About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Randomized, Observer-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose-Confirmation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity, and Immunogenicity of mRNA-1273 SARS-COV-2 Vaccine in Adults Aged 18 Years and Older

This clinical study will assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of 2 dose levels of mRNA-1273 Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS-COV-2) vaccine in adults 18 years of age or older.

Read the detailed description

This is a 3-part Phase 2a study, with Part A (Blinded Phase), Part B (Open-label Interventional Phase), and Part C (Rollover Proof of Concept).

Participants in Part A are blinded to their treatment assignment, with participants receiving either 2 active mRNA-1273 vaccine doses or placebo. Part B of the study is designed to offer participants to be unblinded so that participants who received placebo in Part A can request 2 doses of open-label mRNA-1273 vaccine. Additionally, participants who originally received 1 or 2 doses of mRNA-1273 (50 microgram [μg] or 100 μg vaccine) during Part A, will have the opportunity to request to receive a single booster dose of mRNA-1273.

Part C will be a proof-of-concept rollover study to evaluate a vaccine to treat mutations of SARS-CoV2, such as the S-protein of the B.1.351 variant. Part C will include approximately 60 participants, who are currently enrolled in Moderna's Phase 3 mRNA-1273-P301 study (NCT04470427), have already been unblinded, and have previously received 2 doses of mRNA-1273 at least 6 months earlier. At enrollment into Part C of this study, their participation in mRNA-1273-P301 study will be terminated. Part C will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of 2 dose levels (20 µg and 50 µg) of mRNA-1273.351 and mRNA-1273/mRNA-1273.351 mixture (50 µg total), given as a single booster dose.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Reactions (ARs)

    Solicited ARs, including local and systemic ARs were collected in the eDiary. Local ARs included: pain at injection site, erythema (redness) at injection site, swelling/induration (hardness) at injection site, and localized axillary swelling or tenderness ipsilateral to the injection arm. Systemic ARs included: headache, fatigue, myalgia (muscle aches all over the body), arthralgia (aching in several joints), nausea/vomiting, rash, body temperature (potentially fever), and chills. All solicited ARs (local and systemic) considered causally related to injection. ARs were graded 0-4 as reviewed and confirmed by Investigator; lower score indicates lower severity and a higher score indicates greater severity. Note, not all solicited ARs were considered adverse events (AEs). The Investigator reviewed whether the solicited AR was also to be recorded as an AE. A summary of SAEs and all nonserious AEs ("Other"), regardless of causality, is located in the Reported "Adverse Events" section.

    Measured: 7 days post-vaccination

  2. Number of Participants With Unsolicited AEs

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. A treatment-emergent AE (TEAE) was defined as any event not present before exposure to vaccine or any event already present that worsens in intensity or frequency after exposure. Any abnormal laboratory test result (hematology, clinical chemistry, or prothrombin time [PT]/partial thromboplastin time [PTT]) or other safety assessment (for example, electrocardiogram, radiological scan, vital sign measurement), including one that worsens from baseline and is considered clinically significant in the medical and scientific judgment of the Investigator. A summary of SAEs and all nonserious AEs ("Other") reported up to the end of the study (up to Month 15), regardless of causality, is located in the Reported "Adverse Events" section.

    Measured: Up to 28 days post-vaccination

  3. Number of Participants With Medically-Attended Adverse Events (MAAEs)

    An MAAE is an AE that leads to an unscheduled visit to a healthcare practitioner (HCP). A summary of SAEs and all nonserious AEs ("Other"), regardless of causality, is located in the Reported "Adverse Events" section.

    Measured: Up to Month 15

  4. Number of Participants With SAEs

    An SAE was defined as any AE that resulted in death, is life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in disability/permanent damage, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was an important medical event. A summary of SAEs and all nonserious AEs ("Other"), regardless of causality, is located in the Reported "Adverse Events" section.

    Measured: Up to Month 15

  5. Part A: Level of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-COV-2)-Specific Binding Antibody (bAb) as Measured by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)

    The geometric mean (GM) level of VAC58 spike immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies, as measured by ELISA specific to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is reported. Antibody values reported as below the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) were replaced by 0.5*LLOQ. Values that were greater than the upper limit of quantification (ULOQ) were converted to the ULOQ if actual values were not available. LLOQ was 1 and ULOQ was 2052. The 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated based on the t-distribution of the log-transformed values or the difference in the log-transformed values for GM value, respectively, then back transformed to the original scale for presentation.

    Measured: Days 1 (Baseline), 29, 43, 57, and 209

  6. Part B: Level of SARS-CoV-2-Specific bAb as Measured by ELISA

    The GM level of VAC65 spike IgG antibodies, as measured by ELISA specific to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is reported. Antibody values reported as below the LLOQ were replaced by 0.5*LLOQ. Values that were greater than the ULOQ are converted to the ULOQ. LLOQ was 1 and ULOQ was 2052. The 95% CIs were calculated based on the t-distribution of the log-transformed values or the difference in the log-transformed values for GM value, respectively, then back transformed to the original scale for presentation. The PP Set included participants with a study injection, required baseline data, had postinjection results at timepoint of primary interest for immunogenicity analysis, no major protocol deviations impacting immune response, and didn't have SARS-CoV-2.

    Measured: Days 1 (Baseline) and 29

  7. Part C: Level of SARS-CoV-2-Specific bAb as Measured by MSD

    The GM level of SARS-CoV-2 protein antibody against B.1.351, as measured by MSD MULTIPLEX is reported. Antibody values reported as below the LLOQ were replaced by 0.5*LLOQ. Values that were greater than the ULOQ are converted to the ULOQ. LLOQ was 18 and ULOQ was 4200000. The 95% CIs were calculated based on the t-distribution of the log-transformed values or the difference in the log-transformed values for GM value, respectively, then back transformed to the original scale for presentation.

    Measured: Days 1 (Baseline), 8, 15, and 29

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Biological: mRNA-1273 and mRNA-1273.351 in people with SARS-CoV-2, run by ModernaTX, Inc. at 8 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 23 inclusion and 31 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Dec 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Reactions (ARs) (time frame: 7 days post-vaccination). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04405076, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Dec 2022.
