Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Safety, in HIV-uninfected, remotely BCG vaccinated adolescents, of Aeras-404 or BCG revaccination; measured by the number and percentage of unsolicited and solicited adverse events recorded post vaccination.;Prevention of Mtb infection, as measured by rates of conversion using a QFT-GIT assay (change from negative to positive), by AERAS-404 compared to placebo or BCG revaccination compared to placebo.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Prevention of Mtb infection measured by rates of sustained conversion using a QFT-GIT assay, by AERAS-404 compared to placebo, or BCG revaccination compared to placebo.;immunogenicity in HIV-uninfected, remotely BCG vaccinated adolescents of of AERAS-404 or BCG.
