In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Background: Vibrio cholerae causes millions of cholera cases and thousands of deaths annually. Vaccines are in short supply. There is no agreement on how to introduce new vaccines or evaluate their effectiveness, and the lack of 'correlates of protection' (CoPs) against cholera is a major obstacle to vaccine development. CoPs are markers of effective immune response to vaccination. While other infectious diseases have well established CoPs, none are widely accepted for cholera. Relevance: Lack of accepted CoPs impedes development of cholera vaccines, limiting progress toward improved vaccines, slowing the licensure of new vaccines, and contributing to the current vaccine shortage; an immediate obstacle to achieving reductions in cholera-related illness and deaths. The identification of new CoPs will speed the development of improved cholera vaccines and provide a pathway to their licens
