Anti-CsbD Bovine IgG(Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health)

This is a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to investigate whether hyperimmune bovine milk IgG products specific for CsbD and CS17, protect subjects against diarrhea upon challenge with a CS-17-ETEC strain LSN03-016011/A. The study will also evaluate safety and tolerability of these bovine milk IgG products and describe the immune responses following challenge.
The primary study objectives are: 1) Assess safety of the anti-CsbD and anti-CS17 bovine milk IgG among healthy adult volunteers when orally administered three times a day over 7 days. 2) Determine efficacy of the anti-CsbD bovine milk IgG preparation against ETEC diarrhea upon challenge with CS17-ETEC, and 3)Determine efficacy of the anti-CS17 bovine milk IgG preparation against ETEC diarrhea upon challenge with CS17-ETEC. A secondary objective is to determine efficacy of the anti-CsbD and anti-CS17 bovine milk IgG preparations against moderate to severe ETEC diarrhea upon challenge with CS17-ETEC.
