A Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of SCTV01C and SCTV01E in Population Aged ≥12 Years Previously Fully Vaccinated With Inactivated COVID-19 Vaccine

A Randomized, Double-blind Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Immunogenicity and Safety of SCTV01C (A Bivalent SARS-CoV-2 Trimeric Spike Protein Vaccine) and SCTV01E (A COVID-19 Alpha/Beta/Delta/Omicron Variants S-Trimer Vaccine) in Population Aged ≥12 Years Previously Fully Vaccinated With Inactivated COVID-19 Vaccine

The objective of study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of SCTV01C or SCTV01E as booster compared with Sinopharm inactivated COVID-19 vaccine as booster. The study will also evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of 2-dose vaccinations.

Study Overview

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Conditions: COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2 Infection
• Intervention / Treatment: Biological: SCTV01C; Biological: SCTV01E; Biological: SCTV01E; Biological: Sinopharm inactivated COVID-19 vaccine; Biological: Comirnaty

Detailed Description

The study is a randomized, double-blind, and approved vaccine-controlled Phase II booster study. It will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of one dose of SCTV01C or SCTV01E as booster compared with one dose of Sinopharm inactivated COVID-19 vaccine or one dose of Commirnaty as booster. The study will also evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of 2-dose vaccinations (1-dose of SCTV01C and 1-dose of SCTV01E, or 2-dose of SCTV01E, or 1-dose of Sinopharm inactivated COVID-19 vaccine and 1-dose of SCTV01E, 1-dose of Comirnaty and 1-dose of SCTV01E).

The "pre-existing medical conditions" include but not limited to hypertension, diabetes, chronic cholecystitis and cholelithiasis, chronic gastritis that meet the described criteria. A stable medical condition is defined as disease not requiring significant change in therapy or no need for hospitalization as a consequence of worsening disease state for at least 3 months prior to enrollment;

Immunocompromised patients suffering from immunodeficiency diseases, important organ diseases, immune diseases (including Guillain-Barre Syndrome [GBS], systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, asplenia or splenectomy caused by any circumstances, and other immune diseases that may have an impact on immune response in the investigator's opinion), etc.;
7. Long-term use of immunosuppressant therapy or immunomodulatory drugs for ≥14 days within the first six months prior to enrollment. Whereas short-term (≤14 days) use of oral, inhaled and topical steroids are allowed;
8. Patients on antituberculosis therapy;
9. Presence of severe or uncontrollable cardiovascular diseases, or severe or uncontrollable disorders related to endocrine system, blood and lymphatic system, liver and kidney, respiratory system, metabolic and skeletal systems, or malignancies (except for skin basal cell carcinoma and carcinoma in-situ of cervix), such as severe heart failure, severe pulmonary heart disease, unstable angina, liver failure, or uremia;
10. Contraindications for intramuscular injection or intravenous blood sampling, including thrombocytopenia and other blood coagulation disorders;
11. Participants who received any immunoglobulin or blood products in the previous 3 months before enrollment, or plan to receive similar products during the study;
12. Participants who received other investigational drugs within 1 month before the study vaccination;
13. Participants who is at the acute state of disease, such as acute onset of chronic heart failure, acute sore throat, hypertensive encephalopathy, acute pneumonia, acute renal insufficiency, acute cholecystitis;
14. Participants received other drugs or vaccines used to prevent COVID-19 (exception for Sinopharm inactivated COVID-19 vaccine) ;
15. Participants vaccinated with influenza vaccine within 14 days or with other vaccines within 28 days before the study vaccination;
16. Those who donated blood or had blood loss (≥450 mL) within 3 months before the vaccination or plan to donate blood during the study period;
17. Those who are pregnant or breast-feeding or plan to be pregnant during the study period;
18. Those who plan to donate ovum or sperms during the study period;
19. Those who cannot follow the trial procedures, or cannot cooperate to complete the study due to planned relocation or long-term outing;
20. Those unsuitable for participating in the clinical trial as determined by the investigator because of other abnormalities that are likely to confuse the study results, or non-conformance with the maximal benefits of the participants;
21. Those who are tested positive for HIV in terms of serology.
