Safety and Risk of Sensitisation of the rdESAT-6 + rCFP-10 Skin Test Following Repeated Intradermal Administration
This study is not yet open for participant recruitment.
Verified by Statens Serum Institut, November 2008
Sponsored by: Statens Serum Institut
Information provided by: Statens Serum Institut
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00793702
  Purpose

The primary objective is to assess the safety of three dose levels (0.01, 0.1 and 1.0 µg) of the rdESAT-6 + rCFP-10 skin test reagent when injected to healthy adults.The secondary objective is to assess the risk of sensitisation of 0.01 and 0.1 µg rdESAT-6 + rCFP-10 when injected twice with time intervals of 6 or 12 weeks to healthy adults.

Further study details as provided by Statens Serum Institut:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Local and systemic adverse events with onset after the FIRST (0.01, 0.1 and 1.0 µg) or SECOND (0.01 and 0.1 µg) injection. [ Time Frame: onset between the first injection and 28 days after the second injection ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • The diameter of induration at the second injection site measured transversely to the long axis of the forearm [ Time Frame: 72 hours after the second injection ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
