Brief Summary: Hookworms digest hemoglobin from erythrocytes for use as an energy source via a proteolytic cascade that begins with the aspartic protease, APR-1. Vaccination with recombinant APR-1 has protected animals from infection in challenge studies. This study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of two formulations of Na-APR-1 (M74) in healthy adult volunteers when co-administered with different concentrations of the immunostimulant GLA-AF.
Detailed Description: Open-label, dose-escalation phase 1 clinical trial in healthy, hookworm-naïve adults:

* Study site: George Washington Medical Faculty Associates, Washington, DC
* Number of participants: 40 in 2 cohorts of 20.

In Cohort 1 five (5) volunteers will receive 30 µg Na-APR-1 (M74) /Alhydrogel®, five (5) will receive 30 µg Na-APR-1 (M74)/Alhydrogel® plus 2.5 µg GLA-AF, and ten (10) will receive 30 µg Na-APR-1 (M74) /Alhydrogel® plus 5 µg GLA-AF. In Cohort 2 five (5) volunteers will receive 100 µg Na-APR-1 (M74)/Alhydrogel®, five (5) will receive 100 µg Na-APR-1 (M74) /Alhydrogel® plus 2.5 µg GLA-AF, and ten (10) will receive 100 µg Na-APR-1 (M74)/Alhydrogel® plus 5 µg GLA-AF.

The cohorts will be enrolled in a staggered fashion with safety data assessed prior to the Na-APR-1 dose escalation from 30 to 100 µg. In addition, within each cohort, vaccinations will be staggered such that formulations containing 0, 2.5, and 5 µg GLA-AF will be tested sequentially: for example, those receiving Na-APR-1 (M74)/Alhydrogel® in combination with 2.5 µg GLA-AF will be vaccinated no sooner than 3 days after the last volunteer is vaccinated with the formulation containing no GLA-AF, whereas those vaccinated with Na-APR-1 (M74)/Alhydrogel® plus 5 µg GLA-AF will be vaccinated no sooner than 7 days after the last one receives the 2.5 µg GLA-AF formulation.

* Immunization schedule: Study days 0, 56 and 112.
* Route: IM in the deltoid muscle.
* Doses of Na-APR-1 (M74) to be tested: 30 and 100 µg.
* Doses of Alhydrogel®: 240 and 800 µg for the 30 and 100 µg doses of Na-APR-1 (M74), respectively.
* Doses of GLA-AF to be tested: 2.5 µg and 5 µg.
* Study duration: 44 weeks (10 months) per study participant; total duration of the study estimated at approximately 13 months.
