Protection associated with a TB vaccine is linked to increased frequency of Ag85A-specific CD4+ T cells but no increase in avidity for Ag85A

Highlights • BCG-Ad5-85A protection was associated with higher CD4+ Ag85A-specific cell frequency. • BCG-Ad5-85A protection was not associated with increased CD4+ Ag85A-specific avidity. • BCG-Ad5-85A protection was not associated with epitope spreading.
