Triple threat: new vaccine aims to tackle three salmonella strains at once
NCT ID NCT05784701
First seen Jun 29, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new vaccine designed to protect against three common types of Salmonella bacteria that cause serious infections in Sub-Saharan Africa. The trial includes healthy participants ranging from adults down to young infants, and compares the vaccine to a placebo to see if it is safe and triggers a strong immune response. Researchers are also testing different doses and a booster schedule to find the best way to use the vaccine.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Trivalent Salmonella conjugate vaccine (TSCV)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this vaccine could help protect against three major types of Salmonella infections, reducing severe illness and death in regions where these diseases are common.
- What could go wrong
- This is a Phase 2 trial, so the vaccine is still being tested for safety and immune response. It may not provide enough protection or could cause side effects, and larger studies are needed before it can be widely used.

Exclusion Criteria: * A history of documented hypersensitivity to any component of the Trivalent Salmonella Conjugate Vaccine or of Typbar-TCV™ * A history of previous vaccination with any licensed or experimental typhoid vaccine A known history of diabetes, tuberculosis, malignancy, chronic kidney disease, cardiac disease, liver disease, progressive neurological disorder, poorly controlled seizure disorder, or a terminal illness based on participant interview and review of screening laboratory results. * Severe malnutrition: i.e., weight-for-length Z-score of less than - 3. * Receipt of any other investigational intervention in the last 6 months * Known HIV infection or other forms of immunocompromise * Receipt of systemic immunosuppressive medication including systemic corticosteroids * For Step 1A, for females of child-bearing potential, a positive pregnancy test at the time of enrollment. * For Step 1B, any female child who has experienced menarche. * Acute illness with or without fever (temperature \>38.0oC) is a temporary exclusion criterion. Enrollment may be postponed until 3 days after the illness has resolved. * Positive malaria test is a temporary exclusion criterion.
