Biological E’s CORBEVAX vaccine clinical study for protection against Covid-19 disease.
Phase 2/3
Completed
- Conditions
- Active immunization for the prevention of COVID-19 disease
- Registration Number
- CTRI/2021/06/034014
- Lead Sponsor
- Biological ELimited
- Brief Summary
This is a prospective, open-label, singlearm, phase II seamlessly followed by Phase III clinical study design toevaluate the immunogenicity and safety of CORBEVAX vaccine for ProtectionAgainst COVID-19 Disease When administered to COVID-19-Negative Adult Subjects between18-80 years of age.
Atotal of 1268 male and non-pregnant female adult, from moderate to high-riskpopulation with and without comorbidities will be enrolled across both phasesof the study. Subjects must be RT-PCR negative to SARS-CoV-2 antigen. A total of 100 subjects, aged 18 to 55 years, will be enrolled in PhaseII for safety assessment and a total of 1168 subjects, aged 18 to 80 years,will be enrolled in Phase III to receive BioE’s SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (CORBEVAX).
The study will be conducted in compliance with GSR 227(E), ICH andIndian good clinical practice guidelines in force at the time of study conduct.

- 6.Female subject of child bearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test (UPT), and willingness to avoid becoming pregnant through use of an effective method of contraception or abstinence from the time of study enrolment until six weeks after the last dose of vaccination in the study.
- 7.Male subject, who is sexually active, must agree to use double-barrier contraception (e.g. condom with spermicide) with his female partner during the study period.
- Male subject should also agree to avoid semen donation or providing semen for in-vitro fertilization during the study duration.
- 8.Subject agrees not to participate in another clinical trial at any time during the total study period.

Exclusion Criteria
- 1.History of vaccination with any investigational or approved vaccine against COVID-19 disease.
- 2.Subject living in the same household as that of any active COVID-19 positive individual at the time of enrolment.
- 3.History of receipt of any licensed vaccine within 1 month prior to screening, likely to impact on interpretation of the trial data (e.g., influenza vaccines); 4.Subjects with any clinically significant abnormal haematology and biochemical laboratory parameters tested at screening as judged by the investigator.
- 5.Subjects with Body temperature of ≥100.4°F (>38.0°C) or symptoms of an acute illness at the time of screening or prior to vaccination.

- 7.Subjects with known current or chronic history of any of the following conditions, likely to affect participation in the study: i.severe psychiatric conditions; ii.any bleeding disorder (e.g. factor deficiency, coagulopathy or platelet disorder); iii.allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study vaccine (BE CORBEVAX vaccine); iv.neurological illness, and any other serious chronic illness requiring hospital specialist supervision.
- 8.Subjects requiring chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days in total) of immunosuppressant (e.g. corticosteroids, cytotoxic drugs or antimetabolites, etc.) or other immune-modifying drugs (e.g. interferons) during the period starting six months prior to the first vaccine dose including use of any blood products.
- i.For corticosteroids, this will mean prednisone ≥0.5 mg/kg/day, or equivalent.
- ii.Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
- iii.Receipt of prohibited concomitant medication that may jeopardize the safety of the participant or interpretation of the data.
- 9.Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).
- 10.Any medical condition that in the judgment of the investigator would make study participation unsafe.
- 11.Planned use of any investigational or non-registered product other than the study vaccine during the trial period or 3 months prior to enrolment.
- 13.Individuals who are part of the study team or close family members of individuals conducting the study.
