About
The mRNA-1273 vaccine is being developed to prevent COVID-19, the disease resulting from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The study is designed to primarily evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and effectiveness of mRNA-1273 vaccine administered as primary series and a booster dose (BD) to an adolescent population. The study will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an mRNA-1273.222 vaccine against the SARS-CoV- 2 omicron variant as a primary series.
Full description
This is a Phase 2/3 study, with Part 1A (Blinded Phase), Part 1B (Open-label Observational Phase), Part 1C (Booster Dose [BD] Phase), which consists of Part 1C-1 and Part 1C-2, Part 2 (Open-Label), and Part 3 (Open-label). Participants in Part 1A are blinded to their treatment assignment, with participants receiving either 2 active mRNA-1273 vaccine doses or placebo. Part 1B of the study is designed to offer participants whose age group becomes Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) eligible to be unblinded so that participants who received placebo in Part 1A can request 2 doses of open-label mRNA-1273 vaccine. Part 1C-1 of the study will offer participants in Part 1A and Part 1B who are at least 5 months from the last dose, the option to request a homologous BD of mRNA-1273. Part 1C-2 is designed to provide a heterologous BD of mRNA-1273 to eligible participants who completed primary COVID-19 vaccination series with a non-Moderna vaccine under EUA and are at least 3 months from the last dose. Part 2 is an open-label design. Participants will receive 2 doses and may receive a booster dose of mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Part 3 is an open-label design. Participants will receive up to 2 doses of mRNA-1273.222 vaccine.

Inclusion criteria
For Part 1A, Part 2 and Part 3:

- Female participants of nonchildbearing potential may be enrolled in the study. Nonchildbearing potential is defined as premenarche or surgically sterile (history of bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy).
- Female participants of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study if the participant has a negative pregnancy test at Screening (Day 0), on the day of the first injection (Day 1), on the day of the second injection (Day 29 in Parts 1A and Part 2, and Day 181 in Part 3); has practiced adequate contraception or has abstained from all activities that could result in pregnancy for at least 28 days prior to the first injection (Day 1); and has agreed to continue adequate contraception or abstinence through 3 months following the second injection (Day 29 in Part 1A and Part 2, and Day 181 in Part 3).
For Part 1B:
- Participants must have been previously enrolled in mRNA-1273-P203 study.
- Female participants of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study if the participant has a negative pregnancy test on the day of the first injection (Open-Label-Day 1) and on the day of the second injection (Open-Label-Day 29).
For Part 1C-1 Homologous Booster Dose:
- Participants must have been previously enrolled in the mRNA-1273-P203 study, are actively participating in Part 1A or Part 1B and are least 5 months from the last dose.
- Female participants of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study if the participant has a negative pregnancy test on the day of the first injection (BD-Day 1).
Part 1C-2 Heterologous Booster Dose:
- Male or female, 12 to < 18 years of age at the time of consent who, in the opinion of the investigator, is in good general health based on review of medical history and screening physical examination AND has completed non-Moderna primary COVID-19 vaccination series under EUA (for example, Pfizer) at least 3 months from consent.
Exclusion criteria
For Part 1A, Part 2, and Part 3:
-
Has a known history of SARS-CoV-2 infection within 2 weeks prior to administration of investigational product (IP) or known close contact with anyone with laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection of COVID-19 within 2 weeks prior to administration of IP (Part 2 participants only). For Part 3 participants, known history of SARS-CoV-2 infection within 90 days prior to administration of IP or known close contact with anyone with laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19 within 90 days prior to administration of IP.

Participants who meet this criterion may have visits rescheduled within the relevant study visit windows. Afebrile participants with minor illnesses can be enrolled at the discretion of the Investigator.
