Clinical Study of Recombinant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Allergen ESAT6-CFP10 on Healthy People Aged 18-65(III-healthy)

Summary

The investigators recruit about 1800 cases participants who has signed ICF,then do some physical examinations for these people, including ecg, X-ray, HIV,blood pressure, specific gamma-interferon detection ,collection of medical history and the like .These subjects who meet the standard are considered as study population I. Population I are injected intradermally with ESAT6-CFP10 and Tuberculin purified protein derivative(TB-PPD) at different arm of the same subject and get at least 360 participants whose three kinds of detection result are all negative and are considered as study population II.Then,they are immune to the Bacillus Calmette -Guerin(BCG) vaccine or the placebo of the BCG.Do specific gamma-interferon detection before the skin test,then inject intradermally with ESAT6-CFP10 and TB-PPD at different arm of the same subject 12 weeks after immunity.
