About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Dose-Comparison, Multi-Center Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of the SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Candidate MVC-COV1901 in Elderly Adults

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901 vaccine in two different dose forms in participants who are generally healthy or with stable pre-existing health conditions.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase II, prospective, randomized, double-blinded (investigator/site staff and participants; Sponsor open), dose-comparison, multi-center study. Participants who are generally healthy or with stable pre-existing health conditions will be randomized, stratified by comorbidity. All eligible participants will be randomized to receive 2 doses of either High-dose or Mid-dose of MVC-COV190 in a predefined ratio.

Conditions
Covid19 Vaccine
Being tested
MVC-COV1901 (High-Dose), MVC-COV1901(Mid-Dose)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MVC-COV1901 (High-Dose)Biological

    Approximately 300 participants will receive 2 doses of MVC-COV1901(S-2P protein with adjuvant) at Visit 2 (Day 1) and Visit 4 (Day 29) via intramuscular (IM) injection in the deltoid region

  • MVC-COV1901(Mid-Dose)Biological

    Approximately 100 participants will receive 2 doses of MVC-COV1901(S-2P protein with adjuvant) at Visit 2 (Day 1) and Visit 4 (Day 29) via intramuscular (IM) injection in the deltoid region

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Adverse Events(AEs) [Safety and Tolerability]

    To evaluate the incidence of Adverse Events(AEs) of MVC-COV1901 from Visit 2 (Day 1) to Visit 6 (28 days after the second dose of study intervention) in terms of the number and percentage of participants with the occurrence of:

    Solicited local AEs (up to 7 days after each dose of study intervention) Solicited systemic AEs (up to 7 days after each dose of study intervention) Unsolicited AEs (up to 28 days after each dose of study intervention) AE of Special Interest (AESI) Vaccine-Associated Enhanced Disease(VAED) Serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: Day 1 to 28 days after the second vaccination

  2. Immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901

    To evaluate the immunogenicity of High-dose MVC-COV1901, as compared to Mid-dose MVC-COV1901, in terms of neutralizing antibody titers.

    Measured: Day 1 to 28 days after the second vaccination

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of Adverse Events(AEs) [Safety and Tolerability]

    To evaluate the Incidence of Adverse Events(AEs) of MVC-COV1901 over the study period in terms of the number and percentage of participants with the occurrence of:

    >= Grade 3 AE AE of Special Interest (AESI) Vaccine-Associated Enhanced Disease(VAED) Serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: Day 1 to 180 days after the second vaccination

  2. Immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901

    The antigen-specific immunoglobulin titers and neutralizing antibody titers at Visit 4 (28 days after the first dose of study intervention), Visit 6 (28 days after the second dose of study intervention), Visit 7 (90 days after the second dose of study intervention) and Visit 8 (180 days after the second dose of study intervention) in terms of antigen-specific immunoglobulin titers and neutralizing antibody titers

    Measured: Day 1 to 180 days after the second vaccination

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MVC-COV1901 (High-Dose) and MVC-COV1901(Mid-Dose) in people with Covid19 Vaccine, run by Medigen Vaccine Biologics Corp. at 4 sites in Taiwan.

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 5 inclusion and 16 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 28 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 4 sites in Taiwan. 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. 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?

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?

Incidence of Adverse Events(AEs) [Safety and Tolerability] (time frame: Day 1 to 28 days after the second vaccination). The study lists 2 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 NCT04822025, 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 28 Jun 2022.
