About this study
Official title: A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate Safety, Immunogenicity of the ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA Vaccine in Healthy Adults
This is a phase 1 study that will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA vaccine in healthy adults.
Read the detailed description
ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA vaccine is the lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)-encapsulated mRNA-based ChulaCov19 vaccine developed by Chula VRC and manufactured by BioNet Asia, Thailand for the active immunisation of healthy adults against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This is a phase 1 study that will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA vaccine in healthy adults. This study will be conducted in 2 study centers, open-label , dose finding, first in human (FIH) study conducted in healthy participants. There are two groups. One group will receive 25 ug of ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA vaccine and the other group will receive 50 ug of ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA vaccine. Each group will have 12 participants. Intramuscular injection of the investigational vaccine at the assigned dose, will be administered 21 days apart, on Day 1 and Day 22 ( ±3) .

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing ChulaCov19 BNA159 mRNA vaccine in people with Safety of 25 ug of ChulaCov19-BNA159 mRNA Vaccine and Tolerability of 25 ug of ChulaCov19-BNA159 mRNA Vaccine, run by Chulalongkorn University at 2 sites in Thailand.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 27 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Sivaporn Gatechompol, MD (662 652 3040 ext. 171, sivaporn.k@hivnat.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Frequency of solicited local reactogenicity adverse events (AE) (time frame: during a 7-day follow-up period post each vaccination (up to Day 29+3)). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Feb 2023.
