About
This is a single site, phase 1 study of dmLT as a mucosal adjuvant to control fecal viral shedding when used in combination with intradermally administered fractional dose trivalent IPV (fIPV). It will be a 2-arm, randomized, double-blind controlled trial of intradermal fIPV versus fIPV+dmLT in healthy adults with a monovalent oral polio vaccine (OPV) challenge administered as a test of mucosal immunity. A maximum of 30 healthy subjects will be recruited, all of whom will have received IPV only as part of their primary childhood immunization series (cohort 1); they will be randomized 2:1 to receive fIPV-dmLT or fIPV alone. A maximum of 27 participants will be recruited from an earlier pilot study population exposed to fIPV+/-dmLT and will provide follow-up samples for immunologic studies only (cohort 2).
