Immunogenicity and safety of a SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine (SYS6006) in healthy Chinese participants: A randomized, observer-blinded, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mRNA vaccine enables quick upgrade of antigen sequence to combat emerging new variants. In an observer-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial, immunologically naïve 300 adults and 150 older participants were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive two doses of 20 µg or 30 µg of a SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine (SYS6006) or placebo. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded through 30 days after the second dose.
