New vaccine trial aims to protect african babies from severe diarrhea

NCT ID NCT06663436

Summary

This study tested whether a 2-dose schedule of an experimental Shigella vaccine is safe and triggers a protective immune response in African infants. The trial involved 200 healthy 9-month-old babies in Kenya. Researchers measured antibody levels and monitored for side effects to determine if this simpler dosing could help prevent shigellosis, a serious diarrheal disease.
