This is an open-label phase 1/2, dose-escalation study. Participants will receive a single intramuscular (IM) dose of IMNN-101 on Day 0 in the deltoid muscle and will be followed through 12 months post-vaccination (through Study Day 365).
This is an open-label phase 1/2, dose-escalation study. Participants will receive a single intramuscular (IM) dose of IMNN-101 on Day 0 in the deltoid muscle and will be followed through 12 months post-vaccination (through Study Day 365).
Phase 1: A total of twenty-four (24) participants will be enrolled into one of three groups listed below:
Group 1 (8 participants) - 0.25 mL at 2 mg/ml of IMNN-101 DNA to be administered as 0.5 mg dose intramuscularly (IM) at Day 0
Group 2 (8 participants) - 0.50 mL at 2 mg/ml of IMNN-101 DNA to be administered as 1.0 mg dose intramuscularly (IM) at Day 0
Group 3 (8 participants) - 1.0 mL at 2 mg/ml of IMNN-101 DNA to be administered as 2.0 mg dose intramuscularly (IM) at Day 0
To assess early safety signals for this Phase 1 study, vaccination will proceed in a staged fashion. Sentinel participant dosing will begin with 4 participants in Group 1 (0.25 mL). If no halting rules have been met after Group 1 sentinels complete Day 7, then the remaining 4 participants in Group 1 may enroll and sentinel dosing will begin with 4 participants in Group 2 (0.5 mL). If no halting rules have been met after Group 2 sentinels complete Day 7, then the remaining 4 participants in Group 2 may enroll and sentinel dosing will begin with 4 participants in Group 3 (1.0 mL). If no halting rules have been met after Group 3 sentinels complete Day 7, then the remaining 4 participants in Group 3 may enroll.
Phase 2: Once a review of the safety and immunogenicity is completed in Phase 1 then an expansion Phase 2 will commence utilizing the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). Fifty (50) healthy participants meeting eligibility criteria will be enrolled.
Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Volunteers who were assigned female sex at birth and are of must agree to use an acceptable method of from at least 21 days prior to study Day 0 until at least 90 days after vaccination. Volunteers who are physically capable of pregnancy (not sterilized and still menstruating or within 1 year of the last menses if menopausal) in sexual relationships with individuals born male must use an acceptable method of contraception during this period. Acceptable methods of contraception include a sterile sexual partner, hormonal contraceptives (combined estrogen and progestogen containing), hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable or implantable), intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomized partner, sexual abstinence.
Has negative β-HCG (beta human chorionic gonadotropin) pregnancy test (urine or serum) at screening and prior to study product administration.
Sexually active participants assigned male sex at birth must be willing to use an effective method of contraception (i.e., condoms or be anatomically sterile) from Day of Injection through Day 28.
Exclusion Criteria:
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.
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.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
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 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.
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.
Able to have children. For women this usually means from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery; for men, unless permanently sterile. Read who the line is about — participants, women, men, or their partners.
Criteria about it usually ask for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.
Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
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.

Ran from Jun 2024 to primary completion in Mar 2025, 9 months.
Of 80 industry-sponsored phase 1/2 interventional studies under COVID-19, half reached primary completion within 10 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 19. This study's 9 months is close to that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 187 studies reached it within 11 months; a quarter within 4 and three quarters within 20.
