VLA2001 Booster in Adult Participants After Priming With mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine and/or Natural SARS-CoV-2 Infection
- Conditions
- SARS-CoV-2 Infection
- Interventions
- Biological: VLA2001
- Registration Number
- NCT05364242
- Lead Sponsor
- Valneva Austria GmbH
- Brief Summary
This is a clinical study to investigate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a VLA2001 booster vaccination in participants aged 18 years and older. In total approximately 275 participants are planned to be enrolled.
- Detailed Description
This is a multicentric, open-label, phase 2/3 study to investigate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a VLA2001 booster vaccination standard dose in adults aged ≥18 to ≤50 years or double dose in volunteers aged \>50 years.
Volunteers who are either generally healthy or are with a stable medical condition will be enrolled. In total approximately 275 participants were planned to be enrolled. It was planned to enroll approximately 25% of participants who are above 65 years into the cohorts with participants above 50 years of age.
Cohorts 1B, 1C, 1D, 2B and 2D have been fully recruited. Recruitment for Cohorts 1A, 2A, 2C, and 3, has been stopped in December 2022 due to very low recruitment rates in these cohorts.
The revised study design ensures a safety follow-up of at least 6 months after the VLA2001 vaccination for all enrolled study participants.
Immunogenicity will be assessed at Visits 1 (pre-booster, Day 1) and Visit 2 (Day 15, 14 days after the booster vaccination).
Safety will be assessed up to Visit 3a (Day 180) or up to an End of Study Visit for participants who have already had their Day 180 visit before the current study amendment.

- Have never received any SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and
- Have experienced a natural SARS-CoV-2 infection
Will receive a double dose of VLA2001 (1.0 mL), if:

- Have experienced a natural SARS-CoV-2 infection
ALL PARTICIPANTS:
-
Participant is pregnant or planning to become pregnant within 3 months after booster administration
-
History of allergy to any component of the vaccine
-
Participant had close contact to persons with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection within 30 days prior to screening (Visit 0)
-
Participant has participated in a clinical study involving an investigational SARS-CoV-2 vaccine or has received or plans to receive a licensed SARS-CoV-2 vaccine during the duration of the study
-
Significant infection or other acute illness, including fever > 37.8 °C within 48 hours before vaccination
-
Positive SARS-CoV-2 rapid Antigen test result during screening or Visit 1
-
Participant has a known or suspected defect of the immune system, such as participants with congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, including infection with HIV, status post organ transplantation or immuno-suppressive therapy within 4 weeks prior to the expected day of vaccination (Visit 1).
-
Participant has a history of malignancy in the past 5 years other than squamous cell or basal cell skin cancer. If there has been surgical excision or treatment more than 5 years ago that is considered to have achieved a cure, the participant may be enrolled.

History of clinically significant bleeding disorder (e.g., factor deficiency, coagulopathy, or platelet disorder), or prior history of significant bleeding or bruising following IM injections or venepuncture
-
Severe and uncontrolled ongoing autoimmune or inflammatory disease, History of Guillain-Barre syndrome or any other demyelinating condition
-
Any other significant disease, disorder or finding which in the opinion of the investigator may significantly increase the risk to the volunteer because of participation in the study, affect the ability of the volunteer to participate in the study or impair interpretation of the study
Prior/concomitant therapy:
-
Receipt of immunoglobulin or another blood product within the 3 months before expected day of vaccination (Visit 1) in this study or those who expect to receive immunoglobulin or another blood product during this study
-
Receipt of medications to treat or prevent COVID-19 (except licensed mRNA vaccine for participants of cohort 1 and 2)
