Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of 3 ascending doses of UB-612 COVID-19 vaccine in healthy adults, aged from 20 to 55 years old.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of 3 ascending doses of UB-612 COVID-19 vaccine in healthy adults. Up to 60 subjects (20 subjects per group) will be enrolled into this study. Subjects in each group will be enrolled to receive two doses of UB-612 vaccine at 28-day interval (Day 0 and Day 28).

9. With certain underlying medical conditions which are at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
10. Congenital or acquired angioedema.
11. Immune deficiency/disorder, whether due to genetic defect, immunodeficiency disease or immunosuppressive therapy.
12. Platelet disorder or other bleeding disorder may cause injection contraindication.
