Immunogenicity, safety, and reactogenicity of a half- versus full-dose BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) booster following a two-dose ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, BBIBP-CorV, or Gam-COVID-Vac priming schedule in Mongolia: a randomised, controlled, non-inferiority trial.

Summary

This clinical trial is a single-blind, randomised study to determine the reactogenicity and immunogenicity of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech) as booster dose in adults, who have previously received either Sinopharm (BBIBP-CorV®), AstraZeneca (ChAdOx1-S, or Vaxzevria®) or Sputnik V (Gam-COVID-Vac®) as their primary doses 6 to 9 months earlier. Both standard and fractional doses will be tested. Participants are healthy adults aged 18 years or older, with no upper age limit. Procedures will be implemented to ensure participants of all ages (aged 18 and above) are included and that there is an even age distribution (<50 and ≥50 years) in each group. There will be a total of 6 groups (Sinopharm-standard dose Pfizer, Sinopharm-fractional dose Pfizer, AstraZeneca-standard dose Pfizer, AstraZeneca-fractional dose Pfizer, Sputnik - standard dose Pfizer, Sputnik - fractional dose Pfizer), with 200 participants per group for Sinopharm and 100 for AstraZeneca and Sputnik.
