Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Participants in Part A are blinded to their treatment assignment, with participants receiving either 2 active mRNA-1273 vaccine doses or placebo. Part B of the study is designed to offer participants to be unblinded so that participants who received placebo in Part A can request 2 doses of open-label mRNA-1273 vaccine. Additionally, participants who originally received 1 or 2 doses of mRNA-1273 (50 microgram \[μg\] or 100 μg vaccine) during Part A, will have the opportunity to request to receive a single booster dose of mRNA-1273.
Part C will be a proof-of-concept rollover study to evaluate a vaccine to treat mutations of SARS-CoV2, such as the S-protein of the B.1.351 variant. Part C will include approximately 60 participants, who are currently enrolled in Moderna's Phase 3 mRNA-1273-P301 study (NCT04470427), have already been unblinded, and have previously received 2 doses of mRNA-1273 at least 6 months earlier. At enrollment into Part C of this study, their participation in mRNA-1273-P301 study will be terminated. Part C will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of 2 dose levels (20 µg and 50 µg) of mRNA-1273.351 and mRNA-1273/mRNA-1273.351 mixture (50 µg total), given as a single booster dose.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
1. Male or female, 18 years of age or older at the time of consent (Screening Visit, Day 0). For Part B, participants must have been previously enrolled in the mRNA-1273 P201 study.

Nonchildbearing potential is defined as surgically sterile (history of bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy) or postmenopausal (defined as amenorrhea for ≥12 consecutive months prior to Screening (Day 0) without an alternative medical cause). A follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level may be measured at the discretion of the investigator to confirm postmenopausal status.

Adequate female contraception is defined as consistent and correct use of a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved contraceptive method in accordance with the product label. For example:
* Barrier method (such as condoms, diaphragm, or cervical cap) used in conjunction with spermicide
* Intrauterine device
* Prescription hormonal contraceptive taken or administered via oral (pill), transdermal (patch), subdermal, or IM route
* Sterilization of a female participant's monogamous male partner prior to entry into the study Note: periodic abstinence (for example, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
6. Male participants engaging in activity that could result in pregnancy of sexual partners must agree to practice adequate contraception from the time of the first injection and through 3 months after the last injection.
Adequate contraception for male participants is defined as:
* Monogamous relationship with a female partner using an intrauterine device or hormonal contraception (described above)
* Use of barrier methods and spermicide
* History of surgical sterilization
* Male participants with partners who have become pregnant prior to Screening are eligible to participate in the study.
