UNAIR Inactivated COVID-19 Vaccine Phase III (Immunobridging Study)

August 24, 2022 updated by: Dr. Soetomo General Hospital

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind, Controlled, Phase III Clinical Trial (Immunobridging Study) of Vaksin Merah Putih - UA SARS-CoV-2 (Vero Cell Inactivated) in Healthy Population Aged 18 Years and Above

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double blind, controlled, phase III clinical trial (Immunobridging Study) to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Vaksin Merah Putih - UA SARS-CoV-2 (Vero Cell Inactivated) in healthy populations aged 18 years and above. Vaksin Merah Putih - UA SARS-CoV-2 (Vero Cell Inactivated) is an inactivated vaccine made of SARS-CoV-2 virus isolated from a patient in Surabaya, composed with aluminium hydroxy gel, tween 80, and L-histidine, and this study will be the first phase III in human.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a double blind randomized controlled trial - immunobridging study. There will be 2 groups in the study. One adult group (18 year-old and above) with 5 µg dose, and 1 control group using CoronaVac Bio Farma. Both vaccines will be administered with 2-dose schedule, intramuscularly. All cohorts will be followed for 6 months.

This study will have two interim and one full analysis The main focus is immunogenicity and safety or reactogenicity issues. Data Safety Monitoring Board will be commissioned for this study to evaluate safety data over the study period and to review any events that meet a specific study pausing rule or any other safety issue that may arise. They will review the blinded 7 and 28 days safety data following the first dose of vaccine, and then the 7 and 28 days after the second dose. The immunogenicity data will be evaluated until 6 months after the second dose

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Healthy adults and elderly, males and females, 18 years of age and above. Healthy status will be determined by the investigator based on medical history, clinical laboratory results, vital sign measurements, and physical examination at screening.
  2. Subjects have been informed properly regarding the study and signed the informed consent form.
  3. Subject will commit to comply with the instructions of the investigator and the schedule of the trial
  4. Participants agree not to donate bone marrow, blood, and blood products from the first study vaccine administration until 3 months after receiving the last dose of study vaccine.
  5. Participants must be willing to provide verifiable identification, has means to be contacted and to contact the investigator during the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Subjects concomitantly enrolled or scheduled to be enrolled in another vaccine trial.
  2. Evolving mild, moderate, and severe illness, especially infectious diseases or fever (axillary temperature 37.5 degree Celcius or more) concurrent or within 7 days prior to first study vaccination. This includes respiratory or constitutional symptoms consistent with SARS-CoV-2 (cough, sore throat, difficulty in breathing, etc)
  3. Known history of allergy to any component of the vaccines.
  4. History of uncontrolled coagulopathy or blood disorders contraindicating intramuscular injection.
  5. Any autoimmune or immunodeficiency disease/condition
  6. Subjects who have received in the previous 4 weeks a treatment likely to alter the immune response (intravenous immunoglobulin, blood derived products, long term corticosteroid - more than 2 weeks, and so on), OR anticipation of the need for immunosuppressive treatment within 6 months after last vaccination. The use of topical or nasal steroid will be permitted.
  7. Unstable chronic disease, inclusive of uncontrolled hypertension, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, chronic urticaria, diabetes requiring use of medicine.
