About this trial
The goal of this phase 1/2a, randomized, observer-blind, age-descending, dose-finding trial is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a quadrivalent synthetic oligosaccharide-based Shigella vaccine (adjuvanted IP-QSV) in adults, children, and infants in Mali. This first-in-human study is intended to obtain initial data on the safety of the adjuvanted IP-QSV vaccine and its effect on immune responses in a Shigella-endemic region.
Eligibility criteria

Disqualifiers
Known history or allergy to investigational vaccine components or other medications, or any other allergies deemed by the investigator to increase the risk of an adverse event if they were to participate in the trial
Individuals with major congenital abnormalities, developmental disorders, genetic defects, or severe malnutrition, among other conditions which in the opinion of investigator may affect the participant's participation in the study
