Primary outcome | |
In the register 1) Percentage of participants reporting local reactions [ Time Frame: For 7 days after dose 1 and dose 2 ] Pain at the injection site, redness, and swelling as self-reported on electronic diaries; 2) Percentage of participants reporting systemic events [ Time Frame: For 7 days after dose 1 and dose 2 ] Fever, fatigue, headache, chills, vomiting, diarrhea, new or worsened muscle pain, and new or worsened joint pain as self-reported on electronic diaries; 3) Percentage of participants reporting adverse events [ Time Frame: From dose 1 through 1 month after the last dose ] As elicited by investigational site staff; 4) Percentage of participants reporting serious adverse events [ Time Frame: From dose 1 through 12 months after the last dose ] As elicited by investigational site staff; 5) Percentage of subset participants with abnormal hematology and chemistry laboratory values [ Time Frame: 1 day after dose 1 ] As measured at the local laboratory; 6) Percentage of subset participants with abnormal hematology and chemistry laboratory values [ Time Frame: 7 days after dose 1 ] As measured at the local laboratory; 7) Percentage of subset participants with abnormal hematology and chemistry laboratory values [ Time Frame: 7 days after dose 2 ] As measured at the local laboratory; 8) Percentage of subset participants with grading shifts in hematology and chemistry laboratory assessments [ Time Frame: Between baseline and 1 day after dose 1 ] As measured at the local laboratory; 9) Percentage of subset participants with grading shifts in hematology and chemistry laboratory assessments [ Time Frame: Between baseline and 7 days after dose 1 ] As measured at the local laboratory; 10) Percentage of subset participants with grading shifts in hematology and chemistry laboratory assessments [ Time Frame: Between before dose 2 and 7 days after dose 2 ] As measured at the local laboratory; 11) SARS-CoV-2 serum neutralizing antibody levels, expressed as GMTs [ Time Frame: 1 month after dose 2 ] As measured at the central laboratory; 12) GMFR in SARS-CoV-2 serum neutralizing titers [ Time Frame: From before vaccination to 1 month after dose 2 ] As measured at the central laboratory; 13) SARS-CoV-2 S1-binding IgG levels, expressed as GMCs [ Time Frame: 1 month after dose 2 ] as measured at the central laboratory; 14) GMFR in SARS-CoV-2 S1-binding IgG levels [ Time Frame: From before vaccination to 1 month after dose 2 ] as measured at the central laboratory | |
In the report 1) local reactions or 2) systemic events for 7 days after each dose; 3) adverse events from dose 1 through 1 month after dose 2; 4) serious AEs (SAEs) collected from dose 1 through 12 months after dose 2 (reported to 1 month after dose 2 in this report); 5) hematology and clinical chemistry laboratory parameters up to 7 days after dose 2; 6) geometric mean titers (GMTs) of SARS-CoV-2 neutralization 1 month after dose 2; 7) geometric mean fold rises (GMFRs) of neutralizing titers from baseline to 1 month after dose 2. | |

Risk of bias Overall The overall risk of bias reported in the table corresponds to the highest risk of bias for the outcomes assessed for the systematic review |
Low |
General comment | In addition to the published article, the supplementary materials, prospective study registry, and protocol were used in data extraction and risk of bias assessment. The primary outcomes in the article reflect those in the registry and protocol. The study size was not based on any formal hypothesis test. |
