Pilot Clinical Trial, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo Controlled and Masked to Evaluate the Tolerability and Immunogenicity of Nyaditum Resae® Probiotic Administered to Adults With or Without Latent Tuberculosis Infection

ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2015

47 participants

Abstract

This is a double-blind, masked, compared with placebo clinical trial in healthy volunteers with or without tuberculosis infection. This trial aims to study the effect of the probiotic Nyaditum resae® at the level of specific Regulatory T cells (Treg) memory cells one week after the first administration and the global tolerability of the treatment. Nyaditum resae® is a preparation in the form of drinkable vials containing heat-killed environmental mycobacteria. The overall objective of the study is the effect of Nyaditum resae® on immunity, which could reduce the risk of developing active tuberculosis.

Conditions: Tuberculosis.

Primary outcome: Change from Baseline in Specific Treg memory cells at week 1; Global tolerability of Nyaditum resae ®, proportion of participants with adverse events related to study treatment..

Enrollment: 47 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 47 participants or records.
