Could a tiny skin shot replace the big rabies needle?
NCT ID NCT07345208
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two ways of giving the rabies vaccine: the standard shot in the muscle versus a smaller dose injected under the skin. Researchers want to see if the skin method works just as well and is as safe, while using less vaccine and costing less. About 90 healthy volunteers in Bangladesh will take part, and their immune response and side effects will be tracked for six months.
