Sanofi's COVID vaccine trial ends early – what we know

NCT ID NCT04904549

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This Phase 3 study tested two Sanofi COVID-19 vaccines (one targeting the original virus, another targeting two variants) in about 24,000 adults. The goal was to see if they could prevent COVID-19 safely. The trial was terminated early, so final results are limited, but the data may still help improve future vaccines.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
SARS-CoV-2 adjuvanted recombinant protein vaccine (monovalent and bivalent)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new option for COVID-19 vaccination, potentially offering protection against multiple variants.
What could go wrong
The trial was terminated early, so data may be incomplete. As a Phase 3 study, it was large but results may not apply to newer variants.
