Official title Immunogenicity of Yellow Fever Vaccine 17D in Adults With Prior 17D Vaccination
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05859490
What this study is testing
What is 17D?
17D is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily, being studied as a potential treatment for yellow fever.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the immune response to the yellow fever vaccine 17D in adults with prior 17D vaccination. The main questions this study aims to answer are: how does prior vaccination affect antibody responses to re-vaccination?
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
