Exclusion criteria

  • Abnormalities at physical exam [as determined by the Toxicity Grading Scale (Grade 1-4)];
  • Laboratory abnormalities [as determined by the Toxicity Grading Scale (Grade 1 4)] at screening;
  • Participated in research involving investigational product within 30 days before planned date of first vaccination;

  • Positive Serology for HIV-1, HIV-2, HbsAg, or HCV;
  • Known allergies to any component of the vaccine including adhesives;
  • An employee of the study site;
  • An employee of Intercell (global) or an immediate family member;

Primary outcomes

  1. Characterization and Comparison of the Safety of the TD Vaccine System: (1) Solicited and Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs) (2) Clinical Laboratory Safety (3) Serious AEs

    Time frame: Day 0 to Day 180

    Erythema, rash, pain, pruritus, hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation and edema were solicited local AEs for the duration of the study. Fever, malaise, headache, and diarrhea were solicited systemic AEs for the first seven days following each vaccination; events reported outside this time frame were considered non-solicited.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Characterization and Comparison of Group LT-specific Immune Responses to the TD Vaccine System: Geometric Mean Titers

    Time frame: Day 0 to Day 180

    LT immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin A (IgA)

  2. Characterization and Comparison of Group LT-specific Immune Responses to the TD Vaccine System: Geometric Mean Fold Ratios

    Time frame: Day 0 to Day 180

    LT immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin A (IgA)

  3. Characterization and Comparison of Group LT-specific Immune Responses to the TD Vaccine System: Seroconversion Rates

    Time frame: Day 0 to Day 180

    LT immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin A (IgA)
