Dose Finding Study to Evaluate The Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of an Inactiviated, Adjuvanted SARS-CoV-2 Virus Vaccine Candidate Against Covid-19 in Healthy Subjects

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
SARS-CoV-2 Virus Infection
Interventions
Biological: VLA2001
Registration Number
NCT04671017
Lead Sponsor
Valneva Austria GmbH
Brief Summary

A multicenter, 3-arm randomized dose finding study in the UK to evaluate safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a vaccine candidate against Covid-19. 150 healthy volunteers will be enrolled and receive two shots of the vaccine candidate. All participants who receive two doses of the vaccine candidate will be invited to participate in the Booster phase.

Detailed Description

The multicenter, dose finding Phase 1/2 study starts off with an open-label, dose-escalation part, thereafter, during the double-blind part of study, participants will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive the low, medium or high dose of the vaccine (VLA2001). All participants will received a total of two vaccinations intramuscularly, on day 1 and day 22.

The first 5 participants in each dose group will receive VLA2001 open label, starting with the low dose of VLA2001. If no safety concerns are identified, the next 5 subjects will receive the medium dose of the vaccine. Again, if no safety issues are identified, 5 participants will be vaccinated with the high dose of the vaccine. A Data Safety and Monitoring Board (DSMB) will review accrued safety data before randomization of the remaining 135 subjects across all sites will be initiated.

All study participants will be followed up for safety and immunogenicity up to approximately 6 months after receiving their second vaccination.

This study was extended to investigate the tolerability, safety and immungenicity of a booster vaccination with VLA2001. All study participants, in the Booster phase, will be followed up for safety and immunogenicity up to 6 months after receiving their Booster vaccination.
