Study of the Safety and Immunogenicity of Reduced Doses of the US Yellow Fever Vaccine
RandomizedSequentialOpen-labelHealth-services research
Summary
This is an open-label, randomized, exploratory study to evaluate the human immune response to reduced subcutaneous (SQ) dosing of Yellow Fever vaccine compared to the standard FDA approved subcutaneous vaccination dose. The current dose of the US FDA licensed Yellow Fever vaccine is approximately 55,000 plaque-forming unit(s) (PFU) in 0.5 mL administered SQ. Using the licensed dosage as standard, investigators are evaluating reduced doses of 1/5th (0.10 mL) and 1/10th (0.05 mL) standard Yellow Fever vaccine (YF-VAX).
