Study Description

Brief Summary

This Phase 2/3 study is a multi-portion design to confirm that the chosen formulation and dosing regimen of CoVLP has an acceptable immunogenicity and safety profile.

The Phase 3 portion is an event-driven, randomized, observer blinded, placebo-controlled design that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the CoVLP formulation compared to placebo.

Subjects will be followed for safety and immunogenicity for a period of 12 months after the last vaccination.
