Summary
This trial is testing new versions of a COVID-19 vaccine to ensure they are safe and effective. It includes healthy participants who have already received previous COVID-19 vaccines. The vaccine works by using RNA to help the body recognize and fight the virus.
Who is the study for?
Healthy individuals aged 12-55 with prior COVID-19 vaccinations, including a booster shot received at least 90 days before the study. Participants must be able to consent and follow the study schedule. Excluded are those on immunosuppressants, with severe vaccine reactions or bleeding disorders, pregnant/breastfeeding women, and anyone with conditions that may risk participation.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing new RNA COVID-19 vaccines in people who've had previous vaccinations. It involves single doses of various bivalent (targeting two strains) or monovalent (single strain) vaccines to assess safety and immune response over approximately six months with multiple clinic visits for blood sampling.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical vaccine reactions like soreness at injection site, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills, fever, nausea; rare risks may involve allergic reactions or heart inflammation as seen in very few cases with similar vaccines.

Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines, such as the BNT162b RNA-based candidates, work by instructing cells to produce the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. This spike protein triggers the immune system to produce antibodies and activate T-cells, preparing the body to fight off the actual virus if encountered.
This mechanism is important for COVID-19 patients as it provides immunity without causing the disease, thereby reducing the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death.
