Sponsor's own description

This study aims to address the paucity of accurate incidence data of diarrheal diseases associated with Shigella in Zambia and Burkina Faso. Given the limited feasibility of the current complex diagnostic methods used to detect Shigella in endemic and developing countries due to the costs, the none availability of reagents and a requirement of expensive and complex machinery, we suggest to use a rapide, easy-to-use, cost-effective, and robust Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) based rapid tool, the Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) based diagnostic assay (ES-RLDT). This baseline study will enable us to generate an accurate estimate of Shigella incidence so as to inform future trials' designs of an oral vaccine development (ShigOraVax) in Burkina Faso and Zambia. This project is part of the EDCTP2 programme supported by the European Union under grant agreement "No RIA2018V-2308
