Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study was intended to explore the safety and immunogenicity of the test vaccine compared to the control vaccine. The trial consisted of two phases.

Phase I used an open-ended design. Phase II used a randomized, blinded, parallel-controlled non-inferiority design with the same type of active vaccine, in which the control vaccine 5-dose group and the test vaccine 5 group were kept blinded throughout, the test vaccine 4-dose B group was kept blinded from the other three groups until visit 4 (D14), and the test vaccine 4-dose A group was kept blinded from the control vaccine 5-dose group and the test vaccine 5-dose group until visit 5 (D28).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: 5-dose group of test vaccine
  • Biological: 5-dose group of control vaccine
  • Biological: 4-dose A group of test vaccine
  • Biological: 4-dose B group of test vaccine

  5. Meet the exclusion criteria for the first dose (except for items with *);

  6. Vaccination-related adverse events occur after vaccination and subsequent doses are not considered appropriate by investigators;
