Summary

The primary purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of one oral dose of a human rotavirus vaccine, RV3-BB, in three successive age groups starting with adult men aged 18-50 years, progressing to children aged 3-8 years and then infants 6-8 weeks. Assessing rotavirus immunity, via serologic markers and faecal extracts, is a secondary objective.

Each 1 ml of live attenuated human rotavirus vaccine, RV3-BB, (at a concentration of 8.3 x 10^6 focus formatting units (FFU)/ml) is a cell free solution containing attenuated rotavirus particles in a 10% sucrose/cell culture medium. When vaccine administered: Cohort 1: 1 ml oral dose administered once to male adults aged 18-50 years inclusive; Cohort 2: 1 ml oral dose administered once to male and female children aged 3-8 years inclusive; Cohort 3: 1 ml oral dose administered once to male and female infants aged 6-8 weeks inclusive. Mode of administration: Oral sterile aqueous solution for oral administration.
