Brief Summary   Study Title: A Seamless Phase II/ III, Double-blind, Multi-centre, Randomized Clinical Trial to Evaluate Immunogenicity and Safety of BBV87, an Inactivated Chikungunya Virus Vaccine in Healthy Subjects 12-65 Years of Age
 Protocol ID: BBIL/CHIKV/II-III/2019 
Clinical Development Phase: Phase II/III
Study Indication: Active immunization for prevention of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection
Number of Study Sites: The study will be conducted at approximately 8 sites across India 
Name of the Investigational Vaccine: Inactivated Chikungunya Virus Vaccine (BBV87)
Name of Control Vaccine:  Phase II and  Phase III: Placebo  
Phase II

Study Design:  The current study is designed as a seamless Phase II/III study in healthy subjects, with Phase II being an age de-escalation, dose finding study followed by a Phase III study, which is aimed at evaluation of safety, immunogenicity and lot-to-lot consistency of BBV87. The immunogenicity and safety data of 600 subjects randomized in Phase II study receiving BBV87 low dose /BBV87 high dose/placebo in a two-dose schedule, will be presented to the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB). Post approval from DSMB, the dose strength of BBV87 to be used in the Phase III study will be selected and the Phase III study will be initiated to randomize approximately 1000 subjects.
