About this study

Official title: Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of a Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (Sf9 Cell) in Chinese Healthy Population Aged 18 Years and Older: A Phase I, Single-center, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind Study

This is a phase I, single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, to evaluate safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 cell) in Chinese healthy population aged 18 years and older. After randomization, the trial for each subject will last for approximately 13 months. Screening period is 1 week prior to randomization (Day -7 to Day -1), and each dose of either SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 Cell) or placebo will be given intramuscularly (IM) on Day 0 and Day 28 for a two-dose regimen, or on Day 0, Day 14, and Day 28 for a three-dose regimen. Subjects who are ≥18 years old and ≤ 55 years old will be enrolled in adult group, and healthy elderly population who are >55 years old will be enrolled in elderly group. After adult group completes the follow-up 7 days after first vaccination, elderly group will be recruited.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I, single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, to evaluate safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 cell) in Chinese healthy population aged 18 years and older. Healthy adults who are ≥18 years old and ≤55 years old will be enrolled in the adult group and healthy elderly population who are >55 years old will be enrolled in the elderly group. To ensure the enrollment of healthy subjects, screening tests (hematology, biochemistry, and urinalysis) will be performed prior to the vaccination. In each age group, there are three regimen cohort: middle-dose at 0, 28 schedule, high-dose at 0, 28 schedule, and high-dose at 0,14,28 schedule. The subjects in regimen cohort will be randomized to receive vaccines or placebos at a ratio of 3:1.

The study will set up an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) to conduct overall supervision. The IDMC is required to review the unblinded data when a significant event or risk occurs in the study that might cause the study to be suspended.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Two doses of middle-dose recombinant SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 Cell) at the schedule of day 0, 28, Two doses of high-dose recombinant SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 Cell) at the schedule of day 0, 28 and Three doses of high-dose recombinant SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 Cell) at the schedule of day 0, 14, 28 in people with COVID-19, run by Jiangsu Province Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at 1 site in China.

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 11 inclusion and 24 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 1 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Occurrence of adverse reactions (AR) within 7 days after each dose of the recombinant SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (Sf9 cell) or placebo. (time frame: 7 days after each dose.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 1 Jun 2022.
