The present trial is a phase I first in human, double blind, parallel and placebo controlled trial of SSI's adjuvanted chlamydia vaccine CTH522: CTH522-CAF01 (CAF01 is an adjuvant system) and CTH522-Al(OH)3. The trial will be conducted at Imperial College Research site in the United Kingdom.
Subjects are randomly assigned to one of the following three treatment groups in a ratio of 3:3:1.
This trial consisted of 10 visits and 5 telephonic interviews
