Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Immunogenicity at day 14 as determined by OprF/I specific IgG antibody titer measured by ELISA in patients receiving IC43 or placebo [ Time Frame: Day 14 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Immunogenicity at day 7 [ Time Frame: Day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Rate of serious adverse events [ Time Frame: Day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Safety laboratory parameters [ Time Frame: Day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Systemic tolerability [ Time Frame: Day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Local tolerability [ Time Frame: Day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Detailed Description:

This is a randomized, placebo‐controlled, multi‐center, partially blinded [i.e., 100 mcg and 200 mcg IC43 with Al(OH)3,, respectively] and placebo, but unblinded for non‐adjuvanted IC43 [i.e., 100 mcg w/o Al(OH)3] phase 2 pilot study. The study population consists of male or female ICU patients with a need for mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours, aged between 18 and 80 years.

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years to 80 Years
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female patients aged between 18 and 80 years
  • Patients admitted to an ICU with a need for mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours at visit 0
  • At high risk for acquiring infection against P. aeruginosa at visit 0.
  • Patients who, as determined by the investigator, have a high probability of survival for at least 48 hours.
  • In females, either childbearing potential terminated by surgery or 1 year post menopausal, or a negative pregnancy test and the willingness of practicing a reliable methods of contraception
  • Written informed consent or waiver according to the national regulations

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known use of any other investigational or non-registered drug within 30 days prior to IC43 vaccination at Visit 0
  • Low severity of illness defined by an acute physiology score < 8 at visit 0
  • Patients < 6 months post organ transplantation
  • Severe thrombocytopenia or other coagulopathy which in the opinion of the investigator makes the patient unsuitable for intramuscular injection
  • Pregnancy, lactation
  • Persons who have been committed involuntarily to an institution, e.g. mental health facility or prison, will not participate in the study
