Abnormal laboratory values include haematological abnormalities (haemoglobin level, white blood cells and platelets) and biochemical abnormalities (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and creatinine). Grading was defined based on the Food and Drug Administration [FDA], 2007. Guidance for Industry, Toxicity Grading Scale for Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials. Alanine Aminotransferase = ALA; Aspartate Aminotransferase = ASP; Creatinine = CREA; Hemoglobin (Change from baseline) = HEM (baseline); Hemoglobin (decrease) = HEM (decrease); Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) (Decrease) = WBC (decrease); Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) (Increase) = WBC (increase); Platelets = PLA; Total Bilirubin = BIL.
Desciptive Statistics of the Frequency of M72-specific CD4+ T-cells Expressing Any Combination of Immune Markers in the Safety and Immune Sub-cohort
The frequency of M72-specific CD4 + T-cells per million cells were identified after in vitro stimulation expressing any combination of immune markers ( Interleukin-2 (IL-2), cluster of differentiation 40-ligand (CD40-L), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) and interferon-gamma (IFN-) after background subtraction for each treatment group.
Desciptive Statistics of the Frequency of M72-specific CD8+ T-cells Expressing Any Combination of Immune Markers in the Safety and Immune Sub-cohort
The frequency of M72-specific CD8 + T-cells per million cells were identified after in vitro stimulation expressing any combination of immune markers ( Interleukin-2 (IL-2), cluster of differentiation 40-ligand (CD40-L), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) and interferon-gamma (IFN-) after background subtraction for each treatment group.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis M72-specific antibody geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) with exact 95% Confidence Interval (CI) were measured by Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA) and expressed in ELISA unit per milliliter (EU/mL). The cut-off of the assay was 2.8 EU/mL. The Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) calculations were performed by taking the anti-log of the mean of the log10 concentration transformations. For descriptive statistics purposes only, antibody concentrations below the cut-off value of the assay was given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off value for the purpose of GMC calculation.
Number of Seropositive Subjects for M72 Antibodies Measured by ELISA in the Safety and Immune Sub-cohort
A seronegative subject was a subject whose antibody concentration was below 2.8 EU/mL, while a seropositive subject was a subject whose antibody concentration was greater than or equal to 2.8 EU/mL.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the protective efficacy of two doses of GSK Biologicals' candidate TB vaccine against pulmonary TB, as compared to placebo. The efficacy will be evaluated in adults living in TB endemic countries and aged 18 - 50 years because pulmonary TB occurs frequently in these countries and age range. In addition, the safety and immunogenicity of the candidate tuberculosis vaccine will be evaluated in a subset of volunteers.
Detailed Description
Case Definitions: • First case definition: A subject with clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB disease, with MTB complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken before initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and/or microbiological culture and confirmed HIV-negative at the time of TB diagnosis. • Second case definition: A subject with clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB disease, with MTB complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken before initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and confirmed HIV-negative at the time of TB diagnosis. • Third case definition: A subject with clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB disease, with MTB complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken up to four weeks after initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and/or microbiological culture and confirmed HIV-negative at the time of TB diagnosis. • Fourth case definition: A subject with clinical suspicion of pulmonary TB disease, with MTB complex identified from a sputum specimen, taken up to four weeks after initiation of TB treatment, by Xpert MTB/RIF and/or microbiological culture. • Fifth case definition: A subject for whom a clinician has diagnosed TB disease and has decided to treat the patient with TB treatment.
