Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase I trial evaluates the side effects and best dose of COH04S1, a synthetic modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, for the prevention of COVID-19 infection. COVID-19 infection is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. SARS-CoV-2 has demonstrated the capability to spread rapidly, leading to significant impacts on healthcare systems and causing societal disruption. COH04S1 was created by placing small pieces of SARS-CoV-2 DNA (the chemical form of genes) into synthetic MVA, which may be able to induce immunity (the ability to recognize and fight against an infection) to SARS-CoV-2. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and the optimal dose of the COH04S1 vaccine.

Phase 1

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
  1. Safety and tolerability of the synthetic MVA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccine COH04S1 (COH04S1) vaccine at three different dose levels (DL): 1.0x107 plaque-forming unit (PFU)/dose, 1.0x108 PFU/dose, and 2.5x10^8 PFU/dose. (Phase I)

  2. Evaluate the safety profile of a single-dose vaccine boost at day 7 post-injection of COH04S1. (Phase II)

  3. Determine whether the COH04S1 dose levels tested (1.0x107 or 1.0x108) generate promising immune responses (>5-fold increase of Spike IgG over baseline) after single-dose booster injection, and select a promising dose to use for further study. (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Longitudinal evaluation of humoral immunity. (Phase I)

  2. Quality and properties of cellular and humoral immunity elicited as a result of the vaccination. (Phase I)

  3. Explore the role of two injections versus one injection, and evaluate a placebo group. (Phase I)

  4. Evaluate T cell-based antigen-specific immune responses at day 28 post-injection of single-dose COH04S1 vaccine boost. (Phase II)

  5. Evaluate SARS-CoV-2 S and N-specific Th1 vs Th2 polarization. (Phase II)

  6. Assess levels of SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies and their activity against variants of concern (VOC) or variants of high consequence (VHC). (Phase II)

  7. Estimate the durability of antibody-based immune responses in a 12-month time period. (Phase II)

  8. Estimate the durability of T-cell-based immune responses in a 12-month time period. (Phase II)

  9. Estimate the incidence of COVID-19 Moderate and Severe disease during follow-up (12 months). (Phase II)

  10. Evaluate the potential relationship between duration of immunity and COVID infection (incidence) over the 12-month study period. (Phase II)

  11. Summarize outcomes, primary and secondary endpoints, based on pre-study mRNA vaccine received. (Phase II)

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Surveillance for incidental coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection during follow-up (1 year). (Phase I)

  2. Quality and properties of cellular and humoral immunity elicited as a result of the vaccination. (Phase I)

  3. Evaluate activated/cycling, cytotoxic/helper, and memory phenotype markers. (Phase II)

  4. Estimate SARS-CoV-2-specfic serum IgA and IgG over time. (Phase II)
