Primary outcome | |
In the register 1) Virologically confirmed (RT-PCR-positive) symptomatic COVID-19 cases of any severity that occurs for the first time at least 14 days (= 15 days) after the second vaccination; 2) All serious adverse events (SAEs), other medically attended AEs (MAAEs), and adverse events of special interest (AESIs) from the first dose to 12 months after the second dose in all subjects; 3) All solicited adverse events within 7 days following the first and second vaccinations in all subjects; 4) All unsolicited adverse events that occur during the interval between doses and within 30 days after the second vaccination in all subjects. | |
In the report Serious adverse events (SAE), medically attended adverse events (MAAE) and adverse events of special interest (AESI) from day 0 (after the first dose) through 12 months after the final dose; solicited adverse events (AE) for 7 days after each dose; and unsolicited adverse events for 30 days after each dose; Symptomatic COVID-19 confirmed by reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) test occurring at least 14 days after the second dose in the per-protocol population (participants who were followed-up for at least two weeks after the second dose and had no major protocol deviatiations) | |

Some concerns |
General comment | n addition to the pre-print article, the study registry was used in data extraction and risk of bias assessment. Preliminary analysis as of the cutoff date July 31, 2022. Extracted here only the stratum of participants with COVID-19 vaccination history.Included participants might have been previously vaccinated with 1, 2 3 or 4 doses of COVID-19 vaccine before receiving the intervention.The target sample size specified in the registry for both strata combined (N=31,038) was achieved. There is no change from the trial registration in the intervention and control treatments. |
