A Study to Evaluate VXA-CoV2-3.3 COVID-19 Vaccine Against Currently Approved/Authorized mRNA COVID-19 Injectable Booster Vaccine in Adults Previously Immunized Against COVID-19 Infection

October 20, 2025 updated by: Vaxart

A Phase 2b, Double-Blind, Multi-Center, Randomized, Comparator-Controlled Trial to Determine the Relative Efficacy, Safety, and Immunogenicity of the Investigational Oral SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Tablet Against Currently Approved/Authorized mRNA COVID-19 Injectable Booster Vaccine in Adults Previously Immunized Against COVID-19 Infection

The primary objective of the study is to determine the relative efficacy of the investigational oral severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) vaccine tablet VXA-CoV2-3.3 compared to a currently recommended vaccine for the prevention of symptomatic Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

In order to represent a more recently circulating SARS-CoV-2 variant, the main study endpoints will now evaluate the VXA-CoV2-3.3 (KP.2 strain) vaccine, and not the VXA-CoV2-3.1 (XBB.1.5 strain) vaccine.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Adults 18 years of age and above, at time of screening.
  2. Completed primary approved/authorized COVID-19 vaccination series with ≥ 2 mRNA vaccine doses.
  3. Last COVID-19 vaccine received ≥6 months prior to study vaccination.

  5. Male participants must refrain from sperm donation from the day of study vaccination through the end of the study. Female participants must refrain from egg donation at least 30 days prior to study vaccination through the end of the study.
  6. Is medically stable, as determined by the site investigator (based on review of health status, vital signs, medical history, and physical examination) with screening lab values within normal limits or abnormalities assessed as not clinically significant. Screening platelet count must be >140,000/μL.
  7. Agree to not participate in any other SARS-CoV-2 infection prevention trial (vaccine, drug, biologic, PrEP) during participation in the study.

  9. Available for all study visits, willing to participate in all study procedures, and not planning to relocate from the area for the duration of the study.
  10. Negative rapid molecular Covid test at the screening visit and on Day 1 prior to vaccine dosing.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Participant has an acute illness as defined by any of the following (note: assessment may be repeated once during screening period) as determined by the site investigator, within 72 hours prior to vaccination as follows:

    1. An acute illness that is nearly resolved, with only minor residual symptoms remaining, is allowable if, in the opinion of the site investigator, the residual symptoms will not interfere with the ability of study staff to assess safety parameters as required by the protocol.
    2. Presence of a fever ≥ 38.0°C (100.4°F) measured orally at baseline, on Day 1 prior to vaccination.
    3. Receipt of antipyretic/analgesic medications within 24 hours prior to vaccine administration.
  2. Participant has had a positive COVID test within 90 days prior to screening.
  3. Current or planned participation in any other interventional clinical trial.
  4. Participation in research involving any investigational product within 45 days prior to study vaccination.
  5. Receipt of any approved or authorized products intended to prevent SARS-CoV2 infection within 6 months prior to study vaccination.
  6. Receipt or donation of blood products or immunoglobulins within 60 days prior to enrollment or planned administration during the study.
  7. Received influenza vaccination within 14 days prior to study vaccination, or any other vaccine within 30 days prior to study vaccination.
  8. Any autoimmune or immunodeficiency disease/condition (including and not limited to untreated or advanced HIV infection with CD4 counts <200 cells/mm^3, history of AIDS defining illness without immune reconstitution, or clinical manifestations of symptomatic HIV, severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), hypogammaglobulinemia, asplenia or functional asplenia).
  9. Unstable medical or psychiatric illness (acute or chronic illness) requiring significant medical monitoring and intervention during the 90 days prior to enrollment. Note: diabetes mellitus (Types 1 & 2) are not excluded if assessed by the principal investigator (PI) as well-controlled.

    1. B-cell therapies within the 6 months prior to first study vaccination
    2. Prednisone, ≥20 mg for more than 2 weeks, within the 30 days prior to study vaccination
    3. Other medications in this category, including but not limited to high-dose inhaled corticosteroids (>800 mcg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent); antimetabolites; transplant immunosuppressive agents; alkylating agents; cell-depleting agents; or cancer chemotherapeutics, within the 90 days prior to study vaccination.
    4. Any medication for any period of time that, in the opinion of the site investigator, could impede immune response to vaccination.
    5. Use of any dose montelukast OR inhaled, intranasal, intra-articular, or systemic corticosteroids within 2 weeks prior to study vaccination.
    6. Planned use of any of the above medications during the study.
    7. Concomitant allergen immunotherapy (AIT) will be allowed only if the participant is stable in the maintenance phase of AIT. Maintenance AIT should not be dosed for at least 7 days before and 7 days after study vaccine dosing, and the PI must document the treating allergist's approval.

Experimental: VXA-CoV2-3.3
If no dose-related toxicities are observed, and upon the recommendation of the Data and Safety Monitoring Board following review of Day 31 safety data in the initial safety cohorts (and possibly immunogenicity data), enrollment will continue with the remaining participants who will be randomized to receive a single dose of VXA-CoV2-3.3 (KP.2 vaccine).

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant irrespective of a causal relationship with the study treatment. TEAEs are any event that occurred after the participant received study treatment. An AE of special interest (AESI) is an AE (serious or non-serious) of scientific and medical concern specific to the sponsor's product or program. Medically attended AEs (MAAEs) are defined as AEs with medically attended visits including hospital, emergency room, urgent care clinic. A serious TEAE (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant after first dose irrespective of a causal relationship with the study treatment that resulted in death, was immediately life threatening, required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or another medically important serious event.
