Summary

This trial is testing two different vaccines for safety and efficacy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who've had at least two COVID-19 vaccine doses ≥6 months ago, or are unvaccinated. They must be in good health or with stable conditions and not planning pregnancy soon. Those previously vaccinated can join if they're scheduled for their first dose within 55 days before the study.
What is being tested?
The study tests immune response and safety of mixing different COVID-19 vaccines (Covifenz, mRNA-1273, BNT162b2, ChAdOx1-S) across four doses and various intervals between initial shots to see how well they work together.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include typical vaccine reactions like soreness at injection site, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills, fever and nausea. Severe allergic reactions are rare but possible.
