What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Solicited Local Adverse Events (AEs) for 7 Days After Vaccination

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study. Solicited local AEs are pre-defined local (at the injection site) AEs. Participants will be asked to note in the diary occurrences of injection site pain/tenderness, erythema and swelling at the study vaccine injection site daily for 7 days post vaccination (day of vaccination and the subsequent 7 days).

    Measured: Day 8 (7 days after vaccination)

  2. Number of Participants with Solicited Systemic AEs for 7 Days After Vaccination

    Number of participants with solicited systemic AEs will be reported. Participants will be instructed on how to record daily temperature using a thermometer and also instructed to note signs and symptoms in the diary on a daily basis for 7 days after vaccination. Solicited systemic AEs are fatigue, headache, nausea, and myalgia.

    Measured: Day 8 (7 days after vaccination)

  3. Number of Participants with Unsolicited AEs for 28 Days After Vaccination

    Number of participants with unsolicited AEs will be reported. Unsolicited AEs are all AEs for which the participant is not specifically questioned in the participant diary.

    Measured: Day 29 (28 days after vaccination)

  4. Number of Participants with AEs Leading to Study Discontinuation

    Number of participants with AEs leading to study discontinuation will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  5. Number of Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product; is medically important.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  6. Number of Participants with Adverse Events of Special Interests (AESIs)

    Number of participants with AESIs will be reported. AESIs are significant AEs that are judged to be of special interest because of clinical importance, known or suspected class effects, or based on nonclinical signals. Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS), a syndrome characterized by a combination of both a thrombotic event and thrombocytopenia, is considered to be an AESI in this study. A suspected TTS case is defined as: Thrombotic events: suspected deep vessel venous or arterial thrombotic events; Thrombocytopenia, defined as platelet count below 150,000/micro liter.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  7. S Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (S-ELISA) Geometric Mean Concentrations (GMCs) 28 Days After Vaccination

    Non-inferiority (NI) will be assessed in terms of humoral immune response expressed by the GMCs of S-ELISA.

    Measured: Day 29 (28 days after vaccination)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus(-2) (SARS-CoV-2) S Protein Binding Antibody Concentrations as Measured by S-ELISA

    SARS-CoV-2 S protein binding antibody concentrations as measured by S-ELISA will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  2. Serological Response to Vaccination as Measured by Virus Neutralization Assay (VNA) Titers

    Serological response to vaccination, as measured by VNA titers will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  3. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Antibody

    GMTs of antibody will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ad26.COV2.S in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Vaccines & Prevention B.V. at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 7 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 22 Dec 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 Netherlands. 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?

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?

Number of Participants with Solicited Local Adverse Events (AEs) for 7 Days After Vaccination (time frame: Day 8 (7 days after 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?
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 22 Dec 2021.
