High dose aerosol challenge with Mycobacterium tuberculosis fails to overcome BCG vaccination-induced protection in cynomolgus macaques of Chinese origin: implications of natural resistance for TB vaccine evaluation.
2021-03-22
Abstract excerpt
This study describes the use of cynomolgus macaques of Chinese origin (CCM) to evaluate the efficacy and immunogenicity of the BCG vaccine against high dose aerosol Mycobacterium tuberculosis challenge. Progressive disease developed in three of the unvaccinated animals within ten weeks of challenge, whereas all six vaccinated animals controlled disease for 26 weeks. Three unvaccinated animals limited disease progr...
