Summary

This study is a large-scale investigation (Phase 3) into a new booster shot designed specifically for teenagers. The booster targets a particular variant of COVID-19, Omicron XBB.1.5. The main focus is on safety: researchers want to see if this new booster is safe for teenagers who have already received two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. To ensure a fair comparison, the study will use a double-blind approach. This means two groups of teenagers will receive booster shots, but neither the teenagers nor the researchers giving the shots will know beforehand which version of the booster each person gets. The study will also assess how well the body fights the virus after the booster shot.

Conditions

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

NVX-CoV2601 co-formulated Omicron XBB.1.5 SARS-CoV-2 rS vaccine

Coformulated Omicron XBB.1.5 SARS-CoV-2 rS vaccine with Matrix-M adjuvant: supplied as a solution for preparation for injection, at a concentration of 10 µg antigen and 100 µg adjuvant per mL. All injections will be administered in a 0.5 mL injection volume at a dose of 5 µg antigen with 50 µg Matrix-M adjuvant.

BIOLOGICAL

Prototype/XBB.1.5 Bivalent Vaccine (5 µg)

A site-mixed bivalent vaccine prepared by combining 0.25 mL of NVX-CoV2373 and 0.25 mL NVX-CoV2601. All injections will be administered in a 0.5 mL injection volume at a dose of 5 µg total antigen (2.5 µg prototype antigen + 2.5 µg Omicron XBB.1.5 antigen) with 50 µg Matrix-M adjuvant.
