About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial, to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of the COVID-19 Vaccine, a Measles Vector-based Vaccine Candidate Against COVID-19 in Healthy Volunteers Consisting of an Unblinded Dose Escalation and a Blinded Treatment Phase

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, two center, Phase I trial in healthy adult volunteer participants consisting of two phases, an unblinded dose escalation and a double blind treatment phase to investigate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a novel measles-vector based vaccine candidate against SARS-CoV-2 infection (TMV-083/V-591).

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, interventional, randomized, Phase I trial comparing two different dose levels and immunization regimen of a novel COVID-19 vaccine candidate (TMV-083/V-591) against SARS-CoV-2 infection, consisting of two phases, an unblinded dose escalation and a double-blind treatment phase, to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity.

90 subjects will be enrolled, 30 per cohort in three cohorts, each cohort comprising 24 vaccinees and 6 placebo recipients. Subjects will either receive two immunizations with a low dosage vaccine (Cohort A), two immunization with a high dosage vaccine (Cohort B), a single immunization with the high dosage vaccine (Cohort C) or placebo (randomized to all three cohorts).

As safety precaution, the study will begin with the enrolment of a small group of 6 sentinel subjects (2 Sentinel Groups, three subjects each of cohorts A and B) each of whom will receive the vaccine on days 0 and 28 in an unblinded and non-randomized manner.

Thereafter, 84 remaining participants will be enrolled in a double-blinded, randomized manner into one of the three cohorts (A, B or C). Placebo will be applied to blind the different regimen.

After the screening visit, participants will be expected to return to the investigational clinical site for 8 visits (9 for the sentinel groups) up to day 91 for immunogenicity sample collection and up to day 210 for safety assessments.

Samples for measles shedding will be collected from subjects of the Sentinel Groups (unblinded regiment in cohort A and B). Body fluids including saliva, nasal swab, urine and whole blood will be collected from day 0 up to day 42.

The investigator and site personnel assessing Adverse Events (AEs), all participants, as well as the sponsor's representatives involved in the monitoring and conduct of the study will be unblinded to which vaccine was administered within the unblinded treatment phase. Only the site personnel performing randomization, preparation and administration of Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) will be unblinded within the randomized double-blinded treatment phase.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Two COVID-19 vaccine candidate (TMV-083/V-591) administrations - Low dose, Two COVID-19 vaccine candidate (TMV-083/V-591) administrations - High dose and One COVID-19 vaccine candidate (TMV-083/V-591) administration - High dose in people with COVID-19, run by Institut Pasteur at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 22 inclusion and 25 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 18 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Belgium, France. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

To assess the safety and tolerability of the COVID-19 vaccine following one or two consecutive intramuscular injections in healthy volunteers (time frame: up to Day 210). 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 NCT04497298, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Feb 2022.
