Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive GEN-004 with adjuvant or placebo. Each subject will receive up to 3 doses at 4 week intervals.

Following the third dose, subjects will be inoculated intranasally with S. pneumoniae serotype 6B. Nasal washes to identify S. pneumoniae colonization will be obtained pre-inoculation, and then 2, 7 and 14 days after inoculation.

Subjects will also be monitored for safety and tolerability throughout the dosing period, and then for 12 months after their last dose.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of GEN-004 in reducing colonization rates and magnitude of colonization following the S. pneumoniae challenge.

  • Pneumonia, Pneumococcal

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

GEN-004 with Aluminum Hydroxide Adjuvant

GEN-004: 100 µg of each antigen, with adjuvant, 350 µg aluminum hydroxide, administered as a 0.5 mL intramuscular (IM) injection. GEN-004 is a recombinant S. pneumoniae protein subunit vaccine consisting of 3 recombinant T cell antigens: * GB104: ABC transporter, substrate-binding protein * GB144: Maltose/maltodextrin binding protein, ABC transporter * GB152: Hypothetical protein GEN-004 is filled in 2 mL vials containing 0.5 mL (350 µg/mL of each antigen). Aluminum hydroxide adjuvant is filled in 2 mL vials containing 1 mL at a concentration of 5 mg/mL.

BIOLOGICAL

Placebo

Placebo: normal saline, 0.5 mL per dose, IM.

BIOLOGICAL

Streptococcus pneumoniae inoculation

Intranasal inoculation of S. Pneumoniae (80,000 CFU/100μl per nostril) serotype 6B.
