Scientific titleComparison of immune responses elicited by oral and parenteral typhoid fever vaccines: a randomised controlled single centre study
Study objectivesEvaluation of the immune response as elicited by the oral Ty21a typhoid fever vaccine or a parenteral Vi-capsular polysaccharide vaccine using different immunological methods.
Ethics approval(s)Ethics Committee of Internal Medicine, Helsinki University Central Hospital, approved on the 8th April 2009. Amendment approved on the 4th September 2009.
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedProphylaxis of typhoid fever
InterventionBiological:
Group A: Three oral doses of Vivotif®; administered with an interval of 1 day
Group B: one intramuscular dose of Typherix®; will be administered

Total duration of follow-up: approximately four weeks
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Applicable
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Vivotif®, Typherix®
Primary outcome measureMeasurement of specific IgA- IgG- and IgM-secreting antibody cells in peripheral blood using ELISPOT, measured at day 7.
Secondary outcome measures1. To evaluate the expression of various homing receptors on antigen-specific antibody-secreting cells by separating the PBMCs with immunomagnetic cell sorting according to their HR expressions and by investigating specific ASC in the resulting subpopulations
2. Antibody analyses from serum (Widal test/ELISA)
3. Cell-mediated immune response

Measured at week 1 and 4.
