Summary

This protocol describes the challenge non-typhoidal Salmonella (CHANTS) study. This is a first-in-human phase 1, double-blinded, randomised, dose-escalation human infection study, conducted in healthy volunteers aged 18 to 50 years. The primary objective of the study is to perform a dose escalation with two strains (ST19 or ST313) to determine the infectious dose required for 60-75% of volunteers to develop Salmonellosis using a composite diagnostic criterion. The secondary objectives of the study are to describe and compare the clinical and laboratory features following controlled human infection. It is hoped that the successful establishment of an NTS human challenge model can be used in the future to test candidate vaccines for NTS disease.
