What is being measured

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

  1. Reactogenicity

    Occurrence of solicited local events (nasal irritation, sneezing, nasal congestion, cough, sore throat, change in smell, change in taste, change in vision and eye pain) and solicited systemic events (fever, headache, malaise, myalgia, joint pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, chills and sweating) for a 14-day period after each vaccination

    Measured: Day 1 to 15 and Day 22 to 36

  2. Adverse Events

    Occurrence of unsolicited AEs, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs)

  3. Neutralizing Antibodies in Serum against Live SARS-CoV-2 Measured by Neutralization Assay

    Measurement of neutralizing antibody levels by microneutralization (MN) assay in serum samples

    Measured: Day 1(pre-dose), 22(pre-dose), 36(+2) and 50(±3)

  4. Binding Antibodies in Serum against SARS-CoV-2 RBD Measured by CMIA

    Measurement of binding antibody responses by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) in serum samples

    Measured: Day 1(pre-dose), 22(pre-dose), 36(+2) and 50(±3)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. T-cell Responses against SARS-CoV-2 Spike Peptide Measured by ELISpot

    Enumeration of antigen-specific T cells by IFN gamma ELISpot assay in serum samples

    Measured: Day 1(pre-dose), 22(pre-dose), 36(+2) and 50(±3)

  2. Total Ig Antibodies in Mucosal Secretion against SARS-CoV-2 RBD Measured by ELISA

    Measurement of total Ig antibody levels in saliva samples

    Measured: Day 1(pre-dose), 4(+1), 22(pre-dose), 25(+1), 36(+2) and 50(±3)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing DelNS1-2019-nCoV-RBD-OPT1 in people with Covid19, run by The University of Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 15 inclusion and 47 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 28 Oct 2022. 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 Hong Kong. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Contact Volunteer Resource Centre (85296812309, ctcvrc@hku.hk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reactogenicity (time frame: Day 1 to 15 and Day 22 to 36). The study lists 4 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 NCT05200741, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Oct 2022.
