Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Phase I: The primary objective of phase I of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CoVac-1 in adults with congenital or acquired B cell/antibody deficiency. Phase II: The primary objective of phase II of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the CoVac-1 vaccine in terms of induction of SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells. ;Secondary Objective: Phase I: The secondary objective of phase I of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the CoVac-1 vaccine. In addition, humoral immune responses will be assessed. Phase II: The secondary objectives of phase II of this trial are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CoVac-1. In addition, humoral immune responses will be assessed. ;Primary end point(s): Phase I Based on the primary objective the primary endpoint is defined as: • The nature, frequency, and severity of AEs and/or SAEs associated with CoVAC-1: - Solicited: ADRs/AEs occurring from the time of each injection throughout V4 days following the procedure, facilitated by use of a patient diary - Unsolicited: AEs from the time of injection throughout V5 following injection - SAEs from the time of injection until the final study visit for each subject - Incidence of AESIs until the final study visit for each subject Phase II: Based on the primary objective the primary endpoint is defined as: • Development of a CoVac-1 specific T cell response to at least one of the single SARS-CoV-2 T cell epitopes included in the CoVac-1 vaccine in > 80% of the patients until V4 measured by IFN-? ELISpot ex vivo and after in vitro T cell amplification (compared to Visit 1) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 1, Day 14, Day 28, Day 42, Day 56, Day 70, Day 98, Month 5 and 8 after peptide vaccination

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Phase I ? Cellular immunity: Development of a CoVac-1 specific T cell response to at least one of the single SARS-CoV-2 T cell epitopes included in the CoVac-1 vaccine on Visits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 measured by IFN-? ELISpot ex vivo and after in vitro T cell amplification (compared to Visit 1), this includes: ? Cellular conversion rate (CCR) at Visits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 after immunization ? Assessment of humoral immune response: Development of SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies at Visits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 after immunization (measured by Siemens sCOVG Assay at the Central Laboratory of the University Hospital Tubingen). Phase II - Solicited: ADRs/AEs occurring from the time of each injection throughout V4 following the procedure, facilitated by use of a patient diary - Unsolicited: AEs from the time of injection throughout V5 following injection - SAEs from the time of injection until the final study visit for each subject - Incidence of AESIs until the final study visit for each subject ? Assessment of humoral immune response: Development of SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies at Visits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 after immunization (measured by Siemens sCOVG Assay at the Central Laboratory of the University Hospital Tubingen).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 1, Day 14, Day 28, Day 42, Day 56, Day 70, Day 98, Month 5 and 8 after peptide vaccination
