cfu, 8x10\^6 cfu and 16x10\^6 cfu, respectively.
