Lancet Infect Dis . 2025 Mar; PMID: 40056922
Background: People with tuberculosis who complete treatment remain at risk of recurrent disease. The vaccine H56:IC31 has been shown to be safe and immunogenic in phase 1 and 2 studies,...

Lancet Microbe . 2024 Dec; 6(2):100961. PMID: 39709975
Background: Tuberculosis vaccine trials using disease as the primary endpoint are large, time consuming, and expensive. An earlier immunological measure of the protection against disease would accelerate tuberculosis vaccine development....

AIDS . 2024 Oct; 39(2):175-183. PMID: 39411889

BMC Health Serv Res . 2024 Sep; 24(1):1043. PMID: 39252005
