Who cannot join

  • Receipt of any vaccine from 4 weeks prior to each trial vaccination (8 weeks for live vaccines) to 6 weeks after each trial vaccination.
  • Previous rMVA immunization.
  • Evidence of an active SARS-CoV-2 infection.
  • Known allergy to the components of the MVA-SARS-2-S vaccine product such as chicken proteins, or history of life-threatening reactions to vaccine containing the same substances.
  • Known history of anaphylaxis to vaccination or any allergy likely to be exacerbated by any component of the trial vaccine.
  • Evidence in the participant's medical history or in the medical examination that might influence either the safety of the participant or the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of the investigational product under investigation.

  • Clinically relevant findings in ECG or significant thromboembolic events in medical history.
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, cytotoxic therapy in the previous 5 years, and/or uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c > 7.0).

About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Randomized Placebo-controlled Phase II Trial to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of Two Doses of the Candidate Vaccine MVA-SARS-2-S in Adults Aged 18 to 64 and 65 and Older

In this multi-center phase II clinical trial, adults in stable health conditions will be vaccinated twice with either a low dose or high dose of the candidate vaccine MVA-SARS-2-S, or placebo.

The aim of the study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of the candidate vaccine.

Read the detailed description

The vaccine contains a Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara (MVA) vector expressing the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (S).

This will be a combined Phase II, multi-center trial in a total of 580 participants.

The dose finding study will be conducted randomized-controlled, in adults in stable health conditions, including health care workers, COVID-19 risk populations, individuals with advanced age and seropositive individuals.

Male and female individuals in stable health conditions will be stratified for age (18-64 years and 65 and older).

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Experiencing Solicited Local or Systemic Reactogenicity as Defined by the Study Protocol

    Safety and reactogenicity will be assessed by observation, questionaire and diary. Occurence of Serious Adverse Events (SAE) will be collected throughout the entire study duration.

    Measured: during the entire study (up to 6 months)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunogenicity

    Number of participants who seroconverted. Magnitude of SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody responses (ELISA and neutralization assay)

    Measured: during the entire study (up to 6 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MVA-SARS-2-S in people with Covid19, run by Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf.

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 9 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Percentage of Participants Experiencing Solicited Local or Systemic Reactogenicity as Defined by the Study Protocol (time frame: during the entire study (up to 6 months)). 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 18 Jul 2023.
