Safety and immunogenicity of a SARS-CoV-2 recombinant protein subunit vaccine adjuvanted with Alum + CpG 1018 in healthy Indonesian adults: A multicenter, randomized, comparative, observer-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 study.

ABSTRACT: Globally, dozens of COVID-19 vaccines are licensed under emergency or conditional authorization, but especially in low and middle-income countries, their availability varies. Indonesia decided to become independent and produce its own vaccines locally. This study investigated the safety and immunogenicity of a SARS-CoV-2 recombinant protein subunit vaccine adjuvanted with Alum + CpG 1018. This study involved 360 adults aged 18 years and above. It compared two vaccine dosages, a-12.5 µg and a 25-µg dose of receptor binding domain protein, to a placebo (1:1:1). A total of 40.6% of participants in this study experienced at least one adverse event (AE), with most being mild. There was no statistically significant difference in AEs between the groups. The microneutralization test showed the hig
