NCT05808166

Brief Summary

This is a phase II randomized, observer-blinded, placebo-controlled study with 3 arms enrolling a total of 2,358 participants. The arms are composed of Arm 1, pregnant participants receiving Hecolin® (N=1,104) with immunogenicity subset (n=150), Arm 2, pregnant participants receiving placebo (N=1,104) with immunogenicity subset (n=150), and Arm 3, non-pregnant participants receiving Hecolin® (N=150) of which all participants in this arm will be included in the immunogenicity subset.

Study Arms (3)

Pregnant participant receiving Hecolin®

EXPERIMENTAL

1 (N=1,104): Pregnant participants receiving Hecolin® (n=150 immunogenicity subset). For Arm 1, pregnant participants will receive 2 doses of Hecolin® at a 4 weeks interval and the third dose will be administered postpartum, approximately 20 weeks after the second dose.

Biological: Hecolin® (Recombinant Hepatitis E Vaccine (Escherichia coli)).

Pregnant participants receiving placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Arm 2 (N=1,104): Pregnant participants receiving placebo (n= 150 immunogenicity subset). For Arm 2, pregnant participants will receive 2 doses of placebo at a 4 weeks interval and the third dose will be administered postpartum, approximately 20 weeks after the second dose.

Other: Isotonic Sodium Chloride injection

Non-Pregnant participants receiving Hecolin®

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
