Participant Flow

Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of NasoVAX in healthy adults 18 to 49 years of age. Subjects were screened within 28 days of randomization.

60 subjects who met all inclusion and no exclusion criteria and provided written informed consent were enrolled into 3 sequential cohorts of 20 subjects each defined by the vaccine dose (1×10\^9, 1×10\^10,1×10\^11 vp). Within each cohort and its sentinel group, subjects were randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive 1 intranasal dose of NasoVAX or placebo
