Could a tiny skin shot replace the big rabies needle?
NCT ID NCT07345208
First seen Jan 18, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests if giving the rabies vaccine into the skin (intradermal) works as well as the standard shot into the muscle (intramuscular). Rabies is nearly always fatal once symptoms start, but it is preventable with vaccination. The skin method uses less vaccine and could cut costs by 60-80%, making it easier to protect more people. The trial will involve 90 healthy volunteers in Bangladesh and check their immune response and safety over about six months.
