Study summary

Phase II, non-randomized, open-label, comparative, single center national trial in Guinea, aimed to assess the humoral vaccine immune response induced by BBIBP-CorV vaccine in 200 adults aged between 18 and 45 years or 55 or older, one month after receiving the complete COVID-19 vaccination schedule.

Read the detailed description

The main objective of this phase II trial is to evaluate the humoral immune response induced by the BBIBP-CorV vaccine in adults one month after complete vaccination regimen against SARS-CoV-2, comparing younger (up to 45 years old) and elderly (55+ years old) populations.

200 participants will be included. The age categories are 18 - 45 years, 55 - 64 years and 65+ years. The number of participants per age group will be distributed as follows 1:1:0,5. There will be no comparison between population on different vaccines.

Participants will receive two doses of BBIBP-CorV at 28 days interval. Vaccines will be administered intramuscular (0.5mL per injection)

Humoral vaccine immune responses, induced by BBIBP-CorV will be measured by ELISA at D0, M1, M2, M6, M12 and M24.

  • Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, may adversely affect the well-being of the participant and interfere with the purpose of the study
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(6)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
