Brief Summary: While vaccination against cutaneous leishmaniasis a chronic ulcerating protozoan infection of the skin has been possible for decades using live parasites the production and storage of live cultures are difficult Since inoculation occasionally leads to severe infection most experts now advocate against their use We have shown excellent protection using a heat-killed vaccine that combines autoclaved leishmania antigen with recombinant human interleukin-12 rhIL-12 and aluminum hydroxide gel as adjuvants in a rhesus macaque model of disease To assess the safety and immunogenicity of this vaccine in humans we now propose a rhIL-12 dose escalation Phase III trial
