Brief summary
This study will assess the safety and immunogenicity of AG0302-COVID19 in healthy volunteers.
Detailed description
This is a Phase I/II, multi-center, randomized, open-label, uncontrolled trial. Approximately 400 healthy volunteers, male or female, aged 18 years or older, will be randomized to one of the following five groups: \[IM Groups\] Group A: Vaccination 2 mg, three times at 2-week intervals (n = 80) Group B: Vaccination 4 mg, twice at 4-week intervals (n = 80) Group C: Vaccination 8 mg, twice at 4-week intervals(n = 80) \[ID Groups\] Group D: Vaccination 1 mg, three times at 2-week intervals (n = 80) Group E: Vaccination 1 mg, twice at 4-week intervals (n = 80)

Subjects with a history of COVID-19 (hearing from subjects) 3. Subjects with a history of vaccination for the prevention of COVID-19 4. Subjects who have participated in unapproved vaccine clinical trials within 1 year before the start of this study 5. Subjects with an axillary temperature of 37.5 degrees or higher at the time of screening 6. Subjects with an axillary temperature of 37.5 degrees or higher before the first vaccination 7. Subjects who have a history of anaphylaxis 8. Subjects who have a history of hypersensitivity to the ingredients of the investigational drug 9.

Subjects who have participated in clinical trials of other unapproved drugs and received the investigational drug within 4 weeks before the start of this clinical trial (starting from vaccination day) 17. Subjects who have been received a live vaccine, inactivated vaccine, or toxoid within 4 weeks before the start of this clinical trial (starting from vaccination day) 18. Subjects who have been administered with drugs that affect the immune system (excluding external preparations) such as immunomodulators (DMARDs, etc.), immunosuppressants, biologics, etc. within 4 weeks before vaccination 19. Subjects who received blood transfusion or gamma globulin therapy within 12 weeks before vaccination, or high-dose gamma globulin therapy (200 mg/kg or more) within 24 weeks before vaccination 20. Subjects who have a history of overseas travel within 4 weeks before the start of the clinical trial (starting from vaccination day) 21. Subjects who are unable to comply with the clinical trial protocol and follow up (for mental, family, social or geographical reasons) 22. Subjects who are judged to be ineligible for this clinical trial by the investigator
