The Safety of Administering a Second Dose of a COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine in Individuals Who Experienced a Systemic Allergic Reaction to an Initial Dose

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Background: Some people have allergic reactions to COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. Researchers want to learn more about these reactions to provide guidance on who can safely receive the vaccines, including a second dose in people who had a reaction to the first. Objective: To study the safety of giving a second mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose to people who had a systemic allergic reaction to their first dose. Eligibility: People aged 16-69 who had a systemic allergic reaction to their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Design: Individuals who have underlying health issues may need to come to the NIH for screening tests to make sure they are safe to receive the vaccine. People who are eligible to participate in the study will be admitted to the NIH hospital and stay for at least 4 days. They will give urine samples. They will have a nasal swab SARS-CoV-2 test. They will have an intravenous line placed in each arm. They will get the study vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine) and one dose of placebo on different days. They will have breathing tests. They may have clinical photography if they develop a rash. Participants will have 4 follow-up visits - 2 by phone and 2 in-person visits at the NIH campus . They will have allergy skin testing at one visit. Drops of different allergens or controls will be placed on their back or arm. The skin under each drop will be scratched with a tool. If the results are negative, a small amount of allergen will be injected just below the surface of their skin. Participants who have no or only a mild allergic reaction to the second dose of the vaccine may be eligible to receive a Booster dose at the NIH. Participation will last for approximately 5 months.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Study Description: This is a single-site study to determine the safety of administering a dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine (Comirnaty) to individuals who experienced a systemic allergic reaction to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna mRNA vaccine, and to investigate possible mechanisms underlying allergic reactions. Objectives: Primary Objective: 1. Assess the proportion of participants who develop a systemic allergic reaction (Consortium for Food Allergy Research grade 2 reaction and above regardless of tryptase, or CoFAR grade 1 with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after previously demonstrating a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Secondary Objectives: Assess the proportion of participants who develop a severe systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 3 reaction or higher regardless of tryptase) to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after previously demonstrating a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Assess the proportion of participants who develop a mild-moderate allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 1 or 2 reaction regardless of tryptase) to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after previously demonstrating a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Assess the proportion of participants with anaphylactic reactions (Levels 1-3) per Brighton Collaboration Criteria (see Appendix B) to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after previously demonstrating a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Assess the proportion of participants who develop a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 reaction or higher regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after previously demonstrating a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine compared to the rate of these reactions following placebo administration. Compare the severity of allergic reactions to the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine to the severity of the reaction following administration of a subsequent dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine in individuals who experienced a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR grade 2 reaction and above regardless of tryptase, or CoFAR grade 1 with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Exploratory Objectives: Assess the risk of having a systemic allergic reaction to a dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in participants who previously demonstrated a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the same vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 according to baseline covariates. Examine possible mechanisms of allergic reactions to mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines. Assess innate and adaptive immune responses, including functional antibody levels, to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine Investigate mental health characteristics of participants who experience an allergic reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine. Assess psychological impact of allergic reactions to the COVID-19 vaccine and examine changes in stress levels over time. Assess anxiety levels in participants and examine changes in anxiety over time. Assess the proportion of participants who experience no reaction or only a mild reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or below) to a booster dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine after previously demonstrating a systemic allergic reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or 3 reaction regardless of tryptase OR Grade 1 reaction with elevated tryptase [1.2 X baseline plus 2 ng/mL]) to their first full dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine and no allergic reaction or a mild reaction (CoFAR Grade 2 or below) to a subsequent (second) dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
