A multicenter, 3-arm randomized dose finding study in the UK to evaluate safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a vaccine candidate against Covid-19. 150 healthy volunteers will be enrolled and receive two shots of the vaccine candidate. All participants who receive two doses of the vaccine candidate will be invited to participate in the Booster phase.

Participant has practiced an adequate method of contraception during the 30 days before screening (Visit 0). 2. Participant has a negative serum or urine pregnancy test at screening (Visit 0) or Visit 1, respectively. 3. Participant agrees to employ adequate birth control measures up to Day 106 (Visit 5).

Participant has a rash, dermatological condition or tattoos that would, in the opinion of the Investigator, interfere with injection site reaction rating. 21. Participant has a known or suspected problem with alcohol or drug abuse as determined by the Investigator. 22. Participant has any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may compromise the Participant's well-being, might interfere with evaluation of study endpoints, or would limit the Participant's ability to complete the study. 23. Participant is committed to an institution (by virtue of an order issued either by the judicial or the administrative authorities). 24. Participant has participated in another clinical study involving an investigational medicinal product (IMP) or device within 4 weeks prior to Visit 0 (screening) or is scheduled to participate in another clinical study involving an IMP, or device during the course of this study. 25. Participant is a member of the team conducting the study or in a dependent relationship with one of the study team members. Exclusion Criteria for Booster Phase - Participants who meet ANY of the following criteria are NOT eligible for Booster phase: - B1. Clinically significant infection or other acute illness, including fever = 38°C within 48 hours prior to the planned Booster vaccination. - B2. Participant has an acute or recent infection not due to SARS-CoV-2 and is not symptom-free in the week prior to the Booster vaccination (Visit 7). - B3. Participant has received any vaccine within 30 days prior Visit 7, with the exception of the seasonal influenza vaccination. Participants will be encouraged to receive this vaccination at least 7 days after their Booster vaccine. - B4. Participant has abnormal findings in any required study investigations (including medical history, physical examination, and clinical laboratory) that is considered clinically relevant by the Investigator. - B5. Participant has received immuno-suppressive therapy within 4 weeks prior to Visit 7 or is expected to receive immunosuppressive therapy during the study. Immunosuppressive therapy is defined as administration of chronic (longer than 2 weeks) prednisone or equivalent = 0.05 mg/kg/day within 4 weeks prior to Visit 7 (topical and inhaled steroids are allowed), radiation therapy or immunosuppressive cytotoxic drugs or monoclonal antibodies in the previous 3 years. - B6. Participant has clinical conditions representing a contraindication to intramuscular vaccination and blood draws. - B7. Participant is pregnant (positive urine pregnancy test at Visit 7, respectively), has plans to become pregnant up to 3 months after the Booster vaccination. - B8. Participant has a rash, dermatological condition that would, in the opinion of the Investigator, interfere with injection site reaction rating. - B9. Participant has a known or suspected problem with alcohol or drug abuse as determined by the Investigator. - B10. Participant has any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may compromise the Participant's well-being, might interfere with evaluation of study endpoints, or would limit the Participant's ability to complete the study. - B11. Participant is committed to an institution (by virtue of an order issued either by the judicial or the administrative authorities). - B12. Participant has participated in another clinical study involving an investigational medicinal product (IMP) or device within 4 weeks prior to Visit 7 or is scheduled to participate in another clinical study involving an IMP, or device during the course of this study. |
