a. Dependent upon safety and/or immunogenicity data generated during the course of this study, or the
BioNTech study conducted in Germany (BNT162-01), it is possible that groups may be started at the next
highest dose, groups may not be started, groups may be terminated early, and/or groups may be added
with dose levels below the lowest stated dose or intermediate between the lowest and highest stated doses.
The vaccine candidate selected for Phase 2/3 evaluation is BNT162b2 at a dose of 30 µg.
6.1.1. Manufacturing Process
The scale of the BNT162b2 manufacturing has been increased to support future supply.
BNT162b2 generated using the manufacturing process supporting an increased supply
(“Process 2”) will be administered to approximately 250 participants 16 to 55 years of age,
per lot, in the study. The safety and immunogenicity of prophylactic BNT162b2 in
individuals 16 to 55 years of age vaccinated with material generated using the existing
manufacturing process “Process 1,” and with material from lots generated using the
manufacturing process supporting increased supply, “Process 2,” will be described.
In brief, the process changes relate to the method of production for the DNA template that
RNA drug substance is transcribed from, and the RNA drug substance purification method.
The BNT162b2 drug product is then produced using a scaled-up LNP manufacturing process.
6.1.2. Administration
Participants will receive 1 dose of study intervention as randomized at each vaccination visit
(Visits 1 and 4 for Phase 1 participants, Visits 1 and 2 for Phase 2/3 participants) in
accordance with the study’s SoA. The volume to be administered may vary by vaccine
candidate and dose level; full details are described in the IP manual.
