Brief Summary

This study used a randomized, open, blank control design. A total of 6800 patients over 15 years old with latent mycobacterium tuberculosis infection who met the inclusion criteria but did not meet the exclusion criteria were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the blank control group in a 1:1 ratio, with 3400 patients in each group. The experimental group was alternately injected with 1 dose of microcard every two weeks (0-2-4-6-8-10 weeks) in the left and right hip muscle deep, with a total of 6 doses. The blank control group was not injected with drugs.

Detailed Description

1. Effectiveness evaluation

Chest imaging examinations were performed at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after full injection. The blank control group underwent chest imaging examination at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after 10 weeks. The confirmed and clinically diagnosed cases of tuberculosis in the experimental group were collected from the first dose to 24 months after full injection and the blank control group from 24 months +10 weeks after enrollment. Follow-up is completed if 8 confirmed cases have been collected after 24 months. If no cases are collected within 24 months, follow-up is required until 8 confirmed cases are collected, and follow-up after 24 months only requires chest imaging every 6 months.

2. Safety evaluation

In the experimental group, AE was collected 30 minutes after each dose, AE was collected from the first dose to 30 days after the full dose, and SAE and AESI (including immune system related diseases such as thyroid/parathyroid disease) from the first dose to 6 months after the full dose. All pregnancy events from the first dose to 30 days after the full dose were collected.

In the control group, only all AESI (including immune system related diseases such as thyroid/parathyroid diseases) were collected up to 10 weeks and 6 months of enrollment.

The test group underwent thyroid palpation examination before injection and 6 months after injection. The blank control group underwent thyroid palpation examination on the day of enrollment, 10 weeks and 6 months after enrollment. Cervical ultrasound examination and five tests of thyroid function were added if there were abnormal thyroid palpation in the experimental group at 6 months after full injection and the blank control group at 10 weeks +6 months.

3. Immunogenicity evaluation

Blood samples of the first 100 subjects in the experimental group and the control group were collected for immunogenicity evaluation, which included cellular immunity and humoral immunity. The first 25 subjects in each group were tested for the absolute number of total white blood cells and specific T cells per unit volume of blood. Blood collection time points: 1 month and 12 months before the first dose of the experimental group was injected; The blank control group was the day of enrollment, 1 month +10 weeks and 12 months +10 weeks after enrollment.
