CompletedPhase 2

Immunogenicity Evaluation of Omicron Variant-based Vaccine and a Trivalent Vaccine in Adults Against COVID-19 in Chile

Chile551 participantsStarted 2022-11-28

Plain-language summary

Phase 2 clinical trial in adults previously vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2 in Chile with an initial schedule of two doses of CoronaVac® plus two booster doses with different vaccines. Subjects will randomly receive a third booster dose with Omicron, trivalent, or CoronaVac® vaccine. The humoral immunogenicity against COVID-19 will be compared in subjects that received the Omicron or the Trivalent vaccines with subjects that received CoronaVac® to determine the superiority of the two candidate vaccines versus CoronaVac®. Subjects will be followed for 6 months after the booster dose administration.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults, male or female, over 18 years of age; * Fully vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2 with two initial doses of CoronaVac® vaccine and that have received two booster doses of a different vaccine (heterologous group) or with CoronaVac® (homologous group) at least 5 months before enrollment; * Capable of understanding and signing the informed consent form; * Availability and commitment to comply with study procedures and in-person and remote appointments. Exclusion Criteria: * Symptomatic COVID-19 diagnosed 60 days before enrollment (confirmed COVID-19 by RT-PCR or antigen test, or by being in close contact with a confirmed case); * Pregnant women (confirmed by urine pack test) or women who plan to get pregnant within the first 3 months of the study; * Known allergies to the vaccine components; * Evidence of uncontrolled metabolic, neurologic#, cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, or renal disease. Significant changes in medical treatment or hospitalizations due to worsening conditions in the last three months are indicators of uncontrolled disease or unsuccessful adherence to the treatment; * Alteration of the immune system (neoplasms, except basal cell cancer), congenital or acquired immunodeficiencies, and uncontrolled autoimmune diseases. Significant changes in medical treatment or hospitalizations due to worsening conditions in the last three months are indicators of uncontrolled disease; * Behavioral, psychiatric, or cognitive conditions# that, according to…

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

What they're measuring

Superiority in humoral immunogenicity of the neutralizing antibodies against the Delta and Omicron variants in response to a booster dose of the trivalent vaccine compared to CoronaVac® in adults previously immunized against SARS-CoV-2.

Timeframe: Up until 6 months after intervention

Superiority in humoral immunogenicity of neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron variant in response to a booster dose with the Omicron vaccine when compared with CoronaVac® in adults previously immunized against SARS-CoV-2.

Timeframe: Up until 6 months after intervention

Non-inferiority of neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron and Delta variants generated by a booster dose of trivalent vaccine when compared to CoronaVac® in adults previously immunized against SARS-CoV-2 in a heterologous schedule.

Timeframe: Up until 6 months after intervention

Non-inferiority of neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron variant generated by a booster dose with Omicron vaccine when compared with CoronaVac® in adults previously immunized against SARS-CoV-2 in a heterologous schedule.

Timeframe: Up until 6 months after intervention
