They affect the poorest of the poor and present a severe barrier to socio-economic development. Caused by infection with one of several species of Leishmania parasite, these diseases occur in 98 countries worldwide and can be broadly classified as tegumentary leishmaniases (TL; affecting the skin and mucosa) and visceral leishmaniasis (VL; affecting internal organs). Worldwide, over 1 million reported cases of TL and 0.5 million reported cases of VL occur each year. Whereas TL are chronic and non-life-threatening, VL is responsible for over 20,000 deaths per year, second only to malaria amongst parasites with regard to mortality. Collectively, approximately 2.4 million disability-adjusted life years are lost to the leishmaniases. No vaccines are currently licensed for any form of human leishmaniasis and the drug arsenal is limited and increasingly compromised by drug resistance.\n\n.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '50 Years', 'minimumAge': '12 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\nThe patient volunteer must be:\n\n* Aged 12 to 50 years on the day of screening\n* Have had VL and have been cured following a standard regimen of SSG / PM\n* Females must be unmarried, single, or widowed\n* Willing and able to give written informed consent\n* For adolescents aged 12 to 17 years on the day of screening written informed consent from a parent must be obtained.\n\nAll Participants\n\n* Uncomplicated VL responsive to SSG / PM treatment\n* Have relatively normal blood values in the setting of VL, defined as hemoglobin \\>5.0 g/dL, white blood cells \\>1.0 x10(9)/L, platelets \\>40 x10(9)/L, liver function tests \\< x5 normal, Creatinine \\<1.5 mg/dL\n* Available for the duration of the study\n* Without any other significant health problems as determined by medical history, physical examination, results of screening tests and the clinical judgment of a medically qualified Clinical Investigator\n* Negative for malaria on blood smear\n* Judged, in the opinion of a medically qualified Clinical Investigator, to be able and likely to comply with all study requirements as set out in the protocol\n* Negative for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C\n* For females only, willing to undergo urinary pregnancy tests on the day of screening, on the day of vaccination (prior to vaccination) and 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after vaccination.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\nThe volunteer may not enter the study if any of the following apply:\n\n* Has HIV/VL coinfection\n* Has had previous treatment for VL with relapse\n* Receipt of a live attenuated vaccine within 60 days or other vaccine within 14 days of screening\n* Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the planned administration of the vaccine candidate\n* History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine or a history of severe or multiple allergies to drugs or pharmaceutical agents\n* Any history of severe local or general reaction to vaccination as defined as\n* Local: extensive, indurated redness and swelling involving most of the antero-lateral thigh or the major circumference of the arm, not resolving within 72 hours\n* General: fever ≥ 39.5°C within 48 hours, anaphylaxis, bronchospasm, laryngeal oedema, collapse, convulsions or encephalopathy within 48 hours\n* Females - pregnancy, less than 12 weeks postpartum, lactating or willingness/intention to become pregnant during the study and for 3 months following vaccination.\n* Seropositive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or Hepatitis C (antibodies to hepatitis C virus)\n* Significant abnormal finding (in the setting of VL, see definitions in Inclusion criteria) on entry biochemistry or haematology blood tests or urinalysis\n* Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient state, including HIV infection;
