A Ph 2 Trial With an Oral Tableted COVID-19 Vaccine

A Phase 2, Double-Blind, Multi-Center, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Ranging Trial to Determine the Safety, Immunogenicity and Efficacy of an Adenoviral-Vector Based Vaccine Expressing Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) and dsRNA Adjuvant Administered Orally

Part 1: An open label, dose and age escalation phase to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of VXA-CoV2-1.1-S with a repeat-dose vaccination schedule in healthy adults aged 18 - 75 years old that are either vaccine naive or have received prior vaccination with an mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19.

Part 2: This phase will assess the efficacy of prophylactic VXA-CoV2-1.1-S against confirmed COVID-19 occurring from 7 days after second dose with a repeat-dose vaccination schedule in healthy adults compared to placebo. Safety and immunogenicity of VXA-CoV2-1.1-S will also be evaluated in this phase.

Study Overview

• Status: Terminated
• Conditions: COVID-19
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: VXA-CoV2-1.1-S; Other: Placebo Tablets

Detailed Description

Part 1: This is an open-label, dose-ranging phase of the study to determine the safety and immunogenicity of an orally administered adenoviral-vector based vaccine (VXA-COV2-1.1-S) expressing a SARS-CoV-2 antigen and dsRNA adjuvant. Post screening activities, healthy adult volunteers, either naïve or prior vaccinated with an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, aged 18 - 55 yrs old, and then 56 - 75 yrs old, will be enrolled into the study in 8 subgroups. Participants will receive either a low or a high dose of an oral tableted vaccine at Days 1 and Day 29. The total study period will last ~ 2 months during the active phase, with a total 12 month safety follow-up period post last vaccination. Safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity assessments will be performed at set times during the study active and follow-up periods. Subjects will be monitored for symptoms of COVID-19 throughout the duration of the study follow-up period. An independent data monitoring committee (IDMC) will provide safety oversight through the duration of the trial. Safety and immunogenicity data will inform on the dose selection for Part 2.

Part 2: This will be a placebo-controlled phase with the vaccine dose level selected from Part 1. Subjects will receive two doses of vaccine or placebo at Days 1 and 29. Subjects will be followed as in Part 1 for safety and immunogenicity. They will also be followed for 6 months for efficacy.

Number of Participants Who Experienced an Unsolicited Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) During the Active Treatment Period	A TEAE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention, occurring after first dose of study drug. A serious TEAE was any TEAE that met any of the following criteria: Resulted in death.; Was life-threatening.; Required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization.; Resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity.; Was a congenital anomaly/birth defect.; Was a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product.; Was a significant medical event, as judged by the investigator.
