Study Groups

Group A: Full-Strength Formulation

Individuals receive one dose of full-strength Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV). Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV) Full-Strength Formulation

Intervention Type: BIOLOGICAL

One dose of the full-strength conjugate vaccine is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The full-strength conjugate vaccine consists of 25 mcg of each conjugate; Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Typhi Vi.

Group B: Half-Strength Formulation

Individuals receive one dose of half-strength Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV). Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV) Half-Strength Formulation

Intervention Type: BIOLOGICAL

One dose of the half-strength conjugate vaccine is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The half-strength conjugate vaccine consists of 12.5 mcg of Salmonella Enteritidis, 12.5 mg of Salmonella Typhimurium, and 25 mcg of Salmonella Typhi Vi.

Group C: Dilutional Half-Strength Formulation

Individuals receive one dose of dilutional half-strength Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV). Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine (TSCV) Dilutional Half-Strength Formulation

Intervention Type: BIOLOGICAL

The dilutional half-strength conjugate vaccine consists of 12.5 mcg of each conjugate; Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Typhi Vi.

Group D: Placebo

Individuals receive one dose of placebo. Subsequent blood samples are taken for safety and immunological testing.

Group Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type: OTHER

One dose of placebo is administered via an intramuscular injection in to the deltoid muscle on Study Day 1. The placebo consists of sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution containing polysorbate 80, and 2-phenoxyethanol preservative.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Ability to provide written informed consent
• Age 18 - 49 years, inclusive
• Good general health as determined by: vital signs (heart rate <100 bpm; blood pressure systolic >90 mm Hg and ≤150 mm Hg; diastolic >45 mm Hg and ≤90 mm Hg; oral temperature <100.4ºF), medical history, and a physical examination† within 45 days before administration of first dose of vaccine.

† The intent is to evaluate for acute or ongoing chronic medical conditions which have been present for 90 days or more and which could affect the assess of safety or immunogenicity. Chronic medical conditions should be stable for at least 60 days; defined as no hospitalizations, ER, or urgent care for medical intervention and no change in chronic prescription medications for at least 60 days. Changes in medications due to insurance or financial reasons and when within the same class of medications or changes for improvements in medical conditions are not exclusionary. Medications which are taken prn are also no exclusionary.

• Expressed interest and availability to fulfill the study requirements
• For females of child-bearing potential*, must agree to acceptable birth control &, 4 weeks before enrollment and through 4 weeks after last vaccination.

• females of child-bearing potential are defined as: not sterilized via tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, salpingectomy, hysterectomy, or successful Essure® placement (permanent, nonsurgical, non-hormonal sterilization) with documented radiological confirmation test at least 90 days after the procedure, and still menstruating or <1 year of the last menses if menopausal.

& acceptable birth control includes: non-male sexual relationships, abstinence from sexual intercourse with a male partner, monogamous relationship with vasectomized partner who has been vasectomized for 180 days or more prior to the subject receiving the first study vaccination, barrier methods such as condoms or diaphragms with spermicide or foam, effective intrauterine devices, NuvaRing®, and licensed hormonal methods such as implants, injectables, or oral contraceptives.

2. Creatinine, Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin, or C-reactive protein of an unacceptable value c. Positive serology for hepatitis C or HIV antibody or hepatitis B surface antigen.

(Subjects will be informed if their results are positive for hepatitis C, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) antibody or hepatitis B surface antigen and will be referred to a primary care provider for follow up of these abnormal laboratory tests.)

• For women of child-bearing potential, positive serum pregnancy test (during screening within 45 days of enrollment) or positive urine pregnancy test (prior to and within 24 hours of administering each dose of vaccine).
