Other: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT05743335
Lead Sponsor
Immorna Biotherapeutics, Inc.
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about, test, and compare JCXH-221 in healthy volunteers. The main aims to answer are:

* To assess the safety and tolerability of the JCXH-221 vaccine in healthy adult subjects

* To identify an optimal dose for the JCXH-221 vaccine in healthy adult subjects

* To assess the humoral immunogenicity of the JCXH-221 vaccine in healthy adult subjects

* To characterize the cellular immunogenicity of the JCXH-221 vaccine in healthy adult subjects

Participants for Phase I will be randomized to either JCXH-221 or placebo. In Phase 2, participants will be randomized to either JCXH-221 or a FDA approved Active comparator.

Detailed Description

This is a phase 1/2 study looking to enroll a total of 262 patients.

For phase 1, two cohorts will be explored (18-64 age group and 65+ age group) for a total of 72 subjects. The subjects will be enrolled and randomized to either placebo or JCXH-221. A low dose of JCXH-221 will be explored vs placebo for each age group first. A high dose for those 2 cohorts will be explored once all safety data is reviewed.

Once all of Phase 1 data has been reviewed, Phase 2 enrollment will open. In this portion of the trial, subjects will be enrolled and randomized to either JCXH-221 or a FDA approved Active comparator (Pfizer, Moderna, etc.). A total of 190 patients will be enrolled.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
SAE frequencyDay 1- Day 365 (12 months)

Frequency of serious adverse events (SAEs) characterized by type, severity, duration, and drug relationship, from Day 1 (dosing day) until follow-up completion

Unsolicited treatment-emergent AE frequencyDay 1- Day 29 (28 days)

The proportion of subjects with at least 1 unsolicited treatment-emergent AE occurring up to 28 days after dosing (Day 29)

Medical AE frequencyDay 1- Day 365 (12 months)

Medically attended AEs (MAAEs) characterized by frequency, severity, duration, and drug relationship, from Day 1 until follow-up completion

Solicited systemic reaction frequencyDay 1- Day 8 (7 days)

Solicited systemic reactions characterized by frequency, severity, duration, and drug relationship, recorded up to 7 days after dosing (Day 8)

Injection site reactionDay 1- Day 8 (7 days)

Solicited local reactions at the injection site characterized by frequency, severity, and duration, recorded up to 7 days after dosing (Day 8)

AE frequencyDay 1- Day 29 (28 days)

Adverse events (AEs), including unsolicited AEs, characterized by frequency, severity, duration, and drug relationship, for up to 28 days after dosing (Day 29)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
SARS-CoV-2 antibody levelsDay 1- Day 181 (~6 months)

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-specific serum neutralizing antibody levels against ancestral and variant SARS-CoV-2 strains as compared to baseline (Day 1 predose) at 7, 14, and 28 days after dosing, and 2, 4, and 6 months after dosing:

* Geometric mean titers (GMTs) at each time point

* Geometric mean-fold rise (GMFR) from before vaccination to each subsequent time point after vaccination

* Seroresponse rate (SRR) defined as the proportion of subjects achieving ≥4-fold rise from before vaccination to each subsequent time point after vaccination

SARS-CoV-2 anti-receptor antibody levelsDay 1- Day 181 (~6 months)

SARS-CoV-2 anti-receptor binding domain (RBD) antibody levels as compared to baseline (Day 1 predose) at 7, 14, and 28 days after dosing, and 2, 4, and 6 months after dosing

* Geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) at each time point

* GMFR from before vaccination to each subsequent time point after vaccination

* SRR defined as the proportion of subjects achieving ≥4-fold rise from before vaccination to each subsequent time point after vaccination
