Brief summary: This is a 2-Stage, Phase III, randomized, active-controlled, observer-blind, parallel-group, multi-center study to compare the immunogenicity and safety of SK SARS-CoV-2 recombinant nanoparticle vaccine adjuvanted with AS03 (GBP510) to ChAdOx1-S in adults aged 18 years and older.

Detailed description: The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity and safety of SK SARS-CoV-2 recombinant nanoparticle vaccine adjuvanted with AS03 (GBP510) in adults aged 18 years and older.

This study includes 2-dose schedule (28-day interval) of GBP510(Test vaccine) and ChAdOx1-S(Control vaccine) in stage1. Participants are expected to participate for up to a maximum of approximately 13 months. A 12-month study follow-up after the 2nd vaccination will be conducted. One booster dose of GBP510 is scheduled for both test group and control group in Stage2. A 12-month study follow-up after the 3rd vaccination will be conducted.

International Vaccine Institute (IVI) conducts GBP510_003 trial as co-sponsor with SK bioscience.
