Safety and Immunogenicity of Intranasal Razi Cov Pars as a COVID-19 Booster Vaccine in Adults: Promising Results from a Groundbreaking Clinical Trial.

Protective antibodies in the upper respiratory tract prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the community. Intranasal vaccines could raise the specific secretory IgA and IgG levels. This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Razi Cov Pars (RCP) intranasal recombinant protein subunit COVID-19 vaccine as a booster in adults.

Analysis of immunological and biochemical parameters after booster dose vaccination using protein-based and inactivated virus vaccine for safety.

Introduction: Heterologous vaccines enhance the immune response to new variants and allow flexibility in booster administration when the original vaccine is unavailable. Studies show that heterologous boosters can generate comparable or superior antibody responses compared to homologous boosters. Considering rare side effects is essential in evaluating COVID-19 vaccines, especially those associated with ChAdOx1-S (AstraZeneca) and Ad26.

Safety and efficacy of RCP recombinant spike protein covid-19 vaccine compared to Sinopharm BBIBP: A phase III, non-inferiority trial.

Background: We conducted a phase III, non-inferiority trial comparing safety and efficacy of RCP recombinant spike protein Covid-19 vaccine to BBIBP (Sinopharm).

Methods: Adult Iranian population received RCP or BBIBP in a randomized, double blind and an additional non-randomized open labeled trial arms. Eligible participants signed a written informed consent and received two intramuscular injections three weeks apart.

Anti-Bacterial Activity of Four Distinct Propolis Extracts against and ; Etiological Agent of American and European Foulbrood Disease of Honeybees.

Four different propolis samples obtained from different regions of Iran were evaluated for their antibacterial effects against the bacterial agents responsible for two important honeybee diseases. () and (), as the etiological agents of American foulbrood (AFB) and European foulbrood (EFB) diseases, were subjected to propolis ethanolic extracts in the agar well diffusion assay. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBC) of the antibacterial effects of the samples against the two indicator organisms were determined by the microdilution technique using different concentrations of the propolis extracts.

Phase II, Safety and Immunogenicity of RAZI Cov Pars (RCP) SARS Cov-2 Vaccine in Adults Aged 18-70 Years; A Randomized, Double-Blind Clinical Trial.

Background: This study explores the safety and immunogenicity of the Razi-Cov-Pars (RCP) SARS Cov-2 recombinant spike protein vaccine.

Method: In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, adults aged 18-70 were randomly allocated to receive selected 10 µg/200 µl vaccine strengths or placebo (adjuvant). It included two intramuscular injections at days 0 and 21, followed by an intranasal dose at day 51.
