Brief Summary
This is a phase-II seamlessly
followed by phase-III double-blind randomised study to assess safety, tolerability,
reactogenicity and immunogenicity of the Biological E’s CORBEVAXvaccine in children and adolescents aged
between <18 years - ≥5 years with placebo as a control.
The enrolment of subjects will be done in an age stepdown approach with
two age subgroups under each treatment arm viz. age subgroup-1 with subjects
<18 to ≥12 years of age and age subgroup-2 with
subjects <12 to ≥5 years of age. There would be two treatment arms/groups in this study i.e Test Vaccine Group and Placebo Group. All eligible subjects will be randomised by
treatment planned and by age into respective arms.
The study will be conducted in compliance with GSR 227(E),
ICH and Indian good clinical practice guidelines in force at the time of study
conduct.
