- Conditions
- COVID-19 Disease
- Interventions
- Biological: BBIBP-CorV - Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Vero cell)Biological: influenza season quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (Flu Quadrivalent)
- Registration Number
- NCT04984408
- Lead Sponsor
- International Vaccine Institute
- Brief Summary
To expand the access and delivery of COVID-19 Vaccines in Africa (ECOVA), the investigators will conduct a phase 3, individually randomized, observer-blind, controlled (influenza vaccine) trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the BBIBP-CorV vaccine against any severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV- 2) infection among adults 18 years and older. The BBIBP-CorV vaccine is an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Vero cell) manufactured by the Beijing Institute of Biological Products (BIBP), China National Biotec Group (CNBG), Sinopharm, Beijing, People's Republic of China and received emergency use authorization (EUA) from World Health Organization (WHO).
- Detailed Description
The investigators will conduct a randomized, observer-blind, controlled, phase 3 trial will be conducted to assess the safety, immunogenicity and efficacy of two doses of intramuscular BBIBP-CorV vaccine, followed by a booster dose, in adults 18 years of age and older. . Study Arms 1 and 2 will have two groups: group 1 - HIV-uninfected receiving BBIBP-CorV or Flu Quadrivalent; group 2 - HIV-infected receiving BBIBP-CorV or Flu Quadrivalent. Arm 3 will have 1 group - HIV-uninfected co-administration group receiving both vaccines. The randomization will be stratified by HIV status. Active surveillance for covid-19 will be carried out and immunogenicity will be assessed for a subset of population.

Arm 3: BBIBP-CorV and Flu Quadrivalent (Co-administration) BBIBP-CorV - Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Vero cell) Arm 3 will have 1 group - HIV-uninfected co-administration group receiving both study vaccines. Arm 2: Flu Quadrivalent influenza season quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (Flu Quadrivalent) Study Arms 2 will have two groups: group 1 - HIV-uninfected receiving Flu Quadrivalent; group 2 - HIV-infected receiving Flu Quadrivalent. The Flu Quadrivalent is recommended as a single dose for adults, the second and the booster doses for Arm 2 will be placebo.
