Part 1: An open label, dose and age escalation phase to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of VXA-CoV2-1.1-S with a repeat-dose vaccination schedule in healthy adults aged 18 - 75 years old that are either vaccine naive or have received prior vaccination with an mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19. Part 2: This phase will assess the efficacy of prophylactic VXA-CoV2-1.1-S against confirmed COVID-19 occurring from 7 days after second dose with a repeat-dose vaccination schedule in healthy adults compared to placebo. Safety and immunogenicity of VXA-CoV2-1.1-S will also be evaluated in this phase.

Use of antiviral medications , including anti-retrovirals within 1 week before vaccination or planned use during the active study period. 12. Use of antibiotics, proton pump inhibitors, H2 blockers or antacids within 1 week before vaccination or planned use during the active study period. 13. Use of medications known to affect the immune function (e.g., systemic corticosteroids and others) within 14 days before vaccination or planned use during the active study period. 14.
