SARS-CoV2 Infection
About this trial
This is an interventional prevention trial for SARS-CoV2 Infection
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Each subject must meet ALL of the following criteria in order to participate in this study:
- Male or non-pregnant female 18 through 65 years of age at the time of first vaccination.
Known clinical and immunization status versus SARS-CoV-2.
- For Cohort 3 participants this will be either no history of COVID-19 nor reported history of vaccination against COVID-19 by Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) vaccine or investigational product.
- For Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 participants, this will be verified receipt of investigational or Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 (by provision of either access to medical records, Washington state online vaccine registry, documentation of receipt of investigational vaccine, or Vaccine Card), with most recent vaccination 90 days or more prior to trial initiation (days of immunization will be noted, along with vaccine manufacturer).
- Understands and agrees to comply with the study procedures and provides written informed consent.
- In the opinion of the PI or designee, could and would comply with the requirements of the protocol (e.g., completion of Memory Aids, return for follow-up visits, availability for safety calls).
- Body mass index ≥18.0 and ≤35.0 kg/m2.
- Considered by the PI or designee to be in good general health as determined by medical history, clinical laboratory assessments, vital sign measurements, and physical examination findings at Screening.
- Women of childbearing potential1 must agree to use or have practiced true abstinence or use at least one acceptable primary form of contraception. These criteria are applicable to females in a heterosexual relationship and of childbearing potential (i.e., the criteria do not apply to subjects in a same sex relationship).
- Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on the day of and prior to each study vaccination.
- Must agree to refrain from donating blood or plasma during the study (outside of this study).
Exclusion Criteria:
-
To participate in this study, all subjects must meet NONE of the exclusion criteria described:
- Female subject who is breastfeeding or plans to breastfeed from the time of the first vaccination through 60 days after the last vaccination.
- Has any medical disease or condition that, in the opinion of the participating site PI or appropriate sub-investigator, precludes study participation.
- Presence of self-reported or medically documented significant medical or psychiatric condition(s).
- History of hypersensitivity or severe reactions to previous vaccinations (e.g., anaphylaxis, urticaria, other significant reaction requiring medical intervention).
- History of hypersensitivity or severe reactions to products known to contain polyethylene glycol (PEG).
- Subjects with a positive test result at Screening for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C virus antibody, or human immunodeficiency virus types 1 or 2 antibodies.
- Known or suspected alcohol or drug abuse within the past 6 months prior to Screening.
- Safety laboratory test results (hematology and chemistry) with a toxicity score ≥ Grade 2 at Screening. The inclusion of subjects with non-clinically significant (NCS) Grade 1 laboratory or vital sign abnormalities is allowed based on investigator's discretion (e.g., oral temperature is less than 100.0°F (37.8°C); pulse no greater than 100 beats per minute; systolic BP is 85 to 150 mm Hg, inclusive).
- Previous participation in other studies involving study intervention containing lipid nanoparticles.
- Clinical conditions representing a contraindication to intramuscular vaccination and blood draws.
- Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days in total) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within 6 months prior to the first vaccine dose (for corticosteroids: prednisone ≥ 20 mg/day or equivalent). Inhaled, nasal and topical steroids are allowed.
- Received immunoglobulins or any blood products within 3 months prior to any study vaccination.
- Received an investigational or non-registered medicinal product within 30 days prior to informed consent.
- Has any blood dyscrasias or significant disorder of coagulation.
- Has any chronic liver disease, including fatty liver.
- Received or plans to receive a licensed, live vaccine within 4 weeks before or after each vaccination.
- Received or plans to receive a licensed, inactivated vaccine within 2 weeks before or after each vaccination.
- Has an acute illness, as determined by the participating site PI or appropriate sub- investigator, with or without fever (oral temperature ≥38.0°C [100.4°F]) within 72 hours prior to each vaccination.
- Any medical, psychiatric, or occupational condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, might pose additional risk to the subject due to participation in the study or could interfere with evaluation of the study vaccine or interpretation of study results.
- Unknown vaccine status versus SARS-CoV-2.
- Receipt of Emergency Use Authorization or other vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 infection within 90 days prior to administration of first dose (recruits in Cohort 3 will be unimmunized; recruits in Cohorts 1 and 2 will have completed their Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) vaccine regimen at least 90 days prior to enrolment).
- Regular smoking or vaping (more than three days per week).
- Study personnel or immediate family or household member of study personnel.
- The subject has donated blood within 56 days of dosing.

Cohort 1 (previously vaccinated, two dose recipients)
Cohort 2 (previously vaccinated, single dose recipients)
Cohort 3 (previously unvaccinated)
Cohort 1 will include individuals with vaccination against COVID-19 who will receive a two-dose schedule of HDT-301 56 days apart. Dose will be escalated from low to mid to high according to predefined safety parameters.
Cohort 2 will include individuals with vaccination against COVID-19 who will receive a one-dose schedule of HDT-301. Dose will be escalated from low to mid to high according to predefined safety parameters.
Cohort 3 will include 21 individuals with no history of vaccination against COVID-19 who will receive a two-dose schedule of HDT-301 56 days apart. Dose will be escalated from low to mid to high according to predefined safety parameters.
