A Randomised Controlled Trial of Nasal Immunisation with Live Virulence Attenuated<i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>Strains using Human Infection Challenge
2023-04-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Rationale</h4> Pneumococcal pneumonia remains a global health problem. Pneumococcal colonisation increases local and systemic protective immunity, suggesting nasal administration of live attenuated S. pneumoniae strains could help prevent infections. <h4>Objectives</h4> We used a controlled human infection model to investigate whether nasopharyngeal colonisation with attenuated S. pneumoniae strains protected...
