NCT05007275

Brief Summary

This study will test the COVID-19 vaccine candidate AZD1222 to investigate its safety, tolerability and capability of boosting immune responses both in the blood and the lung when administered to the respiratory tract, in volunteers previously vaccinated by intramuscular COVID-19 vaccination. Using standardised methods, we will measure immune responses in the blood, nose and lower airway and compare with data from ongoing clinical trials of intramuscular vaccination. Thus, we will show the effect of the delivery method and provide the critical information required to begin further clinical trials to show the efficacy of this needle-free vaccination strategy for booster vaccination.

Eligibility Criteria

Age30 Years - 55 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Healthy adults aged 30-55 years.
  • Able and willing (in the Investigator's opinion) to comply with all study requirements.
  • Willing to allow the investigators to discuss the volunteer's medical history with their General Practitioner and access all medical records when relevant to study procedures.
  • For females only, willingness to practice continuous highly effective contraception (see below) during the study and a negative pregnancy test on the day(s) of screening, bronchoscopy and vaccination.
  • Agreement to refrain from blood donation during the course of the study.
  • Provide written informed consent.
  • Have had a complete COVID-19 vaccination course (as one or two intramuscular injections depending on the authorisation schedule) with the last injection at least 30 days before enrolment
  • Sero-suitable i.e. with evidence of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-induced antibody responses but no evidence of previous SARS-CoV-2 infection by an authorised serology test. Those with indeterminate levels and no history of laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection may be included or excluded at the PI's discretion on a case-by-case basis.

You may not qualify if:

  • History of laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection.
  • Acute upper respiratory infection (URI or sinusitis) in the past 6 weeks
  • Prior receipt of any vaccine within ≤30 days prior to enrolment or planned receipt of any vaccine within 30 days after the study vaccination
  • Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the planned administration of the vaccine candidate.
  • Inhaled bronchodilator or steroid use within the last 12 months
  • Intranasal steroid use within the last 6 months
  • Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient state, including HIV infection; asplenia; recurrent severe infections and use of immunosuppressant medication within the past 6 months, except topical steroids.

  • History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the AZD1222 vaccine.
  • Any history of angioedema.
  • Any history of anaphylaxis.
  • Pregnancy, lactation or willingness/intention to become pregnant during the study.
  • History of cancer (except basal cell carcinoma of the skin and cervical carcinoma in situ).
  • History of serious psychiatric condition likely to affect participation in the study (e.g. ongoing severe depression, history of admission to an in-patient psychiatric facility, recent suicidal ideation, history of suicide attempt, bipolar disorder, personality disorder, alcohol and drug dependency, severe eating disorder, psychosis, use of mood stabilisers or antipsychotic medication).

Intervention Model
SINGLE GROUP
Model Details: This is a Phase I, open label non-randomised dose escalation study in healthy adults aged 30-55 years recruited in the UK. AZD1222 will be administered by inhalation via vibrating mesh nebuliser. The study will assess safety and immunogenicity of AZD1222 with blood and respiratory tract samples. The dose evaluation will be conducted in a single centre supervised by the Chief Investigator and senior clinician experienced in first-in human studies in a cohort of 30 individuals. Approximately 14 days before vaccination, participants will undergo bronchoscopy to sample their lower airways, obtaining bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), bronchial lining fluid and bronchial tissue. This will be repeated at day +21 and day +182 post-vaccination.

Data Sharing

IPD Sharing
Will share

The expectation is that after analysis the data from this study will be widely distributed in the medical and scientific community. Facilitated with presentations at local, national and international meetings, the hope is to publish widely in the medical literature. In addition, there is an excellent media department at Imperial College that will publicise research that has public interest when it is published. The Investigators will be involved in reviewing drafts of the manuscripts, abstracts, press releases and any other publications arising from the study. Data from the study may also be used as part of a thesis for a PhD or MD. All data will be anonymised and aggregated or pseudonymised; no identifying participant information will be published.
