A Phase 1 interventional study of SF2a-TT15 vaccine and SF2a-TT15 vaccine + adjuvant in Shigellosis and Bacillary Dysentery, sponsored by Institut Pasteur. Completed at 1 site in Israel. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 45 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-04-11.

This is a first-in-human, single-center, single-blinded, observer-masked randomized, dose escalation (two doses), placebo-controlled study in healthy volunteers.
Subjects will be assigned to one of two cohorts.
Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive the 2 μg dose or 10 µg without or with alum or matching placebo, at a ratio of 3:1, as three single IM injections. There will be an interval of 28(±3) days) between each treatment.
The study will be conducted in a stepwise approach in which a "Pioneer" Group of 2 subjects (one receiving the active vaccine and one receiving the matching placebo) will receive the first injection. These subjects will remain in-house for a 24-hours medical observation after the first injection (not required in the subsequent injections) Once it has been established that there are no safety concerns in the non-adjuvanted "Pioneer" Groups (and after no less than 48 hrs), the next "Pioneer" group (one subject receiving adjuvanted 2 μg vaccine and one receiving the matching alum placebo) will be injected.
If no safety concerns are raised in this group also, after no less than 48 hrs, the rest of the subjects may receive the first injection.
61 studies on the registry are indexed under Dysentery, Bacillary; 6 are open to participants now.

Exclusion criteria
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Ran from Sep 2016 to primary completion in Jun 2017, 9 months.
Of 15 phase 1 interventional studies under Dysentery, Bacillary, half reached primary completion within 10 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 24. This study's 9 months is close to that.
