About this study

Official title: A Phase II/III, Open Label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of the Whole-Virion Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (COVAXIN®) in Healthy Volunteers Ages ≤18 to ≥ 2 Years.

The study is designed to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of three groups ages ≤18 - >12, ≤12 ->6, ≤ 6 - >2 years of healthy volunteers who receive two doses of the whole virion inactivated SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine (COVAXIN®) 28 days apart.

Data will be un-blinded to the third party bio-statistician and an interim analysis will be performed on day 56 for Immunogenicity, Safety and submitted to CDSCO.

Study design: A Phase II/III, Open Label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity, of the Whole-Virion Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (COVAXIN®) in Healthy Volunteers ages ≤18 to ≥2 Years.

A total sample size of 525 healthy volunteers.

The study is designed to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of three groups ages ≤18 - >12, ≤12 ->6, ≤ 6 - >2 years of healthy volunteers who receive two doses of the whole virion inactivated SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine (COVAXIN®) 28 days apart.

Group1: A total of 175 healthy volunteers ages ≤18->12, years will be enrolled in this group and will receive two doses of BBV152 vaccine through intramuscular route on Day 0 and Day 28+2.

Group 2: A total of 175 healthy volunteers ages ≤12->6, years will be enrolled in this group and will receive two doses of BBV152 vaccine through intramuscular route on Day 0 and Day 28+2.

Group 3: A total of 175 healthy volunteers ages ≤6-> 2 years will be enrolled in this group and will receive two doses of BBV152 vaccine through intramuscular route on Day 0 and Day 28+2.

Data will be un-blinded to the third party bio-statistician and an interim analysis will be performed on day 56 for Immunogenicity, Safety and submitted to CDSCO.

Immunogenicity analysis: A total of 5 ml of blood is collected at days 0, 28+2, 56±7, 118±7 and 208±7. SARS-CoV-2 test will be conducted at the time of screening using RT-PCR and ELISA method.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing COVAXIN in people with SARS-CoV2 Infection, run by Bharat Biotech International Limited at 7 sites in India.

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 7 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 18 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in India. 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Reactogenicity (time frame: Within 7 days after each dose of 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 NCT04918797, 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 Aug 2022.
