study to evaluate efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of the sputnik-light

Conditions: COVID-19 Prevention

Summary: the study global sponsor is planning several parallel studies of sputnik-light vector vaccine across the globe in united arab emirates, russia and possibly in other countries in case of confirmation associated with the same medical product under similar protocols. the key objective of this study is to be conducted in several parallel studies of the same vaccine above the other countries. using similar protocols on a portfolio basis of studies let us collect data for efficacy, immunogenicity, safety and tolerability confirmation of the sputnik-light vaccine.

this study is randomized, double-blind (blinded for the study subject and investigators), placebo-controlled international multicenter study in the parallel assignment of the subjects to assess efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of the sputnik-light vector vaccine in adults in the sars-сov-2 infection prophylactic treatment the subjects will be randomized into two groups in the ratio of 1:3; a control group (1500 subjects receiving placebo) and a study group (4500 subjects receiving the sputnik-light vector vaccine against the sars-сov-2-induced covid19 infection). for the evaluation of immunogenicity an unbalanced design is adopted of the placebo and vaccinated group at a 1:3 ratio. subsequently the number of subjects in subgroup a tested will be 1076 subjects, distributed as follows: 269 in the placebo group and 807 in the vaccinated group, also randomized into two groups in the ratio of 1:3 who will attend for assessment of immunogenicity compared to baseline. each subjects will participate in the trial for approximately 6 months after the first dose of the study vaccine/placebo and will have at least tree on-site visits, including a screening visit to the study clinical site during the study period and several observation phone call/ tele-consultation visits during the study
