Novel conjugate vaccines are generated by attaching various immune agonists to Chlamydia antigens using cell-free protein synthesis and click-chemistry. These vaccines are then tested in pre- clinical animal models for immunogenicity and efficacy. The top candidate(s) will progress to phase 1 clinical trials to determine safety and effectiveness against genital and ocular Chlamydia infections.
