- Brief Summary
The study is a randomized, double-blind Phase II study. It will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of SCTV01E-1. Approximately 400 participants aged 18 years and older will be enrolled in this study. 160 participants who have not been vaccinated with any COVID-19 vaccine will be enrolled in Cohort 1 and randomly assigned to receive SCTV01E-1 or SCTV01E in a ratio of 1:1. 240 participants who were fully vaccinated with 2 or 3 doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines at least three months ago will be enrolled in Cohort 2 and randomly assigned to receive SCTV01E-1 or SCTV01E in a ratio of 1:1.
- Detailed Description
The study is a randomized, double-blind Phase II study. It will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of SCTV01E-1. Approximately 400 participants aged 18 years and older will be enrolled in this study.
160 participants who have not been vaccinated with any COVID-19 vaccine will be enrolled in Cohort 1 and randomly assigned to the Group SCTV01E-1 and Group SCTV01E in a ratio of 1:1. All participants will receive 3 doses of vaccinations: Vaccination 1 on D0, Vaccination 2 on D28 and Vaccination 3 on D150. Participants in Group SCTV01E-1 will receive 3 doses of SCTV01E-1, and participants in Group SCTV01E will receive 3 doses of SCTV01E.
240 participants who were fully vaccinated with 2 or 3 doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines at least three months ago will be enrolled in Cohort 2 and randomly assigned to Group SCTV01E-1 and Group SCTV01E in a ratio of 1:1. All participants will receive 2 doses of vaccinations: Vaccination 1 on D0 and Vaccination 2 on D120. Participants in Group SCTV01E-1 will receive 2 doses of SCTV01E-1, and participants in Group SCTV01E will receive 2 doses of SCTV01E.

- A history of allergic reactions to any vaccines or drugs, such as allergy, urticaria, severe skin eczema, dyspnea, laryngeal edema, and angioneurotic edema;
- Immunocompromised patients suffering from immunodeficiency diseases, significant diseases, or immune diseases (including Guillain-Barre Syndrome [GBS], systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, asplenia or splenectomy caused by any circumstances, and other immune diseases that may have an impact on immune response in the investigator's opinion), etc;
- Long-term use of immunosuppressant therapy or immunomodulatory drugs for >14 days within the six months prior to enrollment. Whereas short-term (≤14 days) use of oral, inhaled and topical steroids are allowed;
- Those who have a history of HIV or tested positive for HIV;
- For Cohort 1, participants received any drugs or vaccines used to prevent COVID-19; for Cohort 2, participants received other drugs or vaccines used to prevent COVID-19 besides inactivated COVID-19 vaccines;
- A history of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), or related vaccination;
- A medical or family history of seizure, epilepsy, encephalopathy and psychosis;
- Presence of severe or uncontrollable cardiovascular diseases, or severe or uncontrollable disorders related to endocrine system, blood and lymphatic system, liver and kidney, respiratory system, metabolic and skeletal systems, or malignancies (skin basal cell carcinoma and carcinoma in-situ of cervix are exceptions and will not be excluded), such as severe heart failure, severe pulmonary heart disease, unstable angina, liver failure, or uremia;
- Contraindications for intramuscular injection or intravenous blood sampling, including thrombocytopenia and other blood coagulation disorders;
- Patients on antituberculosis therapy;
- Participants who received any immunoglobulin or blood products in the previous 3 months before enrollment, or plan to receive similar products during the study;
- Participants who received other investigational drugs within 1 month before the study vaccination;
- Participants who have acute illness, such as acute onset of chronic heart failure, acute sore throat, hypertensive encephalopathy, acute pneumonia, acute renal insufficiency, acute cholecystitis;
- Participants vaccinated with influenza vaccine within 14 days or with other vaccines within 28 days before the study vaccination;
- Those who donated blood or had blood loss (≥450 mL) within 3 months before the vaccination or plan to donate blood during the study period;
- Those who are pregnant or breast-feeding or plan to be pregnant during the study period;
- Those who plan to donate ovum or sperms during the study period;
- Those who cannot follow the trial procedures, or cannot cooperate to complete the study due to planned relocation or long-term outing;
- Those unsuitable for participating in the clinical trial as determined by the investigator because of other abnormalities that are likely to confuse or confound the study results, or non-conformance with the maximal benefits of the participants.
