研究概览
简要总结
The study is a placebo controlled double blind,randomized trial aimed to see whether the killed oral cholera avccine (Shancol) that is available in India are more immunogenic if the dosing interval between the two doses are increased,as evident from earlier findings where it has been shown that there is higher immune response following first dose than after the second dose given at 2 weeks interval. For the main study the sample size is 356,aged 1-17 yeras and 18 yeras and above. Additional 30 volunteers will be recruited for exploration of alternate assays to see the immune response to this vaccine
