About this trial

The TokomezaPlus Ebola trial is a phase I/II double blind randomised clinical trial designed to assess the safety and immunogenicity of candidate SUDV vaccines in Uganda during the inter outbreak period. Uganda is prone to Ebola virus disease outbreaks especially those caused by the Ebola Sudan (SUDV) species. TokomezaPlus Ebola Vaccine trial protocol has two main components: a) Safety b) Immunogenicity and is designed to create a living protocol that will be used to study the safety and immunogenicity of SUDV-candidate vaccines in the East African EVD-prone countries.
