Covid19 Vaccine | Biological: MVC-COV1901(S protein with adjuvant) | Phase 2 |
This is an extension study of the main study CT-COV-21, "A Phase II, Prospective, Double-blinded, Multi-Center, Multi-Regional Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of the SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Candidate MVC-COV1901."
This extension study is a prospective, open-label, multicenter study. In this extension study, approximately 500 participants who received the placebo and have remained blinded in the main study until Day 119 (90 days after the second vaccination of the main study) are enrolled and receive MVC-COV1901. Each participant will receive 2 doses of MVC-COV1901, administered 28 days apart via IM injection in the deltoid region, preferably of the non-dominant arm, at Day 1 and Day 29.
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Actual Enrollment : | 274 participants |
Allocation: | N/A |
Intervention Model: | Single Group Assignment |
Masking: | None (Open Label) |

- Number of Adverse Event (Safety of MVC-COV1901) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 28 days after second vaccination ]
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MVC-COV1901 from Day 1 to 28 days after the second dose of study intervention in terms of the number of participants with the occurrence of:
- Solicited local AEs (up to 7 days after each dose of study intervention)
- Solicited systemic AEs (up to 7 days after each dose of study intervention)
- Unsolicited AEs (up to 28 days after each dose of study intervention)
- AE of Special Interest (AESI)
- Vaccine-Associated Enhanced Disease(VAED)
- Serious adverse events (SAEs)
- Percentage of Adverse Event (Safety of MVC-COV1901) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 28 days after second vaccination ]

- Immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901(Neutralizing Antibody) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 28 days after second vaccination ]To evaluate the immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901 in terms of neutralizing antibody titers 28 days after the second dose of study intervention
- Number of Adverse Event over the study period (Secondary Safety of MVC-COV1901) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 180 days after second vaccination ]
To evaluate the safety of MVC-COV1901 over the study period in terms of the number of participants with the occurrence of:
- >= Grade 3 AE
- AE of Special Interest (AESI)
- Vaccine-Associated Enhanced Disease(VAED)
- Serious adverse events (SAEs)

- Immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901(Antigen-specific Immunoglobulin) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 28 days after second vaccination ]To evaluate the immunogenicity of MVC-COV1901 in terms of antigen-specific immunoglobulin 28 days after the second dose of study intervention
- Incidence of confirmed COVID-19 cases (Efficacy of MVC-COV1901) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 180 days after second vaccination ]
To estimate the efficacy of MVC-COV1901, as compared to placebo, in the prevention of COVID-19 in terms of :
- The number of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases occurring ≥ 15 days after any dose of study intervention.
- The number of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 severe cases occurring ≥ 15 days after any dose of study intervention.
