About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open Label, Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of OSE-13E, a Multiepitope-based Vaccine Candidate Against COVID-19, in Healthy Adults (COVEPIT-3)

The proposed study is a phase 1 study which will evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of two doses regimen of CoVepiT vaccine (OSE-13E) in the population of n=48 healthy volunteers 18 to 45 (inclusive) years old, vaccinated or not by authorized COVID-19 vaccine.

Study will be open label and will be randomized 1:1 in two parallel study arms receiving either one single dose or two doses separated by 21 days.

First 4 subjects will serve as sentinel cohort and 7 days reactogenicity data of these subjects will be reviewed by the independent safety monitoring committee (SMC) before proceeding to the vaccination of remaining volunteers. The progress of the study will be overviewed by a safety monitoring committee (SMC).

The CoVepiT vaccine is a peptide-based vaccine aiming to induce CD8+T-cell-mediated immune response against 11 different proteins of SARS-CoV-2 virus.

What is being measured

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

  2. The incidence of solicited systemic reactogenicity signs and symptoms

    Measured: up to 7 days after each injection

  3. The incidence of unsolicited adverse events in study participants.

    Measured: up to 28 days after each vaccination.

  4. The occurrence of serious adverse events (SAE).

    Measured: throughout study completion, an average of 6 months.

  5. The occurrence of adverse events of special interest (AESI), including potentially immune mediated disorders (pIMD)

    Measured: throughout study completion, an average of 6 months.

  6. Proportion of subjects with significantly increased CD8+ T cells responding to SARS-CoV-2 wild type epitopes at Week 6 - 1 versus 2 doses

    Measured: Week 6

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Proportion of subjects with significantly increased CD8+ T cells responding to SARS-CoV-2 wild type epitopes

    Measured: Day 22, Month 3 and Month 6

  2. Geometric mean fold rise of CD8+ T cells responding to SARS-CoV-2 wild type

    Measured: Day 22, Month 3 and Month 6

  3. Proportion of participants achieving ≥2-fold rise of secreting spots specific to SARS-CoV-2 wild type epitopes

    Measured: At baseline and after each vaccination

  4. Change in geometric mean count (GMC) of CD8+ T cells antigen specific to SARS-CoV-2 wild type epitopes

    Measured: from the pre-injection baseline (Day 1) to Day 22, Week 6, Month 3 and Month 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CoVepiT (OSE13E) in people with Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), run by OSE Immunotherapeutics at 1 site in Belgium.

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 6 inclusion and 33 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2021. 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 Belgium. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ose immunotherapeutics (01 43 29 78 57, contact@ose-immuno.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of solicited local reactogenicity signs and symptoms (time frame: up to 7 days after each injection). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Jun 2021.
