General information

ZF2001 is an experimental COVID-19 protein subunit vaccine, which carries a dimeric RBD of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein serving as the immunogen. It showed a good safety and immunogenicity profile in phase I and phase II clinical trials. A three-dose regimen was suggested for phase III clinical trials (Yang et al., 2021).

The vaccine was generally well-tolerated. The vaccine formulations elicited humoral and cellular (balanced Th1/Th2) responses. A three-dose regimen provided a better immune response compared to a two-dose regimen. The higher dosing scheme did not have superior outcomes to the lower one; therefore, the regimen of 3 doses of 25 μg was selected for a phase III trial. Sample size (completed immunogenicity analyses): Phase I (three doses): 20 (25 μg dose group) + 20 (50 μg dose group) + 10 placebo. Phase II: two doses: 150 (25 μg dose group) + 150 (50 μg dose group) + 150 placebo; three doses: 148 (25 μg dose group) + 148 (50 μg dose group) + 146 placebo. Dosage: Two to three doses, 25 μg or 50 μg each, 30 days apart. Primary outcomes: Safety (phase I) and immunogenicity (phase II).
