Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of participants with immediate unsolicited adverse events (AE)
Within 30 minutes post vaccination

Immediate unsolicited AEs were defined as having an onset within 30 minutes post vaccination.

Number of participants with injection site and systemic solicited adverse reactions (ARs)
Through 7 days post vaccination

Injection site solicited ARs included injection site pain, injection site erythema (redness), and injection site swelling. Systemic solicited ARs included fever, chills, headache, myalgia (muscle aches and pains), and fatigue (physical or mental tiredness).

Number of participants with any unsolicited adverse events (AEs)
Through 28 days post vaccination

Unsolicited AEs were any AEs reported in addition to predefined solicited ARs.

Number of participants with serious adverse events (SAEs), Medically-attended adverse events (MAAEs), and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs)
Through 12 months post vaccination

An SAE is an AE meeting one or more of: resulted in death; was immediately life-threatening; required or prolonged in-patient hospitalization; resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; was a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or was an important medical event that may have jeopardized the participant or required intervention to prevent the above. MAAEs are AEs leading to medically attended visits that were not routine physical examination or vaccination visits (eg, urgent care, emergency room, or unscheduled visits to/from medical personnel, including telemedicine). An AESI was an event of scientific and medical interest, specific to understanding the safety profile of the investigational vaccine, requiring close monitoring and rapid communication by Investigators to the Sponsor.

Frequently asked questions about AZD9838

What is AZD9838 used for?

AZD9838 is a monoclonal antibody being developed for COVID-19, specifically for the prevention or treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection. It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development as an investigational therapy for this infectious disease indication.

Who makes AZD9838?

AZD9838 is being developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol AZN. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of this monoclonal antibody for COVID-19.

What phase is AZD9838 in?

AZD9838 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. A Phase 1 clinical trial has been completed to assess its safety and immunogenicity in healthy volunteers for COVID-19.

What clinical trials is AZD9838 in?

AZD9838 has been evaluated in one clinical trial with the identifier NCT06147063. This was a randomized, active-controlled Phase 1 study that assessed the immunogenicity and safety of a mRNA-VLP vaccine for COVID-19. The trial enrolled 243 participants in the United States and has been completed.

Is AZD9838 the same as a vaccine?

AZD9838 is a monoclonal antibody, not a vaccine. The clinical trial NCT06147063 evaluated a mRNA-VLP vaccine's immunogenicity and safety for COVID-19, but the drug itself is a monoclonal antibody. The trial was active-controlled, meaning it compared the vaccine against an active control.
