Cohorts 4 to 8: previous immunisation with tetanus toxoid (TT) but not within 6 months prior to the screening visit as reported by the volunteer.
Cohorts 4 to 8: anti-TT immunoglobulin G (IgG) response > 0.1 IU/mL and ≤ 50 IU/mL at screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects fulfilling any of the following exclusion criteria are not eligible for entry into the study.

Donated or lost more than 500 mL of blood or plasma within 3 months of screening.
Prescription drug taken within 2 weeks of screening or likely to be taken during the trial.
Live immunisation within 3 months of screening or plans to receive such immunisation during the clinical trial or for a period of 6 months after the end of the trial.
Taking or likely to take over-the-counter medication, including herbal medicines, that in the opinion of the principal investigator (or medically qualified designee) may make participation unsafe for the subject or interfere with trial evaluations.

Cannot communicate adequately or cannot commit to full participation in all trial procedures.

For Cohorts 4 to 8:

Confirmed previous exposure to immunocyanins, such as keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH);
