About this study

Official title: A Phase IIb Randomized Double-Blinded Positive Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety Study of the 3rd Booster Dose Using the High or Medium Dose of Inactivated (CoronaVac®) Vaccine in Healthy Adults Who Have Completed Two Doses of CoronaVac® or the mRNA Vaccine (Comirnaty) in Turkey

This is a randomized, double-blinded, and positive-controlled Phase IIb clinical trial of COVID-19 vaccine (CoronaVac®) manufactured by Sinovac Research \& Development Co., Ltd.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity of using the high (1200SU) or medium (600SU) dose of CoronaVac® as the booster dose.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blinded, and positive-controlled phaseⅡb clinical trial of 640 participants aged 18 years and above, who have completed 2 doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine (CoronaVac®) or mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (Comirnaty) as the primary vaccination. Participants will be enrolled and randomly assigned into two arms at a ratio of 1:1 to receive a booster dose of medium-dose (600SU) or high-dose (1200SU) COVID-19 Vaccine. For those who were vaccinated with CoronaVac®, the booster dose will be given 3-8 months after their second dose. For those who were vaccinated with Comirnaty, the booster dose will be given 6-8 months after their second dose. Each participant will be collected 5.0 ml blood sample before vaccination and 14 days,3 months and 6 months after booster immunization.Immunogenicity assessments will be determined by neutralizing antibodies in all participants.In addition,all participants will be monitored for immediate reactions (within 30 minutes) after the booster dose vaccination, adverse events of special interest (AESIs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) for 12 months after booster dose inoculation. In addition, all participants in will be monitored for local and systemic solicited adverse events (AEs) within 7 days and the unsolicited AEs within 28 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Medium-dose COVID-19 Vaccine(Vero Cell),Inactivated and High-dose COVID-19 Vaccine(Vero Cell),Inactivated in people with COVID-19, run by Sinovac Research and Development Co., Ltd. at 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 12 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 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 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Immunogenicity index-GMT of neutralizing antibodies (time frame: 14 days (14-28 days) after the booster dose vaccination). 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 11 Aug 2022.
