Previous studies have shown that the M72/AS01(E) candidate tuberculosis vaccine is immunogenic with a clinically acceptable safety profile in healthy and Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected adults. This phase II, observer-blind, randomised study compared the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of M72/AS01(E) in 3 cohorts: tuberculosis-naive adults (n = 80), adults previously treated for tuberculosis (n = 49), and adults who have completed the intensive phase of tuberculosis treatment (n = 13). In each cohort, 18-59-year-old adults were randomised (1: 1) to receive two doses of M72/AS01(E) (n = 71) or placebo (n = 71) and followed-up until six months post-dose 2. Safety and reactogenicity were assessed as primary objective.Recruitment in the study ended prematurely because of a high incidence of large injection site redness/swelling reactions in M72/AS01(E)-vaccinated adults undergoing tuberculosis treatment. No additional clinically relevant adverse events were observed, except one possibly vaccine-related serious adverse event (hypersensitivity in a tuberculosis-treated- M72/AS01(E) participant). Robust and persistent M72-specific humoral and polyfunctional CD4(+) T-cell-mediated immune responses were observed postM72/AS01(E) vaccination in each cohort. In conclusion, the M72/AS01(E) vaccine was immunogenic in adults previously or currently treated for tuberculosis, but further analyses are needed to explain the high local reactogenicity in adults undergoing tuberculosis treatment.
